Incorrect. There is _no_ requirement to become incorporated. There are
numerous clubs/groups/societies out there receiving sponsorship without
such status. Becoming an Incorporated Society merely removes the onus of
liability from the members running the club/group, and places it with
the Society itself (among many other benefits).
