 However, members are also required to pay other fees for Union projects.These include sponsoring the Jiul Petroşani soccer team (which the Union supports because this team represents the Jiu Valley), as well as funds for the local miner's sports clubs (almost each mine has a soccer team, though Lupeni also has a rugby team, and Aninoasa also has an archery club and a kind of bowling team).According to Romanian law, union representatives must be employees of the institutions/companies whose workers they represent.
