> Expecting a club administrator to be able to drop a uniqueness key from their database in order to resolve this situation is not a reasonable solution!

Especially since if you have any FK relationships, and that was the only candidate key for the members relation (and why have such a bad key if it's not the only one), you then need to add new attributes to create a new key, populate it to all existing roles, change all existing FK relationships and associated queries, on top of the easy part, which is dropping the old unique constraint.
