AGM 2019 8 of 8

8. Nominations now open


Nominations now open for positions to serve on the Committee for 2019-2020 season

Our constitution allows for nine Club members to serve on the general Committee to oversee the everyday running of the Club. Two Club members may also be co-opted to serve.

All Club members are entitled to become Committee members and need just one other Club member to nominate them.

All Club members (or parent / guardian of those under 18) have a right to make a nomination under Rule 9.3.1 of the Club Constitution. All such nominations, made with the agreement of the candidate, must reach the Secretary by email at secretary@chesterfieldpanthers.com no later than 26th June (21 days prior to the date of the AGM).

Three Committee members by law are the Officers of the Club.

• The position of Honorary Secretary has one more year to run.
• The position of Honorary Treasurer is open for election at this AGM.
• The position of Honorary Chair is elected from Committee members at the first meeting following the AGM.

The position of Honorary President is also open for election at this AGM.

Persons being nominated for Committee membership should read carefully the Committee Code of Conduct document to be found on our website www.chesterfieldpanthers.com. The document outlines the principles and procedures which have been adopted by CPRUFC Committee. Committee members are responsible for determining, monitoring and keeping under review the broad policies, plans and procedures of the Club.

Proposals for additions or alterations to the Rules or for any other motion must reach the Secretary no later than 26th June (21 days prior to the date of the AGM), at which the addition, alteration or motion will be voted on duly proposed by one member and seconded by another.

Confirmation of the arrangements will be sent no later than two weeks before the AGM, including the Agenda of the business to be considered (including all nominations or proposals made under the provisions described above) together with a copy of the Club’s Financial Statement for the preceding financial year.

Items to be addressed under Any Other Business (AOB) on the Agenda should reach the Secretary no later than 10th July (one week prior to the date of the AGM).

Your attendance at the AGM will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your continued support.
