AGM - 31 Mar 2019

We are holding our Annual General Meeting on Sun 31 Mar (7-8pm at the Riverside Suite, Keynsham Leisure Centre). This is a very important meeting and all members and their families should make every effort to attend.

As you know, Keynsham Leisure Centre will be closing for a 6 month refurbishment later this year, and it is essential that we have a strong committee to guide the club through this period. During the AGM we will be electing our new committee and voting on whether to accept some changes to our constitution (which explains how the club will be run).

The constitution was last updated in 2008. We needed to make a couple of changes to comply with RLSS UK policy, so we've taken this opportunity to incorporate a number of other minor changes to clarify how the club will be run:

> To include a clear commitment to child protection
> To clarify who is eligible to coach and how coaches will be appointed
> To introduce a 2-year term for committee members to help ensure the club has stable leadership
> To clarify the process for electing the committee

You can view the proposed constitution here.
