The committee will be holding an Extraordinary AGM on Thursday 13th February at 8pm at Aldersley Stadium in order to make a minor amendment to the club constitution.
Clause 2.14 currently states that “Any fully paid-up member who is selected for an Olympics or World Championship will automatically be awarded Honorary Life Membership”.
We feel that this is an exceptionally high bar for a club in our position and wish to propose a more fitting benchmark for those exceptional athletes in our ranks. New wording for this clause is proposed as follows:
“Any fully paid up member who is selected to represent Great Britain, or for any overseas athlete their national country, for an Olympic Games, World or European championship in any discipline will automatically be considered for Honorary Life Membership.”
We will put this new wording to a vote at the meeting and should everyone agree, the change to our constitution will be made. Any member is welcome to attend.
