Board Members
Three directors will step down, two with the intention of seeking re-election. Ron Ashby will be stepping down due to the term of his co-option ending, David Jackson (Treasurer & Secretary) will be stepping down in accordance with the club’s constitution regarding rotation of the club board, and Stewart Dee will be stepping down from the board due to moving to Edinburgh.
The club would like to thank Stewart for all he has done in the four years he has been part of the Board. In particular, for taking on the role of Match Secretary after Ray Baggott retired.
There are six directors remaining, so will be a maximum of six vacancies for the club board. With both David Jackson and Ron Ashby intending to seek re-election, the club are encouraging anyone else who feels they can make a difference to stand for election to the Board and help us continue to push the club in the right direction.
