AGM next Sunday at 3pm in Baile Doite

Post date: Jan 2, 2012 2:27:25 PM

The 2011 AGM of Cumann Iománaíocht Máigh Cuilinn takes place on Sunday January 8th 2012 at the clubhouse in Baile Doite, beginning at 3 pm and with the intention of concluding business at 6.00 pm. The AGM has been delayed this year due the extraordinary circumstances of the year. We were playing Championship in London on the 27th November and our under 15s were winning the City league two weeks later. The officers have been busy right up to Christmas with orders for gear, DVDs and calendars so time has been needed to prepare for the AGM.

This years AGM will incorporate the whole club adult and juvenile and we will be complying with the format laid down by the Club Constitution set out for all clubs by Central Council and adopted by CIMC several years ago. The business of the AGM is to consider the reports of officers, elect an Executive Committee of at least 14 people to run the club and pass motions to direct policy for the year (s) ahead.

The relevant extracts from the Club Constitution are contained below

2011 has been a most successful year for the club through the efforts of a whole range of people, not only the Executive but those working in a multitude of formal and adhoc committees. The most structured of these is our Juvenile Committee but each Management team, Pitch Committee, Finance Committee, School’s program have different working away to promote hurling and our club and provide a social outlet for young and old in our community. This year we have had several special groups working, the large task of Feile, our Cul Camp, our Heritage project, our pop-up shop, our homecomings, our trips to Clooney and London, our Commemorative calendar and of course our social. Nor should we forget our delegates and those who represent us at County level and on various Committees, who have also achieved much this year.

If you see a role for yourself as an officer or want to be then have two paid up Full members of the club nominate you and submit the nomination form to the Secretary by 3pm on Saturday 7th January. Nomination forms can be emailed to the Secretary at secretary.moycullenhurling.galway@gaa.ie or dropped to Secretary, Moycullen Hurling Club, c/o Centra, An Fuaran, Moycullen.

Motions for the AGM (proposed by paid up Full Members) should be submitted in the same fashion.

The club has an exciting year in front of it in 2012 so don’t hang back
