Nomination for new committee members.
The 2017 FIT committee is calling for nominations for a range of committee positions, to be elected at the AGM. Many current committee members plan to renominate for 2017; however, others are stepping down. FIT members can nominate for any position on the committee and a vote will be taken at the meeting. However, known positions which will become vacant by current committee members are:
- President
- Coaching coordinator
- Communications Officer
- Policy and Insurance Officer
- Ordinary committee member x 1
We are also looking for new ongoing volunteers:
- Newsflash Editor
- Facebook Officer
- Webmistress
The filling of these positions is critical to ensure that FIT remains a functional club.
Current committee members are all available to chat with any FIT members who are interested in nominating for a committee position. Please send an email with your phone number to enquiries@fitact.org.au and a committee member will be in touch.
The positions carry a good degree of responsibility, with FIT a legal entity established under the Associations Incorporations Act 1991. For a copy of the rules governing FIT, and further information about the responsibilities of the committee, please see our policies.
There is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes to keep FIT running (and swimming, and cycling and water-running). While there are often a lot of challenging issues to be researched, discussed and decided by the committee, being a part of the committee is also a rewarding and satisfying experience and provides you with a chance to give back to the club that gives so much.
Please consider nominating for one of these positions, and feel free to chat to any current or previous committee members or non-committee volunteers for further information.
Please provide your completed nomination form to enquiries@fitact.org.au by Friday 17 November 2017.
To nominate for one of the ongoing volunteer positions you don’t need to complete a nomination form, please simply email enquiries@fitact.org.au.
