Two members of the Council have indicated that they will not stand for re-election at the next AGM, leaving only five. Our Constitution states that there shall be eight members and that a quorum for a meeting shall be five, so that the absence of one member destroys the authority of the meeting.
Besides this formal point, there is a great deal of work to be done in regulating and planning for the development of croquet in Ireland..
Of the present members, four are A class players, whose personal focus is on competitive and international play. We would particularly like to see new members who will be enthusiastic to work with clubs and for the development of social and garden croquet.
The AGM will, we hope, be held in May, so now is the time to get your nominations in. However, new members may be co-opted onto the Council at any time, so just
