AGM
The AGM will be held on Wednesday 17 November 2010 at 7 30 pm in the Nelson.
Proposal for rule/constitution change are as follows:
1. No half rounder rule/ Get rid of 36 balls
2. Revert to 30 good balls
3. Semi finals of the cup to be played on a Thursday evening, final to be played on a Sunday afternoon.
4. Proposed that the game is ended after a winning innings is completed. The rounders scored will only be counted from the first innings.
5. It is proposed that the Constitution be changed regarding Committee Members. Committee Members who miss 3 consecutive meetings are automatically removed from the Committee unless they can justify their absence.
6. It is proposed that Division 1 and 2 discontinue with the 36 ball rule and revert to the old rules and Division 3 keep the 36 ball rule.
7. It is proposed that the League membership fee is increased to £50.00 per team, as this would give the League a good start to the season, especially when the commitment to tournaments and other social events is poor.

Several other proposals/suggestions were put forward but they were not a rule change.
These suggestions will be addressed at the AGM.
If you want to voice your opinion on these changes, then you must attend the meeting. Proxy votes will be accepted, but only up until Tuesday 16 November. These must be in writing. Any others after this date will not be accepted.
