S&DCA AGM Notice

 

General Secretary Geoff Brown has issued an e-mail with dates of the 2026 S&DCA AGM and Fixture Meeting, attaching papers for the AGM, and calling in all trophies.  The e-mail (actually sent in two parts) reads as follows:

 

Hi everyone

 

Please take this email as notice of the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Sheffield & District Chess Association.  It will be held on Tuesday, 8th September, starting at 7.30 pm, at The Trades & Labour Club, 200 Duke Street, Sheffield S2 5QQ.  The agenda and minutes from last year were attached to the email I sent a few minutes ago.  If you haven't received them then let me know and I'll send you them again.

 

Remarkably, there are only two rule change proposals this year.  I've received nothing else. It could be a short meeting for a change.

 

I'd like to remind any clubs that are holding Association trophies that they should be returned to me at the AGM so that I can arrange to have them engraved before presenting to the 2025-26 winners at the Fixture Meeting (which will also be at the Trades & Labour Club on Tuesday 22nd September).

 

I've taken the opportunity of attaching a blank Club Information Sheet.  Can club secretaries ensure that these are returned as soon as possible please, but no later than 31st August 2026.  Copies of the form should also be sent to the President Andrew Hards, Treasurer Pete Micklethwaite and Webmaster Steve Mann.  Note that the first league fixtures this year are likely to be in the week commencing Monday 28th September.

 

Best wishes

 

Geoff Brown

Gen Sec, S&DCA
