Delegate Nominations 2023

As set out in clause 12.4 of the ABSC Constitution, four “Elected Board Members” are to be appointed to the Board each year. These comprise two Players’ Delegates, a Women’s Delegate and a Disability Delegate, all of which are to be elected by the Ordinary Members in the event that the number of nominations exceed the number of roles. These positions reflect the desire of the Board and the State bodies to engage with the members directly and to enhance the governance and future of snooker and billiards in Australia.

The four elected positions are all “full Board member” positions with the successful candidates being actively involved in the Board and entitled to propose motions, vote etc. An overview of the role and responsibilities for the Players’, Women’s and Disability Delegates is provided with this announcement.

Interested members are now invited to nominate a member for these roles, using the attached nomination forms. These need to be signed by the nominator and the nominee, and must include a one-page biography of the nominee setting out relevant interests and experience. Please return all nomination forms to the ABSC Secretary General, Simon Fortune at secretary@absc.com.au by Wednesday 13 September 2023.
