Due to time constraints for nominations and to comply with our constitution, the date for the TUOTR AGM has been moved until Sunday the 11th of April 2021. The new date will give clubs time to consider their nominations for the Board. We are looking for three or four new Board members that can bring skills to complement the continuing Board members. Those skills could include communication, waka ama administration systems, accounting, and XERO systems. If you have nominations for the Board positions please complete the attached nomination form and return via email to [email protected] by the 1st March 2021.
