How do I run an Annual Meeting?

An Annual Meeting is a meeting held every year that all club members are invited to attend. The purpose of an Annual Meeting is to give members a report on the club's activities and finances for the previous year, to allow time for members to ask questions, and to elect members of your executive committee for the coming year.

Your club's Annual Meeting should occur before the 30th of April each year.

Prior to your Annual Meeting, you must:
  • Provide a minimum of seven days' notice to all club members in writing via email or direct mail.
  • Provide a meeting agenda to all club members before the meeting. An agenda template can be found HERE.
  • Provide a minimum of seven days' notice to the Clubs Support staff via email – if you would like a USASA representative present for this meeting, please state this (this might not be possible if the meeting is held off-campus or outside of business hours).
At the Annual Meeting, you must:
  • Collect an attendance list personally signed by all attendant members. This list must include each attendee's name and must be signed by the member. You can find a template HERE.
  • Take minutes from this meeting which include details of each process. You can find a template HERE.
  • Office bearers (President, Secretary, and Treasurer) present yearly reports.
  • Call nominations for executive positions according to the club's Rules of Governance.
  • Conduct voting as per the club's constitution.
After the Annual Meeting, you must:

Until the Clubs Support staff receive a copy of your Annual Meeting minutes, the previous executive will be considered the current executive. Failing to hand in Annual Meeting minutes to the Club's Support staff within ten business days of the meeting may result in the disaffiliation and deactivation of the club.

 

You can find a short training course on running an Annual Meeting here.
