OHHHHHHH yes Friday the 13th is unlucky for some and the Tallaght RFC AGM is opening the floor to all our members to elect the next committee and to agree any changes that you would like to see.
If any member would like to go forward to one of the most sought after positions please make your intentions known to the Tallaght President.
As you may be aware our Clubs AGM will take place on
Friday the 13th of May 2016
in the
Kiltipper Inn
Pub at 7:30 pm
I would encourage all members seeking appointment to make their intentions known as soon as possible, we will send out a “hustings” mail to all members both house and playing on
Monday
the 9th of
May 2015
This will allow all perspective candidates to canvass members who will not be in a position to attend on the night but who wish to cast their vote via email and/or proxy. If you want to be included in the hustings mail, please complete a biography of yourself and why you are seeking to be elected, the length, and style of you mail is up to you (please forward them on to tallaghtrfcpresident@gmail.
