In accordance with STA’s current Articles of Association, The President must be elected every year, David Matthew is stepping down.

 One third of the Directors must retire from office at each AGM, Riet Garsed is stepping down as Director of Referees. Other directors have been in post for the same time, and it was decided that those to retire at the AGM will additionally be selected by rotation. Therefore Director of Marketing/PR, Michael Bottom, will step down. 

The positions of Secretary and Treasurer must be elected every year. Both Ailsa Falconer and Hugh McMichael Senior respectively have opted to put themselves forward for re-election. However Ailsa Falconer would be happy to step aside if other nominations were forth coming.

 Any other members wishing to nominate themselves for any of the 5 positions above should submit their nominations to the STA Secretary (secretary@scottishtouch.org.uk) by Thursday 26th May or on the day itself.

Please note that all members can vote in the election of the President. Only the nominated representative from each of the Regional Associations are entitled to vote for the other positions.
