This is to inform all members that the Tynemouth ASC Annual General Meeting will take place on Sunday, 4th December 2022 at 7pm. The AGM will be held via a Remote Meeting – the link will be generated nearer the time.

The AGM is an important part of the management of the club, it allows the current committee to review the year and discuss any important issues with club members.

The AGM is also an opportunity to appoint volunteers over the age of 18 who act as officers of the club as part of the committee for the coming year. The club welcomes anyone wishing to put themselves forward for a position on the committee and to be involved in helping to run the club.

Anyone wishing to put themselves forward for a position on the committee must be seconded by a current TASC member and, if elected, will become members of TASC themselves (if not a member already). If you are considering this but are not sure – please speak to the Chair or Secretary, or other committee members to find out more and ask any questions you may have.

The committee are all volunteers and are responsible for the smooth running of the club. It comprises of an executive committee (Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Treasurer) and up to nine other committee members.?Being involved means attending a committee meeting once each month and helping to make and action decisions in relation to the ongoing running of the club.

As a group of parent volunteers we are really keen to welcome new committee members to help with the day-to-day management of the club. The commitment ranges with all roles, and the more people we have, the more this is shared, the more support and ideas we collectively have, and the better outcomes we can have for those at the heart of it all – the swimmers.

There is a monthly committee meeting to attend, and several roles or tasks that are agreed between the members. We work together and support each other with these roles, and know it is a learning curve. No one is expected to know what they are doing straight away and we all learn from each other.

If you wish to make a positive contribution to the club, please do put forward a nomination - we welcome any and all help we can get. If you have a particular skill set that you feel would be suited to helping manage the club or, want to have a say in how the club is run, please submit a nomination by Sunday 6th November 2022. A link to submit your entry form has been sent out via email but if you are unsure please contact the club secretary.
