Annual General Meeting 12th March 2024. Motion Result.

Proposals / Motions

Match Sec A Scott, proposed to reduce the number of rinks from four to three thus reducing the number of players from 16 to 12 for league games.

He went on to give a detailed explanation as to the reasoning behind his proposal. A discussion then ensued, culminating in an amendment being proposed by K Girdler (Balerno) for the “Status Quo”. Seconded by R Hendry (Sighthill), that the Leagues remain at four rinks of 16 players.

The Secretary C Brown then called a vote on the amendment, resulting in 6 clubs voting for the amendment (Bainfield, Balerno, Gorgie Mills, Juniper Green, Sighthill and Slateford.) and 6 clubs voting against. (Ardmillan, Beechwood, Carrickknowe, Colinton, Currie and Fountain)

With the vote ending in a tie, the Association President R Fairgrieve, used his casting vote to vote for the amendment.

 

Status Quo, four rinks, 16 players, carried by 7 votes to 6.
