Thank you to the 170 people who voted in the AGM.  Here is a link to the full results of the vote.

  • All candidates were duly elected
  • All Motions were passed, including the change in Statutes to set up a reserve fund, which required a 2/3 majority

For the indicative vote on padel:

  • Over 60% Of Members support the introduction of padel to the Club
  • Only the "levy" option comes close to a majority, with 73 people in favour, versus 81 against. While a substantial minority would support a Padel Founding Member approach (where a subset of Members contribute more for advantaged access), not enough Members (only 13) indicate interest to actually be a Founding Member.  Based on this, it would not generate anywhere near sufficient funds. 
  • Organic and "pay-to-play" financing could only get limited support (20-25% of people voting)

The MC is reflecting on these results and will return to Members with a proposal for an up/down vote in the coming months.
