We call for nominations for directors of the BNSW Board to be elected by members at the 2023 AGM.

There are two (2) member elected director positions available for election at the 2023 AGM.  Two (2) of those positions are a result of directors retiring following the expiry of their three-year term.

Accordingly, we call for nominations for directors to fill those two (2) vacancies for 3-year terms each.

All nominations must be lodged using the nomination form with requested support material and submitted via email to [email protected] by 5:00 pm 31 March 2023.

Please note that this year the Nominations Committee will be chaired by Carolyn Campbell, currently director of Volleyball Australia and Bankstown Sports Club (formerly Chair of Sports NSW).  The Nominations Committee will focus on director attributes and skill category requirements to bolster the Board’s effectiveness to implement and oversee its Strategy.
