AYRSHIRE GOLF ASSOCIATION AGM , MEMBERSHIP FIGURES AND 2021 EXTENDED COMPETITIONS

Due to the ongoing global pandemic, approval was sought from member clubs to deal with AGM business, due to be discussed at the AGM on 20th October, by way of written submission and approval, or otherwise, for one year only, due to the exceptional circumstances.

The proposal to deal with business in this manner attracted no dissenters, and in the event 25 member clubs, over 1/3 of the membership, submitted their responses which resulted in unanimous approval of the eleven proposals for the AGM.

The fists six proposals were for approval of the 2019 AGM minutes and adoption of the President's report, Financial report, Coaching report, Course rating report and Ayrshire Junior Golf League report.


President
John W Watt

Vice President
Scott Gilchrist


Again, in recognition of the exceptional circumstances in 2020, proposals that John W Watt (Prestwick St Cuthbert) and Scott Gilchrist (Loudoun) serve a further one year term as President and Vice President respectively, were approved.











Alasdair Malcolm (Prestwick St Cuthbert) was re elected Secretary/Treasurer for 2020 - 2021.

Mike Hazlewood (Ayr Neptune), Andy Gilligan (Troon St Meddans) and Barry O'Rourke (Loudoun) were all re elected to The Executive for a further 3 year period. whilst Hugh McKenzie (Troon Welbeck) Willie McCormick (Ayr Seafield) and Allan Muir (Caprington) stood down from The executive and did not seek re election.

The Executive proposal that the per capita for 2020 - 2021 be set at £2.50, a reduction of 10 pence, was approved, whilst the Scottish Golf per capita payment remained at £14.50.


In early November all member clubs were circulated by email with the 2020 - 2021 membership returns form, with a request that these be submitted to the Area Secretary by the end of November at the latest.

Invoices for payment will thereafter be sent out to member clubs towards the end of 2020.

Entry forms for the extended county matchplay competitions in 2021 will be forwarded by email to member clubs in the near future
