As HBBA continues to grow, prepares for the transition to our new stadium, and seeks to support our expanding programs and community, it is important that our governance structures are clear, fit-for-purpose, and support our long-term sustainability. The purpose of this meeting is to promote engagement through providing members and club representatives additional information on the proposed structure and the intent behind it, as well as the opportunity to ask questions about how the structure will operate, the responsibilities of each role, and the commitments involved if taking on a volunteer position.
📍Meeting Details: Hervey Bay Lakes Room (inside Hervey Bay RSL)
⏰5:30pm - 7pm
Meeting Agenda:
✅The intent and principles behind the updated governance framework
✅What this means for the future direction of Hervey Bay Basketball Association
✅Overview of the proposed structure of the Management Committee Subcommittees, and Volunteer role portfolios
✅Q&A on the proposed structure and volunteer roles (Pre-submitted questions, questions from the floor)
✅Process for nominating for Management Committee roles and submitting EOIs for Subcommittee roles
✅Overview of how the AGM will run
We recognise that strong associations are built through collaboration, shared understanding, and respectful conversation. Members are encouraged to submit their questions on the proposed structure and volunteer roles in advance via the link below, to ensure the Management Committee can provide considered responses and suitable time can be allocated on the night.
Questions form Link - form.jotform.com/260320819868060
