OFFICIAL NOTICE
This document serves as the official notice for the Badminton Canada 2024 AGM, to be held virtually on Thursday, September 26 at 7:00pm EST.
As per Badminton Canada's by-laws, one representative from each Member Association will
hold the voting rights for that Association.
If the representative attending the AGM is not the President or Chairperson of the Member
Association, a signed proxy form must be sent to the National Office by Thursday, September 19, 2024
indicating who the representative will be.
Member Associations are requested to provide the National Office a summary annual report for
the AGM package by September 12, 2024. Attached for your use is a report template should
you need it, otherwise Associations may provide the information in the format as wished. It is
expected that Member Associations include within their reporting, an audited financial
statement for the 2023/24 fiscal year as we would like to make the AGM package as complete
as possible for your review well in advance of the meeting.
Should any Member Association wish to propose general motions for consideration at the AGM
complete the attached motion form, attach a short rationale for the motion and forward it to
the National Office to be received no later than September 8, 2024.
It is Badminton Canada’s intention to send all documentation pertaining to this year’s Annual
General Meeting by electronic means only to Provincial/Territorial Presidents and office staff on
September 18, 2024. There will be no hard copies provided to Members.
All Members will be responsible to print the documentation prior to the meeting and bring said documentation with them to the meeting.
The Badminton Canada Board looks forward to hosting you virtually. Please feel free to
contact Bryan R. Merrett at the Ottawa Office at (613) 518-1501 extension 2083 should you require further
