Notice of motion for resolution to clauses 2.1, 13.2(a), 14, 15 and 16 of the BDAFA Constitution Notice emailed to Clubs 10/11/2014 was: As you are aware the new BDAFA Constitution was adopted by the clubs on 14 July this year. During the discussions leading up to and on the night of the vote for the constitution one of the key issues facing the clubs was how would future Boards of BDAFA be elected. If you refer to the current Constitution, it says simply that candidates for elected Director positions nominate for those positions. The Constitution also provides for appointed Directors. At the time of drafting the present Constitution, it was the intention that nominees for the position of elected Director be vetted by an independent nominations committee prior to being able to stand for election by the members. Following a review of the present Constitution with the interim Board, legal representatives from both FFA and Football NSW, it was concluded that while the intention and certainly the understanding was that a nominations committee would vet applications for elected Director positions, the Constitution is in fact is a little ambiguous on this issue and the interim Board, in consultation with Football NSW, decided that the best course of action was to propose amendments to the Constitution to clarify that: a. nominees for elected Director positions must be vetted by an independent nominations committee and only those nominees approved by the nomination committee be eligible to stand for election; and b. future Boards, having been vetted by the nominations committee and then duly elected by the members, may, subject clause 15 of the Constitution, appoint up to three appointed Directors. The interim Board believes that, in the interests of good governance and transparency for all candidates, BDAFA should at all times strive to have the best qualified and most committed individuals serve our sport. After lengthy discussions over a number of meetings, the interim Board identified a number of possible options to resolve the ambiguity. A copy of the amended Constitution was included with the notice. TLB read through and explained the amendments. TLB also discussed the election process.

Firstly, my thanks to Harry Sklaventis and his committee for your effort during your time in charge of football in Bankstown. 2014 has been based on a couple of key principles 1. Growing player numbers 2. Improving Governance 3. Improving relations with Stakeholders 4. Expanding football opportunities for those participating 5. Improving Facilities Following on from the successful football forum held in October, the new Committee developed our plan for the future, identifying the key areas that needed to be addressed. As everyone knows the Committee s mantra was to reverse the decline in player numbers over past seasons our vision was simple - Towards 10,000 and everything we have done or attempted to do is based on growing grassroots participation numbers. To our member clubs congratulations on working with us to achieve this primary goal. After almost a decade the new Constitution was adopted in July and saw the creation of a Board of management. The Board has also worked on ensuring we have processes in place to ensure that compliance is adhered to. I know I speak on behalf of the clubs when I pass on my personal thanks to our Administration Officer Dianne Graham for her commitment and growth in a very complex and difficult role. There were also a number of firsts, we launched the season by way of a function at the Sports Club, we introduced the BDAFA Cup, we entered a new partnership with the Bankstown City Lions, we had Under 12-Under 15 Regional Youth Squads, with the 14s and 15s making the semi-finals. We have also introduced a Skills Acquisition Program (SAP) for our under 9-11 players. We also purchased new Premiership shields for all Competitive sides and despite the wet weather cancelling our Gala Day also for our U6-U11 non Competitive sides. Thanks to DJ Trophies for their ongoing support for the non- Competitive participation trophies We continue to work with Council, Football NSW, local and state politicians for the development of the facilities across BDAFA. Earlier this year we made a submission to the State Government for $2.7m in funding which we anxiously await the outcome for. Proud Sponsors of BDAFA

To the Management Committee thank you for the contribution you have made not only this year but in many, many previous years; it is a thankless role to play. To Terry, Zoran, Ron and Laurie at the BFR thank you for the way in which the associations have worked constructively to improve on field performance on both sides. Discipline remains a problem and we need to support the BFR in their execution of the laws of the game. To the incoming BFR committee we look forward to further improving in the coming seasons. To all the players, coaches, managers and volunteers; particularly our Premiers Congratulations. To those sides who participated in both State Cup and Champion of Champions well done on your achievements and trust you gained from the experience of playing sides outside of Bankstown. Particularly to Revesby Rovers AA Mens and the Strikers U13 for your success and representing yourselves, your clubs and Bankstown in such a professional manner be proud of your achievements. To those who attended our Presentation Dinner I thank you and would like to pass on my gratitude do Dianne Graham and Susan Kanisek in particular for making the night a success. To all the award winners well done on a fantastic season. As season 2014 comes to a close, and we turn to look forward at 2015 and beyond there is still much to do. Not everything that is proposed will please everyone, but we will continue to work with the clubs to ensure that what is done is in the best interests of football and the long term success of BDAFA. I thank you for the trust you have placed in me, and I look forward to continue to grow opportunities for the development of Grassroots football in Bankstown for many years to come. Finally to the Board, Football NSW and the staff at Bankstown Council thank you for the ongoing support you have shown to us all as we continue to grow this game we love. In closing, on behalf of the BDAFA Board we would like to wish everyone a very relaxed and safe Festive Season and hope that 2015 is a successful New Year for all. Yours in Football, Trevor Le Breton Chairman Proud Sponsors of BDAFA

BANKSTOWN DISTRICT AMATEUR FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION Level 1, 116 Cahors Rd Padstow NSW 2211 Ph: 02 9771 3322 Email: admin@bankstownsoccer.com.au www.bankstownsoccer.com.au Well done to the Regional Youth League this year. Petar Finka and his coaches should hold their heads high with the success of their teams in 2014. With the introduction of SAP in 2015 the BDAFA development squads will grow to 128 players in total. This is the pathway BDAFA is developing for the talented players in our Association and District. These kids will now be the show piece for the Association and we wish them every success in the 2015 season. The Grand Finals were a huge success this year. The Ladies Competition finished with a bang at Marco Reserve with Panania taking out the Division 1 premiership. The Premier League finished off their season in grand style in front of a crowd around 2,000 at Kelso with Thistles taking out the Premiership. By seasons end everyone let down their hair at the annual BDAFA dinner which was a major success on the night. Well done to all the winners on the night. W we look forward to seeing them, as well as all the other players, again on the field in 2015. Have a safe and wonderful Christmas and New Year. I look forward to seeing you all again in 2015. Lastly, I would like to give a big thank you all the unseen partners of the BDAFA Board, MC and Club Committee members and volunteers. It is your support that allows your partners to put themselves forward and volunteer their time in helping their Clubs and our Association to grow and prosper. Without you there would be no BDAFA. I truly thank you all. Yours in Football, Scott Farquharson Secretary Proud Sponsors of BDAFA
