NOTICE OF 2026 AGM

The 2026 Greensborough Hockey Club AGM is on Monday 7 December 2026 at 7.30 pm at the GHC clubrooms, Plenty War Memorial Park, Memorial Drive, Plenty. This is our 66th Annual General Meeting.

GHC’s future belongs to all of us

We want members and parents to come along, take an interest and help shape the future of Greensborough Hockey Club. The AGM is more than an annual meeting or a series of reports. It is an opportunity to understand where our Club stands, ask questions and take part in the decisions and conversations that will influence its future.

GHC matters to people for different reasons. For some, it is their children’s first experience of hockey and belonging to a team. For others, it is playing, coaching, competing at a high level, volunteering, spending time with friends or being part of the local community. All of those experiences deserve a place in thinking about what our Club should become.

Why your involvement matters

Strong teams and enjoyable hockey experiences depend on more than what happens on the field. They also depend on good coaching, welcoming programs, reliable facilities, responsible finances and people willing to help. The choices GHC makes about these things affect juniors, adults, families and volunteers alike.

Those choices should not be left to a small group simply because they already do much of the work. The Committee has a particular responsibility for guiding the Club, but the wider membership has an important part to play. Members and parents can bring fresh perspectives, raise priorities and help the Club understand what matters to the people it serves.

You do not need committee experience or detailed knowledge of club administration to contribute. You might have an idea about junior development, a concern about how volunteers are supported, or a view about the opportunities GHC should offer in the years ahead. Equally, you might simply want to understand how decisions are made and how you can be involved.

By attending, listening and asking questions, you help make the Club’s future a shared responsibility.

2026 AGM: voting and participation

Only financial members are eligible to vote. Under the updated GHC Constitution, each junior membership from Hockey Victoria Under 12 competition players upwards carries one vote. The parent or legal guardian registered with the Club as responsible for that member exercises that vote.

Whether or not you are eligible to vote, we encourage you to read the meeting information and take an interest in GHC’s direction. Formal participation at the meeting will follow the Constitution and meeting procedures.

AGM notice, agenda and forms

Come and be part of GHC’s next chapter

Please make the time to attend on Monday 7 December. We especially encourage parents, junior and adult players, coaches, volunteers and supporters to take an active interest. A Club that listens to its members and plans for the future together is better placed to offer great hockey and a strong community for years to come.
