The Annual General Meeting of the Sunraysia Table Tennis Association was held on the 13th August, 2021 at the Sacred Heart Tennis Clubrooms. It was a great relief to have the meeting, as it had been postponed three times due to COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions.
President Mark Dorman presented his report on activities for the last twelve months, and also the highlights of his time as president and committee member of the S.T.T.A., as he was stepping down from both positions. Mark has been involved with the running of the association since about the age of 15. Also stepping down was Treasurer Chris Carmichael, who was also finishing a term as treasurer of close to 30 years. Both these tireless workers will be missed, although they have not cut ties completely, and are only a phone call away!!
The composition of the committee is therefore the most changed for some time.
Peter Fitzpatrick, Vice-President since 2018 was elected President, Mark Ljubic returns as Vice-President, and Sabrina Fitzpatrick has taken on the role of Treasurer. No Assistant-Treasurer was appointed, although it can be imagined that Sabrina’s husband, Peter, will be co-opted to that position!! Gavin Carmichael remains in the position of Secretary.
Three General Committee members were appointed – Terry Martin, Wayne Carmichael and Russell Walder.
We all look forward to an upcoming successful twelve months.
