An important element of the AGM to be held online on 6 September 2020 is the election of officers. This democratic process is even more important this year as we seek to deal with the coronavirus crisis, to ensure that chess in Wales remains and continues in a healthy state. It would be good to see a new, younger generation of volunteers taking an active role in the governance and management of chess in Wales.
We need volunteers to stand for election to the following offices; if you are interested and think you can make a worthwhile contribution to the WCU, please let me know (email to deputyexecutivedirector@welshchessunion.uk) by 24 August.
Notes:
- The post of Development Director may be split into two – for North and South Wales
- The positions of Commercial Director and Manager of Online Chess are appointments by the management Board and not subject to election.
Paul Scott
Deputy Executive Director
