ProTen AGM date set


The Proten Cup committee has set it’s date for the 2025 Annual General Meeting, to be held at the Griffith Southside Leagues Club on Thursday the 23rd October starting at 6pm.

The AGM will begin the 2026 season, set to be the eighth iteration of the competition after beginning in 2018. All positions are open and everyone is encouraged to put their hand up to volunteer as a director. Any items for the agenda or nominations for office bearers please send to Brad Lawrence or Brooke Streat. Crucial decisions around the future of the competition including participating teams, length & make-up of the draw, and competition rules will be decided.

Thanks are to be given to all the directors who have volunteered to run the rural competition, with many travelling far to attend meetings especially in the competition’s initial set-up stages in 2018.
