BOA AGM

Sunday 4^th July, Park Inn, Sheffield.

All members are welcome and are encouraged to attend the AGM. This is your chance to elect the Committee and tell them how you want to see the BOA run.

There will be an agenda item discussing whether players should be allowed to move between teams within their own squads during a tournament.

Ie; - Currently - once a player has been chosen for a team for the semi finals they may not change teams for the finals. (ie: from the B team to the A team or vice versa).

The proposal is that a player should be allowed to move between teams within their own squads at any time.
