An Extraordinary General Meeting of the Isle of Man Athletics Association has been arranged.
Date: Monday 23rd January 2017
Time: 7pm
Venue: Hydro Hotel, Queens Promenade, Douglas
Statement:
Following a very disappointing attendance at the IOMAA AGM it was agreed the meeting would be adjourned and an EGM would be scheduled early 2017.
As it stands, there is not enough support for the IOMAA to continue. Unless volunteers step forward at this EGM to offer some of their time to help lighten the load on the existing volunteers the IOMAA will be dissolved.
Whilst the Islands athletics clubs will no doubt continue their great work, they will have to do so without funding support from IOM Sport. There will be many other consequences to the IOM Athletics Association being dissolved and there is an inevitability that opportunities for our athletes will be affected.
If enough people volunteer a little of their time to help our sport will continue to flourish.
