So Smithy, are able to fill us in on who's currently appointed and who's elected?
And have you and Steve been replaced, or are there vacancies at the moment?
I thought this was about NZF?
Steve was elected. I was co-opted. So Steve's resignation will trigger an election at the next AGM.
If it's about effecting change at NZF, and the Federations elect three of seven NZF Board members, then it is also about understanding how to influence your Federation's vote at the NZF Congress. That involves knowing who is on your Federation Board and, in particular, who is elected and therefore (in theory, not always in practice) a representative of the clubs.
It beggars belief that despite all the "NZF are shit" platitudes nobody really seems to understand or care about this stuff. It seems people would rather donate $10 and write a derisory comment on Givealittle.com than actually try and engage in any meaningful sense.
It's been said before but we really do get the football governance we deserve in this country.
