REMINDER: Elections to be held for USA Wrestling Board of Directors Member At Large Positions

Share:

by USA Wrestling

Elections will be held in August for eight Member-at-Large positions on the USA Wrestling Board of Directors. These positions will be voted upon by the Board of Directors in their August 2010 meeting. A two-year commitment is required as the terms for these positions begin at the conclusion of the Board meeting and proceed for two years, through the 2012 Board of Directors meeting. Board members are responsible for helping set policies and direction for USA Wrestling. The Board meets once per year, usually in August. In addition, Board members may be asked to serve on USA Wrestling standing or ad hoc committees from time to time.

Any member with a current USA Wrestling membership card is eligible to serve on the Board as a Member-at-Large. Any current member may also nominate another USA Wrestling member for these positions. Prospective candidates may nominate themselves or be nominated by someone else. A nomination form is printed on this page. Candidates will be notified by the Steering Committee to determine if they wish to serve (if nominated by someone else) or to confirm receipt of the nomination if they nominate themselves.

To become a candidate for these positions:

1. Completely fill out the nomination form linked to this story. You must be a current 2010 USA Wrestling member and must provide your card number in the space provided. If you are not a member, contact your state chairperson for a card or go to http://www.themat.com/

2. Send the nomination form (and any material reinforcing your candidate's qualifications) to the address below for receipt no later than July 10, 2010. Once current membership is verified, the candidate will be contacted in confirmation of receipt of the nomination and to verify willingness to serve.

3. All verified nominations will be presented to the USA Wrestling Board of Directors at their next meeting. The election will be held at that time with the vote conducted by the USA Wrestling Board of Directors and the Steering Committee of the Board.

4. Any individual holding a membership card for the membership year September 1, 2009 to August 31, 2010 may nominate themselves or others with a current membership card.
