Dear [[firstname]]
The Extraordinary General Meeting earlier announced will be held on Sunday November 1 at 7pm at the club.
The attached document contains a link to the formal EGM notice with the resolutions as well as links to other supporting documents.
The Council believes that the Club's long-term future depends on it becoming an incorporated company that directly owns its own premises. The business of the EGM involves proposals to change the club’s legal status to that of a Limited Company (incorporation) and to ask for members’ approval for actions required to transfer club property from the present holding company – Duffield Sports Club Limited (DSCL).
The five squash directors of DSCL dispute that their role is limited to that of a holding company and are unwilling to transfer the property should members vote for incorporation. The other DSCL directors support the transfer.
The attached document also includes a link to both a note the squash directors have asked us to circulate to members stating their position, and the Council’s response to the claims in this note.
The proposed new Articles of Association, which would be the governing document of the incorporated club, can also be accessed, as well as leaflets and more detailed explanatory documents about incorporation and the resolutions we are asking you to support.
We realise that there is a lot of information to absorb, but feel free to approach council members if you would like to discuss any aspect, or put your questions in writing to secretary@duffieldrf.club and send by noon on Tuesday October 27, 2026.
This is a pivotal moment in the club’s history, and we hope to bring members together to forge a new, secure future. The EGM is an opportunity to hear your voice so we hope you will read the information and use your vote. Information on voting procedures will be sent out soon.
Glyniss Wigram
