Macquarie University Australian Football Club
Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting
Dear Players, Parents and MUAFC Alumni,
As some of you may already be aware, the MUAFC Committee, along with Sydney AFL, has been in discussions for the last few weeks with Macquarie University and U@MQ, with regards to progressing the club towards a formal affiliation with the University. U@MQ has been working towards affiliating all sporting clubs that bear the Macquarie University brand for some time, and we’re excited to announce that MUAFC is earmarked to be the first to affiliate. In accordance with our constitution, we therefore are required to call an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) so that all financial members can vote to move forward with the affiliation process.
What will “affiliation” mean? For the majority of players, there will be little or no impact to you. If anything, you’re likely to see greater involvement from Macquarie University, and greater access to the facilities offered by U@MQ. From an administration perspective, there will be greater accountability and governance required by the committee, but given where we see the club going in the next few years; we see this is a good thing and essential to our growth and success with Sydney AFL.
Representatives from MU Sport and Recreation, Sydney AFL and of course the MUAFC Committee will be in attendance at this EGM to answer any questions you may have.
Agenda for the meeting is as follows;
-
6:00pm: Welcome and Introductions
-
6:05pm: Conclusion of 2011 AGM and presentation of financials for 2011
-
6:15pm: Affiliation of MUAFC with Macquarie University and U@MQ
-
6:45pm: Meeting close (expected)
-
6:45pm: Training commences
All players intending on playing for MUAFC in season 2012 are required to attend. We thank you for your support and look forward to seeing you there.

MUAFC Committee
