AGM - November 21, 2026
Dear BCLA Members,
Please save the date for the 2026 British Columbia Lacrosse Association Annual General Meeting, which will be held on:
Saturday, November 21, 2026
Additional information regarding the time, location/meeting format, registration and AGM materials will follow.
As members are aware, the BCLA is currently undertaking work related to the Association’s governance structure and bylaws. As a result, there remains some uncertainty regarding which set of bylaws will govern the November AGM.
To ensure members are not disadvantaged by that uncertainty, the BCLA is proceeding conservatively and providing members with the opportunity to submit proposed bylaw and/or operating policy amendments in accordance with the timelines applicable under the BCLA’s current governance documents.
Under the current BCLA Bylaws, proposed amendments or alterations to the Constitution or Bylaws must be submitted in writing to the BCLA Office at least 45 days prior to the meeting.
Accordingly, members wishing to submit proposed bylaw amendments for consideration at the November 21 AGM should provide them to the BCLA Office no later than:
Wednesday, October 7, 2026
We also ask that any proposed amendments to BCLA Operating Policy intended for consideration through the current AGM process be submitted by the same date.
Providing this opportunity should not be interpreted as a determination that the current governance structure will necessarily be the structure under which the November AGM is conducted. Rather, it is intended to preserve members’ opportunity to submit proposed amendments should the current Bylaws and processes remain applicable.
This is a Save the Date and call for submissions only. It is not the formal Notice of Annual General Meeting.
The BCLA will issue the formal Notice of AGM, together with the applicable meeting information and materials, in accordance with the notice requirements of the BC Societies Act and the bylaws governing the meeting at that time.
Voting members will be as defined by the current bylaw; Bylaw III Membership and pursuant to the BC Societies Act, the voting structure will be 1 member - 1 vote.
Further information will be provided to members as it becomes available.
Thank you,
Jill Krop
Executive Director
BC Lacrosse Association
Deadline Wednesday, Oct 7, 2026 by 4:00 pm for all Proposed By-Laws & Operating Policies
