UKA Members – formerly the UK Member’s Council are the formal members of UK Athletics Limited (UKA) and undertake the powers and duties as set out in the Articles of Association.

A casual vacancy now exists within the membership of UKA to represent Track & Field clubs from across the UK. Nominations are therefore invited for one representative member from Affiliated Clubs practicing Track & Field Athletics. Under the terms of the Articles of Association any appointment decision to fill a casual vacancy is undertaken by the existing Members and will result in successful applicant being co-opted as a Member of UKA until the AGM in December of this year, being the end date of the original Member appointment.

Nominations are therefore invited for one representative Member of Clubs practising Track & Field Athletics and the closing date for receipt of nominations is Friday 30th April 2021 at 12:00 noon. A Nomination Form and details of the role are available to download. UKA is also in the process of writing to the secretaries of all clubs as well to highlight this opportunity.

If you choose to nominate a representative, please return the nomination form duly completed and signed, along with a personal resume of the nominee, to a maximum of 250 words, by email to elections@uka.org.uk. Please address any queries to companysecretary@uka.org.uk.
