Langwarrin Soccer Club’s Annual General Meeting is one of the most important dates on the club calendar. It is where members come together to hear about the year that has been, understand the club’s future direction, and elect the committee that will help guide the club forward.
The 2026 Annual General Meeting will be held on Tuesday, 13 October 2026.
We will also be holding an information night on Thursday, 1st October at 7.30pm for anyone who would like to learn more about getting involved with the club as a volunteer or joining the committee. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, understand what is involved, and see how you may be able to contribute. All members are welcome.
As a community, volunteer-run, not-for-profit club, Langwarrin Soccer Club relies on mums, dads, family members and supporters giving their time to keep the club operating. Despite what some people think These are not paid roles. They are filled by people within our club community who give their time and expertise and want to contribute, support our players, and ensure the club continues to provide football opportunities for everyone.
Over the past five years, there has been a noticeable drop-off in members willing to volunteer their time, skills and expertise, while at the same time the club has grown substantially along with members expectations on what the club should provide. Too often it is forgotten that the club is run by volunteers who are giving up their spare time, around work, family and other commitments, to keep things operating for the benefit of our players and members.
At each AGM, the club must appoint four key executive positions: President, Vice President, Treasurer and Secretary. These positions are vital to the governance and legal operation of the club. Under our constitution, if these roles are not filled, the club cannot legally operate.
This is why member involvement is so important. Without volunteers stepping forward, the club simply cannot continue to function. It is not fair or sustainable to expect the same people, many of whom have given years of service to the club, to continue carrying the responsibility indefinitely.
Some current committee members have served the club for close to 10 years. Their commitment has helped Langwarrin Soccer Club grow, develop and support thousands of players and families. But for the club to have a strong future, new volunteers must come forward, learn the roles, share the workload, and help shape the next chapter of the club.
You do not need to have all the answers or years of experience to get involved. What matters most is a willingness to help, work as part of a team, and contribute to the ongoing success of the club. Support and handover can be provided, and every person who steps forward makes a real difference.
We strongly encourage all members to attend the AGM and consider whether they can contribute in some way. Whether that is by nominating for an executive role, joining the general committee, assisting with a specific area, or encouraging someone suitable to put their hand up, your involvement matters.
Langwarrin Soccer Club belongs to its members. Its future depends on people within our community continuing to volunteer, contribute and support the club.
