annualgeneralmeetings

The Temple Fortune FC first held an Annual General Meeting in June 1977 after forming its inaugural Management Committee in the February of that year.

The first Meeting was located at the Alyth Youth Centre, part of the North Western Reform Synagogue in Alyth Gardens, Temple Fortune. A small room was hired which remains the only time the Club has paid for hall hire to stage the AGM.

For the next seven years Meetings were staged at 'Woodside', which was the Kyte family home at One Oakfields Road, NW11. The house was located next to Princes Park where the Club first originated as Temple Fortune Town in December 1968. Woodside was the Club's headquarters for many years until the Club's Chairman Nigel Kyte moved to Hendon, taking everything to do with the Club with him!

After many years of having Club Members host the Meetings, the proposed host was unable to use his house in June 2001 which forced the Club to hastily arrange a venue at short notice. The PizzaExpress in Mill Hill Broadway came to the rescue and this pleasant location became the home for subsequent AGM for several years.

The AGM has always been held during the month of June, the earliest being the 1st in 1992 and the latest being the 26th in 2005 and again in 2011. The event was first held on a Sunday morning in June 1993 and has remained on this day ever since. The record attendance came in 1989 when 20 members attended the Meeting held at the home of Jeremy Fess, the fewest being only five members four years earlier. On the occasions when annual awards were not presented at the Club Dinner, they were given out at the AGM.

The lack of records and the passing of time has rendered certain details of AGMs staged prior to the 1984/85 season unknown. If anyone is able to shed any light on earlier Annual General Meetings, please kindly email the Club on info@tffc.co.uk.

Season 2011/12 saw the AGM held at PizzaExpress in Mill Hill Broadway for the tenth time, overtaking the nine occasions that it had been hosted by the Kyte family in Oakfields Road. Nick Waitsman's home staged four AGMs whilst Tony Espinoza hosted three.

At the end of the 2019/20 season, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the AGM was cancelled at SJP and was conducted via Zoom thanks to the lockdown situation. Since 1993 the AGM has been held on a Sunday morning, a long run which was broken by the 2020 Meeting being staged on a Thursday for the first time since 1988.

The Club would like to express sincere thanks to the various Officers who kindly offered their homes to stage the Annual General Meeting over the years. In particular, special mention goes to both Nick and Tony for their hospitality on so many occasions between them.

The annual reports from both the Chairman and General Secretary since 2002/03 are available via the link at the bottom of this page. Reports for previous seasons – in addition to full minutes of many Annual General Meetings of the Club – are available from Nigel Kyte in paper form.
