Honorable Executive Council members
Elders of the Council
Society Chairmen and Secretaries
Ladies and gentlemen
It gives me great pleasure and privilege to present
our Society activities in the last one year.
MEMBERSHIP:
The membership strength of the Society for the present
2012/2013 football season is thirty made up of Grade I Rtd -10, FIFA Graded -1,
Grade I-10, Grade II-2, Grade III-5 and RIT-2. Although a far cry from our
previous number which use to be between 40-60. This could be attributed to lack
of interest and enthusiasm as most members especially the retired referees
claim they are not being offered match appointments at all levels. However, the
Society EXCO is making frantic efforts to convince them on the need to get
registered as there are now several competitions at the State Council level
that involve match commissioners.
SOCIETY
AGM/MEETINGS:
The Annual General Meeting of the Society was held on
the 9th March 2013 at the Council Secretariat where vital decisions
affecting the development and growth of the Society were seriously deliberated.
The council was ably represented by Mr. Moroof Aromona (Council Treasurer)
In line with the NRA statute our next Society General
Meeting is scheduled for 11th May 2013.
BANK
ACCOUNT:
As a result of bureaucracy and inconveniences
encountered with Union Bank Plc Ojuelegba we have suspended operating the
account. The Society intends to open an account with Access Bank Plc with the
effort of the Council Treasurer Mr. Moroof Aromona.
USE OF
NATIONAL STADIUM FACILITY:
On the advice of the Stadium Manager an official
letter was forwarded to his office on the use of the stadium facility for our
weekly keepfit/lectures. (Copied the State Council and the NRA) However, we are
still making use of the location situated between ramp G & H car park of
the National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos.
The Society still maintain her website www.lagosrefsociety.blog.com and her email remains lagrefsociety@yahoo.com
We wish the Council fruitful deliberations at this
year’s Annual General Meeting.
