2nd August 2025 Notice to Volleyball Tauranga Club members :
Stewart Henderson long time Chairperson of Volleyball Tauranga Club unexpectedly resigned his role on 23rd May, 2025. Stu indicated his love of coaching is outweighing interest in our current special project of the Club gaining Incorporated Society status . This project has been ongoing for many years now and requires our urgent attention to enable structure changes and surety within the Club. David Hill has been invited and accepted the role of Interim Chairperson to see our Club through this complex process and meet the legal requirements before the deadline of 5th April 2026. This specific task will be well served by David in supporting us through this process.
Club activity is well managed by our Leagues Manager Keith Marsh and will continue with Term 4 planning completed and ready to go. The Club Rep programme will continue this season as already planned but as earlier signalled will be under full review for 2026.
Below is a brief Bio of introduction for you.
David Hill
David recently returned to Tauranga from varied roles of commercial management across NZ.
His long association with Volleyball in Tauranga as a player (last century...!), coach at a local College and Senior rep team is an indication of his passion for the game.
David’s experience in setting up Incorporated Societies generally around local Town Centre organisation will be easily transferred to our Sports Club.
His extensive Board experience locally and nationally (including not for profit and those with a Community focus) will be invaluable for our current management team. With 30 years of Commercial Management experience including 22 years managing multi tenant organisations his advice will be quite relevant to managing a Sports Club in this modern era.
A local business owner we are extremely privileged to have him offer his expertise and experience as a Volunteer for this transition period.
The Task Force Committee to follow this through is David Hill, Jenny Kirk , Paul Ake, Keith Marsh.
