The  Committee is essential to the organisation and running of TUHA activities. Without the dedicated efforts of the volunteers who perform the duties of each of the Committee positions, the sport would not operate in our State.

The TUHA Committee members are elected by TUHA members at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). A call for nominations for the Committee positions is made in the lead up to the AGM and any TUHA member may nominate a fellow TUHA member or herself/himself for one or more of the Committee positions. Such nominations are normally made via in writing to the TUHA Secretary or to the TUHA President. Nominations can also be made during the elections at the AGM itself.
