The 2024 Annual General Meeting of the British Paramotor Competitions Panel will take place between 20.30 and 22.00 BST on Monday 25th November, online on Microsoft Teams. We invite members of the competitive paramotor community to join us for it.
The committee will provide short reports on their activity during 2024, including the British Open Paramotor Championships, and the 1st FAI World Paramotor Endurance Championships. We will outline our plans for 2025, and open the floor to discussion and feedback, to help direct our activity next year.
There are two positions on the committee up for election:
Treasurer (currently Daniel Jones)
Training officer (currently Ric Womersley).
Eligible members of the community may propose themselves for one of these roles.
