For club AGMs, giving members a notice a few weeks in advance helps ensure everyone can participate and be prepared. A window of 2–4 weeks is typical because it balances time for members to review the agenda, financial statements, and any proposed changes or officer elections, with the need to keep the meeting relevant to the current year. It also provides enough time to arrange proxies or attendance if someone can’t be there in person.

Notice issued only a day before the meeting is not sufficient for most members to get the materials, decide how to vote, or arrange travel or proxy support. No notice would undermine fair participation and transparency, and a span as long as six months can be impractical and may make the information stale.

So, 2–4 weeks in advance reflects common practice and supports meaningful member involvement, while aligning with standard governance expectations. Always check the club’s bylaws or governing rules, as they can set the exact requirement.
