Introduction/Committee Changes
JB welcomed Simon Evans, Martin Allen, John Clay, and Will Hibbert to the meeting and thanked them for their agreement to join the Committee following the AGM in September at which JB, CW, and DW will resign from the Committee.
JB announced the resignations of Paul Howkins (due to work and family commitments) and James Bunt (due to work commitments) from the Committee and thanked them for their contribution to the Club during their time on the Committee.
It was agreed that the period running up to the AGM in September must be used to ensure a smooth handover of the roles held by those Committee Members resigning to the new Committee Members. The roles which require handover/allocation were identified as:-
- Club Secretary
- Coaching and Development
- Sponsorship Manager
- Marketing and Promotions Manager
- Facilities Manager
- Chairman
- Internal league Administration
- Bar Manager Liaison
- Web Site Maintenance
- Social Secretary
To assist the new Committee in the allocation of the above responsibilities, JB agreed to circulate bullet point job descriptions for all the above roles by end of May.
The ‘new’ Committee agreed to review these and determine allocation of responsibilities by the next Committee Meeting in July. This will allow the handover process to be completed by the AGM.
With regard to Coaching and Development role, CW indicated that she was prepared to continue Junior coaching on a part time basis (2 or 3 Friday evenings per month during winter) in conjunction with Junior Parents if that is the wish of the new Committee – this would be on the same financial basis as currently albeit CW would probably no longer be a member of the Club.
With regard to Facilities Management , DW indicated that he would be prepared to continue to organise annual maintenance requirements on behalf of the Club as a non-Committee role if that was the wish of the new Committee – see Job Description Document for details.
