2) Matters arising.

No matters arising.

  1. Sports ground report.

    2. Problems reported with litter, stones and stud marks on the Bowls area. The Junior Football Club is under increasing pressure regarding ‘lack of control’ of participants on Friday night social/training activities. It was stated that whilst the training is taking place the Managers/Coaches would take responsibility, however after training ceases it becomes the parents/guardians responsibility to maintain control. The kicking of footballs against the Pavilion walls has been quoted has a major problem.

    The problem of leaving the facility in a clean and tidy condition after Friday night’s activities has been raised again. We feel that the picking up of litter on the field should be our responsibility but we fail to see how apart from a general tidy the hoovering; especially of wet grass on a social evening becomes our responsibility. It is important to note that not everyone enjoying a drink in pleasant surroundings is involved with the Junior Football Club.

    Barbara Bowmar attended the meeting to express her concern over content of the previous minutes regarding intended use of funds raised on the Spring Fair. We were able to elaborate and explain our point which was accepted; it is important to note that the Football Club minutes are there for everyone to see and its content are real concerns of the persons attending and are recorded accordingly.

    CCTV has been installed covering the car park but is important to note that if anyone suspects a misdemeanour is recorded they are to contact Barbara Bowmar forthwith.

    Instances of training on non-designated areas must cease; the possibility of providing a ground plan displaying the areas is to be investigated but in the mean time all Managers would be advised to clarify.

    All training is to be coordinated with Dave List and booked through Dave Wright. Currently 8 Teams are benefiting from training facilities.

  2. Pitch Controller report.

    3. Nothing to report.

  3. Treasurer’s report.

    4. A full brief was presented-refer to AGM Minutes for content.

  4. Charter Standard.

    5. Jez has finally been traced, he is currently attached with the U11s, Barbara will be contacting soon.

    Plans for the first meeting of the Sub Committee are well in hand and a date set with a number of volunteers in place, all will be notified accordingly and we wait for our first set of objectives to be targeted. First meeting Tuesday 15th July.

     

     

     

  5. Spring Fair.

    6. A great success, our involvement was well appreciated and congratulations to all concerned.

    Our involvement in the Tea Bar activities needs to be reviewed to provide additional coverage.

    Ideas are invited for a fund raising activity for next year-it would be great to benefit from the amount of people attending and boost Club funds.

    It was noted that next years expectations for the event will be heightened and we must prepare ourselves for what ever this may present!

  6. Season 2003/2004.

    7. All affiliations are in place except for the Girls at this stage. Pat Eley reported that fixtures for the Sen 1st XI would not be available until the 7th August and only then on a monthly basis.

    Finance for the season to cover for a set of Mini Goals for matches and a set for Training were discussed. It was agreed that the Club would look at prices for a set for League matches and a set for Training obtained jointly financed between the Club and U8s parents/sponsors.

    Match and Training fees established at the same for the new season on advice of the Treasurer, but it was stressed that the Club relies on finance generated from the Tea Bar as its main source of income.

  7. Fixture Cards.

    8. All information to Dave Wright please regarding players, contacts, phone numbers, ‘E’ Mail addresses and sponsors ASAP in order to meet a tight deadline please.

  8. A.O.B.

Glynn Lewis announced to all gathered that the current U16s will not be participating next season and thanked the Committee for all its support. It is with regret we say goodbye to Glynn who has been a steadfast member of the Club for many years having seen both his lads through their respective teams. We hope that his presence at the Club could be perpetuated in some form or other in the future.

Next years under 7s (and below) will be administered by Jeff Torr, we welcome him and look forward to his attendance at meetings.

Date of next meeting – Wed 16th July 8pm.
