Apologies for absence: Messrs: Berry & Bertrand
Minutes of the last meeting: These had been circulated and were agreed.
Matters Arising: Simon King now has the web site up and running but he now has a job so additions may slow up a bit. The Match Secretary said that it would be useful if we could upload spreadsheets etc direct sometime in the future.
Correspondence: Dr Peter Swain had visited the Hilton Centre to look at old records. It was agreed that these should be handed over for the archive suggested
General Secretary’s Report: Hopefully we will back to 12 teams in each division next year. It was his opinion that we should consolidate the existing teams in the higher divisions rather than accepting new teams in any of those positions.
The handicap system was working well apart from extreme separation. A general discussion took place on team make up and different systems.
Match Secretary’s Report: Outstanding matches: Premier 2; Div 1 - 2, Div 2 – 9; Div 3 – 2; Div 4 – 1. Division 2 was struggling because of league double ups with cups and the bad weather struck in that week also.
Treasurer’s Report: I have collected the money for the adverts. We may lose Rosebank. i am going to speak to the one in charge of publicity and see what I can do for next year's handbook. I have some money to collect from the lads club for new players. Interests on the bank account are much lower than last year and now it's just as bad as the interests we use to have from the Yorkshire bank.
Inter-league Secretary’s Report: It was reported in the absence of the Inter-league Secretary that it was running well.
Tournament Secretary’s Report: I have only one item for discussion and that is who can we ask to umpire the tournament finals? Does the committee have any suggestions? This was discussed and it was decided to ask for volunteers on the night.
AOB: None
Date and venue of next meeting: 9th April 2010 at 7.30pm Meadow Hill
