Committee Report August 2012
Code of ethics
A resolution will be put forward at the next AGM in support of the code of ethics. We are looking to run a 3hour course in the club in the next few months and hope to get as many coaches and junior coaches involved as possible. A first aid and defibrillator course has been offered to members. We are awaiting a date on the same.
Kitchen
Rachel Sterling will commence work in the kitchen on Sept 8th at the first junior sessions. She will work out of the kitchen during the day and so access by members will now be restricted. She will use her own equipment. Storage behind the bar is to be looked at to maximize space.
Personnel
Siobhan Madeley has been appointed ladies vice captain for the season. Rob Hanna has commenced work as the new cleaner. A ladies 4th coach will be in place by the first week in September. A mens 3rd/4th/5th coach is still required. Jody is due to arrive from South Africa in the next few weeks. We are investigating the possibility that we may be able to get a visa for another South African but this is work in progress.
Kit
A lot of old tempest stock exists but in more or less unusable sizes. We are looking to give it to a club in need in Eastern Europe.
Tournaments
The pre-season event is due to run of the 1st of Sept. Ideas for next years May Fest are being gathered. Ali is to meet with people in relation to this. The ladies side are proposing to look for funding for a trip to Barcelona. This was given the go ahead.
Physio Tender
The club has been approached in relation to renovating one of the lesser used changing rooms into a physio practice. The need for the showers needs to be considered. This is an option that will be discussed further at Council and Committee
Bar Tokens
The option of introducing bar tokens with a subscription discount was discussed. Rob is to meet with other clubs to discuss what systems they use and whether this is suitable.
