A number of years ago, the strategic development committee of TRRHC promoted the importance of long-term planning to sustain our growth and success as a club. They set in motion the steps needed to change our structure of governance, splitting the club into the committee which deals with the hockey issues, and the council which deals with the issues related to the grounds and facilities. The next step in this process was to produce a plan by which anyone sitting on either or committee or council can base their decisions on for the next few years, all with an aim of growing TRRHC. Open forums were held, and officials from other hockey clubs and sports were contacted to help us refine our thoughts of where we were compared to where we wanted to be.
The results of this fact gathering mission were collated into a five year strategic plan that focuses on developing people as well as hockey players.
Our aim is to provide a welcoming environment that fosters lifelong engagement with our club.
We want to grow our membership by 500 and to produce the best hockey environment for the best hockey experience for all our members, no matter their age or level. We are promising to support our players with top quality coaching, but importantly, we promise to facilitate self-motivated members to develop skills, experiences and networking opportunities in a safe and friendly environment.
Our plan focuses on six key areas, each of which has its own objectives. The key to their success is you, our members, engaging in the areas that most appeal to you. You may wish to give back to the club by providing us with specific expertise or networking opportunities, you may be looking to develop administrative and management skills for your C.V. through our committee, or you may try your hand at another side of hockey such as coaching and umpiring.
Either way, together we grow!
The European Trophy we hosted in May 2015 proved the with concerted effort and an end goal, we can achieve great things. Please take a moment to read this plan and consider where you or your children can help us continue to do great things.
