Thank you to everyone who joined us for our AGM last week 🙌 It was fantastic to see such a strong turnout and so much support for the club – it really does make a difference!There have been a few changes to the committee:After two years as Vice Chair, Graham Brooks has stepped down from the role. Liz Ball has also stepped down after nine years as our Social Media & Communications Co-ordinator. Jim Kyle is stepping back as Disability Co-ordinator after pioneering the role and building our hugely successful para and adaptive section.We want to say a HUGE thank you to these club stalwarts for their dedication, time and passion . The club simply wouldn’t be where it is without them. 💚💛The good news is Graham is still very much involved as a Level 4 Official, Field Referee at competitions/matches, and in many other volunteer roles. Liz will continue to support behind the scenes as needed.We’re also incredibly grateful that all other committee members have agreed to remain in their roles for another season. Please remember – every single one of them is a volunteer, and without them the club would not run 👏We’re excited to share that Rach Ramsey – our very own Wonder Woman 🦸‍♀️ – has stepped up as our new Vice Chair, alongside continuing as Membership Co-ordinator.A warm welcome to our new committee members:👉Leanna Richardson, our new Disability Coordinator👉Jon Reeves, who has taken on the long-vacant Health & Safety role – woohoo! 🎉A huge round of applause to this amazing team who keep the club running so smoothly 👏👏Committee meetings are usually held online on the second Monday of each month, and members are always welcome to attend.
