IMPORTANT PLEASE READ

The 2020 AGM is proposed to be held using the COVID safe technology of the internet. There have been 3 practise sessions held to date to try give everyone a chance to log on and sample the meeting technology available. Two sessions have been held using Microsoft Teams and one session using Zoom. To date we have had a good show out with between 7 or 8 on each meeting session. some guys have worked at the logging on and been successful, some guys still struggling and more practise required. People are using laptops, PC's,  I Pads, and phones to take part. Smoke signals and pigeons have failed to connnect.

These meeting methods are actually very good and have enabled many of us to continue our jobs working from home during the  COVID situation. you can share documents, pictures etc and it is just a case of adapting to a new method of meeting and discussing with people instead of face to face. Lot better than long plane journeys as well.

We are holding a last practise meeting session this coming Friday 23rd at 19:30 and it will be held on Zoom again. Those on the session will choose which medium they want the AGM to be held on as they have will had a chance to see both Teams and Zoom and which they prefer.

The Zoom meeting invite for Friday will be posted on the forum. all you have to do is simply cut and paste the link into your Google chrome or internet explorer page and it will take you to the invite.

You can practise logging on before Friday even if you wish it will just say meeting  not started or you are in the lobby / waiting room to be invited in. main thing is you give it a try in advance of Friday if not sure.

The main AGM will date and time will be decided after our last match and although we cannot please or suit everyone we will try hold a popular day / time in the midweek. Yes we know Emmerdale and Coronation street are on the tv but the clubs AGM is important and a chance for the membership to take part in the club decision making.

Any sensitive or contentious subjects at the AGM will be brought back to the forum for a vote if required as we are aware not everyone will be able to attend. all we ask and request is you try and log on and make it.

The agenda is well populated and has had a lot of good input, thank you. Similarly the request for members in 2021 is also filling up nicely and reassuring to see the numbers to date supporting the club.

Any views or comments please mention below and we will try and help if possible

Last practise session held on Friday 23rd with 6 in attendance.

So far we have held 4 sessions and had between 6 and 8 visitors in each session, a lot of the guys are the same people however but at least this gives us a good representation for the AGM to be held in safety and within the current COVID guidelines. After discussions the media chose for the AGM was ZOOM and it will be held either November 3rd or 4th at 19:00. This to be confirmed closer to the date.

Previous invites will be deleted so as to avoid any confusion for any who wish to join us.

AGM topics to discuss so far are:-

1 - Committee members  - roles / responsibilities /
2 - Complaints
3 - Rules / changes / new / old
4 - Match fee and payment options ( inc super pools option)
5 - Live draw / draw on day
