Real Wood
AGM
Wednesday 29th September ’12, Golden
Guinea, Bristol
Present: Rich T, Batts, Swifty, Bertie, Colin, Will,
Andy
Manager’s Report:
Thanks for those that made it to the AGM.
In the absence of funds and planning we did not have
presentations this year, however;
Thanks to Les for running the Tuesday 5s and captaining the
side in our successful 1st season. Les has also offered the services
of Rachel (beyond the call of duty) to look after our finances so I feel he should
take the ‘Club Man of the Year’
award. Thanks also to Bertie for providing a venue for the fund-raising
barbeque, for regularly providing players and along with Swifty for providing
support and guidance.
Many thanks to Mark for successfully taking over the
organising of the Thursday 5s which has been a great help. My nomination for
Mark as the season’s ‘Most Improved
Player’ was agreed at the AGM for his excellent midfield performances.
Any doubts over the ‘Golden
Boot’ award were settled by Colin’s 5 goals in the Curry Cup to add to his
league tally.
We were unable to reach a decision on ‘Player of the Year’ as this demanded a level of recall no longer
accessible to us. However special applause goes to Ola, Tim and Bill for
regularly polling the majority of the ‘Man
of the Match’ votes.
I was very pleased with the performances we put in and with
us managing to get a team together to complete most of our fixtures. I hope we
can aim to complete them all this year.
Several of us continue to spread ourselves around a bit so I
will endeavour to liaise with Jack from Voyager to avoid clashes when I can.
Agenda
Roles:
Currently:
Rich T - Club captain/manager,
organiser for 11-a-side matches.
Les - Team captain, organiser Goals
League 5-a-side (Tuesdays)
Mark - Organiser Club 5-a-side
(Thursdays)
Rachel - Treasurer
Subs/Expenses:
Last season
we did not pay membership so operated pay-as-you-play. Costs for balls,
whistle, kit, gloves, fines (for cancellations) etc were met by funds from the
5s sessions.
This season
we propose;
11-a-side
£10 annual subs payable at the start of the season. (Please bring your £10 annual
subs+ match subs to cup match on 9th Sept) Match subs
collected from all players to cover cost of pitch plus ref. Agreed at AGM.
5-a-side no annual
subs but any excess will be used to will subsidise club expenses. Weekly subs
will be collected to cover costs currently £5 per head. Agreed
at AGM.
Rachel to
record as treasurer
Kit:
All black
kit 1st choice, all blue for 'away' kit.
Sponsor
needed if we want new kit as we don’t want to pay.
Volunteers to wash kit on match-by-match basis. Agreed
at AGM.
Referees:
We are required to provide refs for home fixtures. We agreed
to pay £20 per match when we have a proper referee (didn't have much luck with
this last season so offers & suggestions welcome.) When we have not found
ref then there's an expectation that all will volunteer to take a turn. Agreed at AGM.
Substitutes:
General rule is that if you show up you will get run-out so
all should be willing to take their turn as sub. Substitutes should be willing
to run the line/ref as required. Agreed except Gary Wilding
Home pitch:
Fry's last season so I've kept with it. They have toughened
up a bit and I have had to sign there rules which include expelling & fining
clubs damaging or littering the site. There is also an expectation that we and
our opponents will use the Fry’s bar after matches so please can we do this
when possible and encourage our opponents to do so too.
Communication
Email is easiest and cheapest but text also being used as
well as the blog http://realwoodfc.blogspot.co.uk/ so please make sure I have
you email addresses and mobile phone numbers.
Any other business:
Proposal of club fines for not
turning up to matches was not adopted but should be noted as seriously frowned
upon.
We agreed that at this stage we would
not limit numbers as turning up on Saturdays as in the past we have had a lot
of no-shows. This may need to be reviewed but it does stress the need for
players to reply to emails and texts.
Request for new gloves and bibs for
Thursdays.
Some people would like to play
earlier on Thursdays. This is not currently an option on 3G but if the majority
want this we can look into it.
