The Annual General Meeting passed off without major incident on 2nd December.
The turn out was average but nevertheless encouraging.
Reports were received and passed. The accounts showed a slight out turn which was largely due to the club absorbing the VAT rise and not increasing bar prices and the late receipt of the sponsorship money.
Fixtures are already in place for 2012, as well as hosting events such as the schools cricket festival.
The main points of business passed are as follows: -
Subscriptions will increase in 2012. However, those paying before 30th June will benefit from a special offer of membership at 2011 prices.
Match fees will also rise to £4 per match for all day cricket. Costs have continued to rise and fees have remained at £3 for approximately 10 years.
Despite both rises, the meeting agreed that Whitchurch still provides excellent value for money.
After 4 seasons in the top job, Neil has “retired” to attend the Olympics and passed the baton on to Gavin. In turn, Gavin has recruited Rob Rawlings to be his side kick.
All of the other committee positions remain the same for 2012. This includes Richard Hall as First XI skipper. Announcements about the Second XI skipper will be made in the new year, once the new committee has assessed the options.
There being no other business or questions, all adjourned to the pub.
Net sessions are already booked in for pre-season and work will continue throughout the winter in preparation for the new season.
