Matters Arising
Teas: it had been decided after consultation with players to continue with having teas provided by individuals, as before. On Sundays, we had put on a barbecue after the games instead of a tea, and this had gone well.
Chairman’s Report:
The playing report – following a very successful season - is on the web-site.
RP thanked the committee for their work this season. He also thanked the club’s sponsors, esp. Blackstone and Strident. Thanks to Matt Parker for web-site, sports-stats. and dinner dance, Sam Collins for work on youth cricket, and Kathryn Spicer for her work on child welfare and renewal of the Clubmark accreditation.
The square has been corrowed and we are looking into grants to make further improvement to the ground and clubhouse.
Secretary’s Report:
TC Div. 4 fixtures are now available
NECL: Div. 2 - 8 teams so 14 games
Licence from PC – will start discussions re this in Jan.
Treasurer’s Report:
BN distributed the accounts, which he then explained. The bar did better, as did subscriptions/match fees, and we made a small profit over the year. We received a number of donations, as a results of Travellers, and have done well from grants (e.g. £800 from PC for fencing). Ground expenditure up to £9.5k. Savings on insurance and electricity. We have c.£6k in the bank.
These were approved, subject to final audit, unanimously by the meeting
(proposed: N. Brinded, seconded: P. O’Donnell.).
Subscriptions/match fees for 2018 will be decided by the committee.
