Thanks to everyone who made it to the AGM last night and to those who sent apologies. If you weren’t able to make it please get in touch with Sam or Jo as soon as possible.
Some of the items discussed were:
- 2010 Manchester Evening Netball League presentation takes place tonight (23rd April). Tickets are £4 each and proceeds are going to charity. HNC has made a donation of £50.
- If any non members would like to attend training the first week is free, then it will be £3 per week. If they would like to join the fee is £12 per month.
- Membership fees may be increasing next year. Please speak to a member of the committee if you want to know more about that.
- We are making our annual trip to the Pontins netball tournament on 10th September. Mandy needs your deposit ASAP if you haven’t already paid.
- Possibility of taking part in International netball tournament in 2011. Gill is looking into this and will update.
- It was mentioned that there are an increasing number of instances where players are not respecting the umpires decision in matches. This is across all clubs, not just Hyde. HNC would like to stress to members that disrespecting the umpire is not acceptable. Please set a good example in all future matches.
- Please can all members please also take some time to refresh their knowledge of the rules of Netball. (Will try to get a link or info on the website)
- We need new team photo’s for the website (from 2009/10 season). Listen for updates at the club so you know when to come wearing your kit (and get your hair and make up done!). For pictures from the 2008/9 season see the gallery.
- Lots of babies! Congratulations given to all new parents and parents to be.
- Our best wishes and congrats to Donna for getting through a tough year.
- Pat (our oldest member) has been awarded Life Time membership.
There was a lot more discussed at this 2 hour meeting. Please speak to any committee member if you would like to know more.
