What Can YOU do for your club

There is a desperate need for more volunteers to help run YOUR club. Many of the existing EC members and other club officers are already doing more than one job. Some of the EC members will stand for re-election at the AGM but every year some decide to step down and take a well earned rest. Can you help in the coming season. Whatever amount of time you can offer, large or small, we can help you find the right job. We need members to serve on the EC and have listed all the posts in this newsletter. There are also however lots of other ways to help. If you think you could help then talk it over with someone who is already involved. Alan Brooking (Chairman), Chris Locke (President) and Chris McFerran (Secretary) would all be happy to advise you on a whole range of ways to help. Or if you think you can help in a specific way talk first to the club officer who is at present responsible; for example Alan Webb (Rugby) Dave Sharp (Publicity) Andy Bradnum (Juniors)
