Andrew Thomson is the winner of the first 1-Ball competition of 2021-22

As we prepare for the forthcoming AGM, it is now clear that we will have at least one vacancy on the Committee this year, and it is likely that there will be another couple of opportunities to join the Committee next year.  In the short term, we need to identify members to manage the Recruitment & Publicity activities.  Whether this is by new volunteers picking up these roles or via a broader “Cabinet Reshuffle” can be negotiated depending on peoples’ wishes.

If anyone is considering volunteering to help run the Club, please feel free to talk to me, or any of the other existing Committee members, to get a better understanding of how we work together.

As a reminder, the cut-off date for AGM motions / nominations is 1st October.
