AGM

To be held 15th JUNE 2010
 

  
 

The Annual General Meeting of the N.F.R.B.A. will be held on Tuesday 15th June 2010 at Pfizers Sports and Social Centre, Sandwich. Formal notice will be issued nearer the date and any proposals for changes to our Rules and discussion items for the agenda have to be circulated at that time - so any such matters should be sent to me by 20th May.
It was agreed at the last AGM that the agenda for this year would include a proposal to introduce Rally Point Scoring for senior league matches – probably with limited or no discussion on the matter – just a vote. Please make sure that your club representative is aware of the feelings of your club members so they may vote accordingly. There is a further contribution to the debate on our website from Edward Strilesky of Kings who strongly supports a move to RPS. At the start of the season I asked clubs to let me know how their members felt about the issue so we could assess the strength of feeling amongst the players themselves. I haven’t had much of a response. Even if you do not produce detailed statistics perhaps you could say whether there is strong feeling for or against or many who don’t know or care.

As usual the league trophies will be presented at the AGM. Please make certain that any trophies held by your club are returned in time for this to be done and that representatives of winning teams attend. It would be very helpful to have trophies back early enough to be engraved with this year’s winners before the AGM. Reminder - last year’s league winners were:

Premier                       Phoenix
Mixed 1                        Kings Road
Mixed 2                        Apollo (Canterbury)
Mixed 3                        Invicta/Pilgrims
Mixed 4                        Church Street		 Mens 1                        Rovers
Mens 2                        Invicta/Pilgrims
Mens 3                        Westgate

Composite 1               Invicta/Pilgrims

Both Senior and Junior Inter-Regional Events are being held locally at the University again this year:
            Seniors                 Saturday 10th April
            Juniors                  Sunday 11th April

These events feature teams from the eight or so regions in Kent and include both singles and doubles matches. There should be some very good quality badminton on view on both days – starting around 10.00am. Please make sure that your club members know of these events and if possible turn up to support the North Foreland teams. Let us know if you have players in your club who you think should be considered for our teams.

Please make a note in your diary to ensure that your club is represented at the meeting and bring along your ideas.

Dave Gardner
Hon Secretary

PS – we are looking for someone to take over from John Mulford and his team who have been running Falcons Juniors in Faversham for some years.
