CHAIRMAN’S ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2017/18

The Club continues to progress positively and develop in line with our ongoing vision for the future.
I must again reiterate to members the work done by our wonderful volunteers across all sections which allows us to develop our club in line with the demands of the 2019 world. Without this level of support, we would not be able to offer the sporting opportunities to the current and future generations at such a low cost.
IF YOU WANT TO JOIN THE VOLUNTEER TEAM, PLEASE COME FORWARD AND CONTACT ONE OF THE COMMITTEE.
Our current future plans include extending the clubhouse and developing options for using the attached playing fields on Grimshaws. These options include further development of our football section and much needed additional car parking. To push these schemes forward, we need to increase our finance base over the next few years and we are again putting a team together to tackle the future business plans. We have just secured a grant from Viridor that will bring our cricket practice facilities up to the required standard and we thank them for their wonderful support.
In terms of finance, Heather has put together her report but I would add again my annual sales pitch for our very successful monthly draw at £4 per month.
PLEASE CONSIDER JOINING THIS MONTHLY DRAW.
Finally, returning to the volunteers theme, I want to take this opportunity to thank Steve Dixon who is retiring as our volunteer bar manager after many years of real benefit to his club.
