GALLOWS CORNER SPORTS & SOCIAL CLUB (MAIN CLUB) AGM

Wednesday 10th April at 8.00 pm.

The 2013 Main Club AGM will be held at the Pavilion, Gallows Corner on Wednesday 10th April at 8pm.

The Main Club committee are responsible for the running and maintenance of the clubhouse and the grass pitches outside the club. The committee consists of the elected officers (see below) plus representatives from the constituent clubs (Gidea Park and Romford CC and Romford Hockey Club), and meetings are held at the clubhouse once a month, usually on the third Wednesday of each month.

The five electable positions on the committee are:

President - Vacancy created by Derek Brazier’s passing last year. Historically a figurehead role, but responsibilities can be agreed by the new committee.

Chairman - Responsible for chairing committee meetings and the AGM, dealing with the local Council (from whom we lease the clubhouse and pitches) and service suppliers, liaising with the bar manager and facilitating the day-to-day running of the club.

Vice Chairman - Acts as the Chairman's deputy and undertakes tasks as agreed at committee meetings.

Secretary - Takes the minutes at committee meetings and the AGM and enters into written correspondence as required.

Treasurer - Ensures all bills are checked and paid, updates and produces monthly and year end accounts.

The AGM Agenda and Nomination Form are now on the Notice Board, which is in the hall on the wall to the right of the bar.

Currently Andy Molloy (Hockey) is Chairman, Andy Jenner (Cricket) is Vice Chairman and David Brazier (Hockey) is the Secretary. We do not currently have a Treasurer, but employ the services of a bookkeeper.

It is vital that all of the roles are filled to enable the club to function properly. The time commitment is not huge and the posts are a great opportunity for our members to get involved in managing a small organisation.

If you are interested in a role, please put your name down on the Nomination Form and get someone to propose you and another person to second your nomination. If you want to know more about a role, please speak to Andy Jenner, or Dave Cobill or Luke Baker who are currently the Cricket Club Representatives on the Main Club Committee.
