Meeting Notes
Coaching
The committee discussed how coaching should be organised this year. It was agreed that at least 50% of training sessions should be taken by a coach other than Rebekah to reduce burden on her, with suggestions that Tuesday be left open for others to coach. There is due to be a meeting between coaches in the coming week to discuss this further, as well as to develop a coaching plan for the coming season.
Recruitment
Aman took the committee through the results of paying for posts to be promoted on Instagram. Specific ideas for recruiting girls for our regional league team were discussed.
Review of drafted club policies
Drafts or existing versions of the club’s Safeguarding policy, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy, Disciplinary Policy and Code of Conduct were reviewed. There was some discussion around specific wording of the Safeguarding policy, which Jo agreed to amend prior to the next meeting.
Membership rates in special circumstances
The possibility of offering discounted rates for club members with long-term injuries was discussed. The committee agreed on a discounted rate of £10 for those expected to be out with an injury for at least 3 months, to be reviewed every three months.
Social event
Plans for a social on the upcoming Saturday were discussed. It was agreed that a walk starting at Castle Coch would be organised.
