Minutes of the Committee Meeting held on Wednesday 28 June 2017 starting at 19.30 held at Paul and Val Mollison’s house Tekoa Lodge, Mayes Lane, Sandon, Essex, CM2 7RW – Present:, Linda Fleet, Bernie Hunt, Pat Johnson, Paul Mollison, Val Mollison, Sue Thorburn and Theo Todman Welcome and apologies for absence Paul Mollison welcomed trial present. He accepted apologies from Petra Bromfield, Margaret Curtis, Chris Taylor and Dennis Valtisiaris. Minutes of the last meeting held on Tuesday 18 April 2017 These had been circulated prior to the meeting. It was agreed that the minutes were a correct record of the meeting. A copy was signed by the chairman. Matters arising from the minutes not already included in the agenda Proposal for Eve Goblets rule change Theo’s main concern was the lack of clarity in the rules. After a full discussion it was agreed he would use his judgement to determine a clearer set. He would also model a potential set of rules for a B flight competition based on 2016/17 results with the aim of giving B flight players a chance of successfully competing in a Victor Ludorum competition, given they have little chance of success in the main competition. Theo felt that by publishing the Eve Goblets standings regularly and prominently, players may be encouraged to enter more qualifying competitions to enhance their standings. Metropolitan Cup A team would be entered in each section. Theo would put details on the website. Entries are not yet complete. When Bernie has finalised the League numbers league structure, details will be posted on the website. Warboys update All seems to be going well with contention for places. It was agreed that table money should be £5 for both sections. Val felt it was not practical to have a single playing director as it affected their play. Either a dedicated TD will be used or two playing directors. Reports from Officers General Secretary (Sue Thorburn) Nothing to report in addition to covered in agenda.
