Meeting Called to Order 8th November at 17:30 in G/N/002 by Club President Katy Watson
Committee not turning up with excuses
Jai has gone home for the weekend
Ryan and Kita have got work training
Alex Shanghavi is in LABS
Welcome! Thank you all for coming we all hope you well
WELCOME OWEN congrats for becoming the new merchandise officer!
Club
Change the time to 11.45 changeover at least until Y and D is over or change it officially.
Have 15 minutes to changeover and get the Y and D games on straight away.
Tatenda has no clue what’s going on
Proposed change within committee now and then have an EGM later.
Problem with not enough time for Y and D games but affects club members
Team members are still paying match fees for rushed games
Extra 15 minutes will make a big difference in terms of ease and times
Thought it was a good compromise
Little bit of extra training time for team members on days where there are no Y and D games
Actually gives time for us to actually play the Y and D games
Will email other Y and D teams to make sure they turn up on time.
Already scrapped one Y and D team because of lack of court
Those in favour: 10, those against: 2
Aaron has concerns that people still may not turn up on time
Also people have at the very least paid for the membership with the expectation of getting their full time.
A balance between team and club
Some membership troubles
Maddi is in touch and the relevant people have been told/contacted.
Issue with IT
Will be checking membership properly and organising the pegboards to make sure people don’t take advantage of the free sessions
Also 132 memberships so far which is really good.
Going to get more memberships by term 2 as well
Can check and make sure people who buy term 1 membership don’t carry on playing in term 2 without buying membership. Ask yusu for the details
People wanting to play with friends is fine but need to sort out some actual rules or guidelines for it.
Try to encourage people to mix up and play with different people as well.
Make sure to put people together but mix up the games as well
Team
Transport issues
Booking extra transport etc.
Ongoing issues
Issues with Tatenda
If there is another major issue will be taking it up in an official capacity – formal complaint
People see him in Revs on Sunday then there is lack of reply on Monday emails.
Issues with Tatenda responding to Tatenda and Holiday payment and Zizzis
Has been 2 weeks since the email.
Still issues with josh not being a signatory.
Cannot sign off payments etc.
Ask around for other teams about Tatenda issues
Issues with team training sessions
Sometimes have no training sessions sometimes have one when the expectation was 2 training sessions.
The amount of training has decreased. Some people aren’t that happy about it.
A balance of training sessions trying to get more training in RI or something. Try and garner more interest in RI.
Tell people wanting to do their own training sessions we can provide shuttles and training plans to play badminton and train badminton.
