The meeting will hopefully act as a pointer to the new season and what can be achieved given the effort, commitment and dedication of so many people on different aspects of the club. Each year there are many positions to be filled in both administration and coaching so come along and offer a helping hand in 2009, let us all work together towards future success and prosperity. Thanks are extended to all club members for their time, dedication and support over the past 12 months but with new plans for further development on the agenda there will be much more to be done in 2009 and beyond; that workload can be made easier handled if we could all offer a little of our spare time and share the responsibility, give it thought.
