AGM News IPSWICH AND DISTRICT BADMINTON LEAGUE CHAIRMAN’S REMARKS TO AGM SEPTEMBER 2024 First
of all, thank you for coming along this evening, and for everything you do for
your clubs all year. And I’ll reiterate
Glenn’s welcome to the representatives of a potential new club for next year – looking
for possible friendly matches this season.
Thank you also Steve Cook, here tonight as President of Suffolk
Badminton. Glenn has set out the facts and figures – thank you Glenn
once again for giving so much of your time to the IDBL. But – in his Secretary’s report tonight, Glenn
has also given notice that he will be stepping down as from the beginning of
the 2026/27 season, so I probably shouldn’t be saying how much time it takes! if
we are hoping to find a successor. However, the new website currently in
progress, thanks to Alan – a very willing volunteer (item later on tonight’s
agenda) should ease the workload considerably once it is fully up and
running. Also, it is not compulsory for
the League to be represented by the Secretary on the Suffolk Badminton
Association, so that role could be undertaken by another member of the Committee. As reported previously, Glenn is currently
working on the SBA’s Strategic Development Plan, so thank you to him, and to
the three representatives from clubs – Tom Mann, Andrew Rowe and Chris Moore – for getting
involved. Adam
has covered the financial position, despite the excitement – if that’s the
correct word – of the General Election.
Thank you Adam. And
more thanks – Amanda for the Playford Trophy, Lou and Glenn for the Junior
Tournaments, Harriet, Tony, Oliver and all members of the Committee for your
contributions and support in various ways. Shires
W M Trophies of Trimley are now carrying out all our engraving etc. I think the changeover has gone well, despite
a lot of extra work going to them at the end of the season, as far as I know,
they are taking on all previous customers from Linda Wiggins. I wish
everyone a trouble-free and enjoyable season – please continue to support your
local League. Linda And as
a sort of ‘PS’ please contact me if you are in need of a new net(s) – Stephen
Smith of YM Exiles has some which could be of use to you. |
