Matters
Arising
- TVCL
Disciplinary re Tony Hewston: Matthew Stevenson reported that there has
been no further progress on this matter.
- TVCL Complaint
re Chalfont Park square: Matthew Stevenson reported that we had not
heard anything further from the TVCL on this
matter.
- 3rd XI ground
at Richings Park: Matthew Stevenson reported that Keith Neave has been
discussing matters with Richings Park but has not yet finalized
arrangements.
- Fun
day/six-a-side tournament on Bank Holiday Monday: Andy Parsons reported
that this event had made a profit of c.GBP400; it was agreed that it had
been a great success and it will hopefully be repeated in the
future.
- AGM: it was
agreed to bring forward the date of the AGM to give the new committee
more time to prepare for the 2008 season; it will take place on Friday,
9th November.
- Annual Dinner:
there was a long debate on the location for this year’s event,
specifically a proposal from Tony Hewston that it should be held at the
Village Hall pub in Chalfont St. Peter; it was agreed that it would be
more appropriate to hold such events at the club.
Cricket
Report
- TVCL reports:
Mathew Stevenson reported that the 1st XI had fallen away badly at the
end of the season and eventually finished third out of ten in Division
2B, which was a little disappointing as we had led the way for most of
the season; meanwhile the 2nd XI finished a very creditable fourth out
of ten in Division 4A.
- Friendlies:
the Saturday 3rd XI completed the season unbeaten and is looking forward
to playing league cricket next season; the Sunday 1st XI had a
disappointing season in the TCSL but reached the semi-final of the
Skinner Cup. The Sunday 2nd and 3rd XIs both had successful
seasons.
- TVCL
administration: Matthew Stevenson reported that the 1st XI has continued
to incur fines for match-day administration, and the 2nd has incurred
one as well; this is very frustrating from a financial point of view and
could also cost us points in the future.
Ground
Report
- Richings Park:
in the absence of Keith Neave there was no
report.
- Chalfont Park
square: in the absence of David Banner there was no report; Dan Webb
said that we faced cash flow problems (see Treasurer’s Report below) re
the purchase of the end of season materials.
- Chalfont Park
outfield: Dan Webb reported that we have another mole causing problems
on the near side of the outfield.
- Machinery: in
the absence of David Banner there was no report.
- Practice
facility: in the absence of Mandeep Gill there was no report; however,
Dan Webb did confirm that both the netting and the matting have been
purchased – the matting has arrived but we are still waiting for the
netting.
- Work party:
Dan Webb said that he would organize a work party in the next 2-3 weeks
to help the groundsman with the end-of-season work and to complete the
work on the new practice facility.
Treasurer’s Report
- Financial
report: Murray Scott submitted a brief written report in his absence
but, given the uncertainty over which match fees have and have not been
banked, the meeting was uncertain about our exact financial
position.
Development Plan
- Sub-committee:
Ben Kunicki reported that the development sub-committee had had its
first meeting.
- Clubmark
status: Ben Kunicki reported that he saw no reason why we should not be
able to gain “clubmark status” by the end of next
season.
