Treasurer.Brian Airey has informed the committee that unfortunatly, this will be his last season as treasurer & competitions secretary and will not be applying for re-election at the next AGM.
We would therefore need somebody to put their name forward to fill both roles. Preferebly one person to do both roles.
If somebody comes forward declaring an intrest in doing the role then Brian can show you what to do during the rest of the season, so you have a grasp of it for next season.
The COMPETITIONS SECRETARY role involves contacting teams about entries for doubles day, doing the draws for the Doubles Day and Presidents Day, being there to run the competitions on the day.
We thank Brian for his years as Treasurer and Competitions Secretary.
