Sunday Team Captain’s Report MG reported on a mixed season, during which they struggled for players. He thanked RH for stepping up to Captain’s role during his injury.
Treasurer’s Report RH explained that we are currently showing £46.66 profit, but A Chapman (ground) payment outstanding, approx £325 (this figure corrected from £150 following updated information after the AGM). Successful fundraising this year raised just under £500, although Fantasy League cancelled owing to lack of support. It was noted that there were less paid up members this year. £1000 spent on new training equipment and replacement Club kit. The full report can be viewed on the website.
DW highlighted that the Club finances are in a healthy position. Emphasis at the Club is on enjoyment of the game of cricket and not profit-making.
NK suggested grants may be available from the Sandwich Neighbourhood Forum and that suitable project should be proposed. New mower and replacements doors were suggested. (Action: Committee)
