SECRETARY’S REPORT
Further to my previous report, Vic and
I have now met with Stephanie Gadd to commit to becoming a Charter Standard
League. The draft criteria for us to
achieve this were explained to us and Stephanie hopes these will be ratified,
by the F.A. by May. Clubs are urged to make their own
applications as soon as possible and I know a number of you are working towards
Charter or Development Club status already.
Stephanie has provided a summary of the process which I have copied at
the end of these minutes.
Vic and I also met with Medway
Council to discuss the M.N.Y.L. making a block booking for pitches for 2008/09
as previously notified. The contract is
awaited.
Don’t forget to order any additional
trophies for League winners/runners up in accordance with
Rule 18d). 16 trophies for mini soccer
teams and 14 for 11 a side teams are supplied as standard.

their concerns shown towards my son Dominic at our recent game when he broke
his elbow. Thank you on his behalf for the Easter Egg
and card which you dropped round to him it was really kind I’m sure he’ll soon
be on the mend and back ready for the start of next season.

RESULTS SECRETARY/WEBMASTER’S REPORT
Just a couple
of niggles this month
If a game is
awarded the 3 points are added to the league tables but the software we use
adds a win to the games won column but does not add any goals to the goals
scored.
Can all clubs
make sure that player Adverts are endorsed by your Club secretaries? I have
returned emails in the past asking for them to be endorsed but from now on
unless endorsed by the Club Secretary they will be ignored.
With the cup
finals starting this week I would like to wish all the teams taking part the
best of luck and hope you all have an enjoyable day out.
