The minutes from the previous meeting were discussed and agreed as accurate.

ACTION SCHEDULE
Action schedule from previous meetings were discussed. Various actions were discharged and outstanding points will be carried forward and are available to view on the website. Please refer to the website for the most up to date version.

CORRESPONDENCE
First aid certificates have been forwarded and these were distributed to relevant mangers to distribute to the volunteers who attended.
DePhoto sent an email regarding the presentation nights: -
Thank you once again for inviting us to attend your event on Friday & Saturday. It was a pleasure to work at such a well organised event. Please pass on my thanks to all the other officials who made us feel very welcome. The photos taken are now on the website :- www.DEphoto.co.uk
The SDJSL have sent numerous emails, one containing standard code of rules, which will be discussed at a meeting being held in Sheffield on Wednesday 15th July for which a volunteer is required to attend. No one was available to attend, therefore Laura will submit our apologies. In addition, we are required to pay to enter the cup/trophy competition which is compulsory - £10 per team.
The league structure was also received, however they are now re structuring the Under 10s age group due to complaints.
Allen in his absence wanted Laura to go through the email he had previously sent to everyone
1. Hope you are finding the coaching material useful – No feedback was given to Laura on this.
2. Good luck to to those currently doing the level 2 course - Ian,Phil,Eden,Kev
3. If your age group want to have a stall at the gala please let me know so I can allocate
a pitch for you, I want to know what size pitch and what you aim to use it for.
We have agreed previously that apart from tombolas the stalls should not
offer the same- Hair Spraying is already covered, as are hot food, drinks sweets crisps etc
This is a chance for each age group to raise a few extra funds for their team although as you all know
the club policy is to fund raise as a club to ensure all players receive the same package.
The only deviation from this is where individual teams are given personal sponsorship from
companies.

Due to John and Ian not running the penalty shootout this year they have offered to let another team take this task on. The Under 6’s have decided that will run with it this year. They were advised to contact Allen upon his return to arrange to collect the penalty shootout and Ian Shirt has agreed to liaise with his contact to supply the footballs for prizes.
4. Attached is the schedule for Dorothy Hymans for 2009/2010 I need it confirming at the
August meeting at the latest. I have discussed the possibility of us using the Academy astra turf
or the indoor arena and the new managers are unsure whether they will be letting any out this year
and asked me to contact them at the end of July. At the moment depending upon their decision Friday
may be available. Those who have used Athersley and Royston need to roll their contract over asap
otherwise we will lose the slot. I would suggest that training nights/venues are discussed at
the next meeting. A few amendments were made and will be give to Allen once he returns.
5. Remember Laura needs your completed signing on sheets and the consent forms asap and also ensure all
players are aware of the code of conduct.
6. Please ensure those connected with your team who need a CRB have completed the necessary otherwise
they won't be allowed to be involved with the team - If you need to clarify who needs one
please see Robin or Laura
7. New Match balls will be given out at the August meeting ready for the new season
Cheers
Allen

NEXT SEASONS TEAMS
Following on from the email received from the league regarding league structures we need to confirm any amendments to teams we are entering before Wednesday. Robin has been liaising with Eden and Pat and is confident that we can run with an Under 9’s age group this year. However, we need to try and secure more players for this age group.
Due to Steve Shillaw no longer continuing with the Club and a shortage of players it was agreed that we would be withdrawing the IUnder 15s from the league. Laura will notify them before Wednesday to avoid being fined.

KITS
Allen had left details of the new kit, and also wished for managers to clarify whether we continued with the current managers wear or change to an alternative. The majority present wished for this to be discussed when Allen was present at the next meeting.

SHEFFIELD MEETING
The AGM meeting was attended by the Robin is unfortuatnley not present at the meeting. \an update will be provided at the next meeting.

Fixture meeting to be attended by the Under 13’s – August 12th. Due to two of the Under 13’s volunteers leaving and Mark being away on holiday we need to find another volunteer. No one present could confirm if they could attend. Laura will make further enquiries to find a volunteer to attend.

The Under 18s have now been succesfully accepted into the DB League and have secured a place in Division 1. In addition the Under 18s were invited by Skyone to attend trials in Manchester for the Footballs Next Star TV show. Ten players attended and one was interviewed on camera. Once the trialing had finished 20 players out of 200 were selected to play a match at the end and 2 of these would go through to the next round. Two of our players were selected for the match but unfortunately they were not selected for the next round.
