Financial including membership.
21 paid up members. Proposal to put mileage allowance up to 15p per mile will be raised at another meeting. We are not charging opposition enough for tea. Expenditure on kit was not restricted but will not need so much spending next year. DF felt that £940.00 is solid enough and thanked MP and MH for collecting money from members that never quibbled. KG has now paid for his kit. MP gave vote of thanks.

Secretarial
SCB fee was debated during the season. MCCC membership was questioned; however the insurance angle on this enables us to use public services. Letter was received from Barton CC regarding use of kitchen; this will be monitored next season. MP thanked MH for his efforts.

Captain’s report
PB thanked everybody this year for their effort and commitment. Drawing year was good but lacked seamers. PB thanked the usual suspects Captain and vice captain very appreciative of their efforts.

Fixtures
7 or 8 in the book already: Bugbrooke, Blythe Bridge, Woore and Pott Shrigley. We will drop Bishop Tachbrook, Essington and Great Wyrley plus Barton CC. Will only play Cannock Wood away. St Mathews and Sutton Police want to play us, will go for Trentside again. The long distance fixtures should be more spread out this year. We will debate playing at Holland SSC next season at another meeting. Any feedback on fixtures welcome. The Stuart Ellison trophy to be played against Wall CC or Beaudesert CC to be discussed at next meeting.
RJ appreciated MP’s efforts.

Nets
No notification on indoor nets received. Outdoor nets were a success, very good practice took place.

Kit
RJ asked about no rota, MH looked after kit in winter and summer, RJ gave thanks for this. The problem with Rota last season was the lack of volunteers and rotation of players. To be discussed at March meeting. Winter rota: January MH, February MP and March DF. Summer rota to be arranged in March. Purchases for the new season: 1No helmet, 2No clickers and a scorebook. GC suggested dying umpires coats light blue, DP said no, to be left in abeyance.

There is no pre order, 6.00pm at the QH, 8.00pm at the George. RC wants to organise a trip to the races in the spring. DP’s 50^th on 19^th November at the Bridge at Branston.
