The meeting will start at 7:45PM sharp and will last for 45 minutes. It will be held in the small hall at Little Island Sports Complex.
Hopefully we'll have plenty of good input and discussion in this time. This is just the start of planning, so it may not be the only meeting.
If you have ideas you want to contribute or would like discussed, please send them on to me. I'll collect all of the ideas and circulate them.
Once again, a bunch of ideas are of no use without people to put them into action. This meeting is about generating and discussing ideas, but at some point there will come a time when we need to put them into action.
I'll list my ideas below to kick things off.
Juniors
- Assistance needed, peak of 4 active volunteers at start of the year (3 coaches, 1 manager) to 2 coaches, 1 manager.
- Need 2x sets of jerseys with numbers that fit everyone
- Need to increase player numbers to stay viable
- Need to increase volunteer numbers to stay viable, especially if player numbers increase
Promotions
- Advertise local news papers & notice boards (20 mile radius)
- Advertise at schools at start of the year
We regularly receive notes from school when kids return in September advertising various activities that are starting up. This is something that would need to be done on the first week back to school if you were to go with that idea as that is when decisions are made for activities for kids for the year. If I can help with anything please let me know."
- Should we draw up promotional materials (1 page leaflet?)
- St. Patricks Day parade is a good opportunity
- Road hockey games or other public events?
Fundraising/Sponsorship
- Tag days, grocery bagging
- Raffle/draw
Seniors - House League
- 2x per year?
Seniors - Club team
- What do we want to accomplish in the next year or two?

Seniors - General
- Need minimum 2x sets of jerseys with numbers, for either house league or senior team
Club
- first aid kit is missing
- lack of contributions from members to the club in terms of time contributed, not enough people contributing
- need a strategy or plans for rewarding volunteers who do contribute
- 2 small nets need to netting/stringing completed
Committee & Organization
- no committee meetings in too long
- what purpose/functions does the committee need to provide? (Governance)
