Of course there is also a huge potential to forge good workingrelationships with local businesses, schools, collages, clubs and organisationswhich in turn will encourage new members and open new local sponsorshipopportunities for us to offer our local community.Our committee have agreed the new 5 year plan, that includes challengingtargets in all areas of our club, Financial Stability to Increased Players / Team,Facility Improvements to Regular Social Events, and much, much more.To achieve these Targets and Goals, we are going to need to improveour communication, this will be achieved through One Club InformationMeetings.
