1 2 A Club To Be Proud of A Youth System That Works Our aim is to build a positive, welcoming environment with the best facilities we can offer 3 4 Sedon vel eros sem hasellus nec facilisis leordan, aterosullamcorper feliscos redis. Morbi tristique nunc id ante pellentesque Future-Proof Technology First Keeping an eye on our ever changing game and enviroment We aim to integrate player tracking and monitor systems to allow us to get the best out of our training Someone told me running this football club would be easy, “It’s all done for you” I was told. Now in my 3rd year as Chairman I can now say that isn’t the case. You need a team. A team to get the job done, have a laugh with and maybe fall out over small things, but a team that comes back together to finish the project. Our club are lucky to have a team running our club 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We have now relocated and I can't thank the volunteers, members and supporters enough for their backing over the last 3 months. Although we had the vote to leave at the beginning of the year we only started work on the new ground when the season ended such is the intensity of running a club such as ours. On the day of the vote we made one last attempt to purchase the joiners yard next to Abbey Park but the price was out of our means and then there would still be more needed to turn it into usable changing rooms. Even on the last match against The Talbot a journalist asked “Are you looking forward to leaving” I had to tell him this wasn't the time nor the place, it was more a time to grieve rather than celebrate. But now it's time to come together and look forward. It’s been great to see the fans joining us at the new ground and the players, coaches and volunteers deserve the best support Kilwinning can give them. We welcome back all the fans to our new home, even the ones who said they wouldn’t be back. There are no grudges held, The Buffs Park is a positive new start for Kilwinning Rangers and as we’ve built it by doing things “One at a time” we also hope to see the fans return “One at a time”. Everyone is welcome and we ask you to bring an old or a new friend along to see for themselves. HOPE TO SEE THE FANS RETURN "ONE AT A TIME" // Set Goals and Move Towards Them When we made the plans for the move we expected a drop off from some fans and there to be a time when we’d need to attract a new audience. To cover the financial aspects of the drop off we set the commercial manager a target of bringing in £10,000 of new sponsorship. As of today, I’m delighted to say Colin Evans has completely smashed that goal which will give the club some extra resource to go into improving the ground. If the club wants to be one of the top teams in the area and continually improve, we must bring revenue in year round. We ask the fans to back our club events and offer your help in any way you can. Come along to our home matches, spend a few pounds where you can and buy half time draw tickets. Just for the sake of the rumour mill every penny that's generated by Kilwinning Rangers at The Buffs Park goes into Kilwinning Rangers. // What's Next? As the season starts we'll now be moving on from the pitch, path and services improvements. We have already lodged planning permission for the new club house and within the next few weeks will be working with a structural engineer to get plans into NAC for the stand to come from Abbey Park, while we've been promised fast turn arounds from the council, estimated dates won't be known for a while but we will work as fast as we can to get the stand up. With regards to Abbey Park at the moment, we haven't been approached by the council regarding the park or it’s potential use. We will update the fans if this changes. 04 [ Ruffs N Tuffs ] Auchinleck Talbot
