Meeting Notes.

It is asked that all clubs hosting the trail days make both the changing rooms and training equipment available to the team manager or Head Coach by 10am on the morning of each session.

The province is still looking for a club to host the South V East match; any interested club should contact Dai Higgs.

Training sessions are to be based on a two on two off basis. To avoid players picking their attendance it will still remain a provincial rule that each player must attend both venues.

The playing kits for next season are to be supplied by the MWP strips of 2008/09. These are available at U12 and U14 and will be used until new funds are obtained. Note we are still short of an Under 13’s kit and this side will benefit with the fist GSC kit.

It has been asked for clubs to propose the provincial badge; any ideas should in the first instance go to Dai Higgs. The Sword of the Nation was one suggestion put forward.

The province is in great need of sponsorship manager/managers, someone who has a comprehensive list of good contacts within our area. At present Gogledd South will receive no central funding from North Wales or the WRU and as such we need to raise funds at every level. This role could be carried out by an individual or be split down to team by team basis.

Note: It is unsure if any reimbursement will be available to clubs hosting the provincial trails and or matches. Dai Higgs to investigate.
