Everyone should have had a few emails about this asking for members to take part in assessing aspects of the clubs future development.

Lorna Dobbie, the hockey manager at Sport Tayside and Fife, has been assisting the club progress the development process. In essence we are concentrating on five main areas each with a group of club members who have volunteered to help. The areas are:- Club Profile(communication within & outwith club, sponsorship & fundraising), coach/umpire development, youth development, social development and selection/player development.

We have to date had a meeting of the youth and club profile groups with some 16 members taking part.
   

I would urge all members to consider taking part in one or other group - being a group member doesn't mean you are going to be offloaded with things to do - we just want people to attend and give of their thoughts re. the clubs development. Contact Gordon Johnston to discuss any topic or to volunteer for a group. 

One major issue that has come up is that for a club of our size we have very little in the way of articles in the newspapers etc and hence have limited public awareness of both the club & the sport of hockey. This is a major priority to improve on. Kevin Walker has volunteered to become our main contact with the media notably the newspapers so any ideas or thoughts for articles please contact him.
