Tamar Trotters’

Club Development Meetings

 

·        We will be holding a series of Club Development Meetings over the next 12 months covering three separate topic areas:  “Juniors”, “Club Future & New Clubhouse” and “Coaching, Running & Group Leaders”

·        These meetings will be held quarterly, generally on the last Monday of the month, and are open to everyone in the Club. The purpose of the meetings is to give everyone an opportunity to have a say in how the Club is run, ask questions, provide feedback or just come along and listen. Please come along.

·        Each meeting will start at 7:00 pm and will aim to finish by 8:30 pm

 

JUNIORS

 

 

The junior’s section is very important to the future of the Club and to the sport. In addition to our regular Tuesday night sessions for juniors we would like to start offering additional training sessions for any local children that wish to get involved in running or fitness.  Hopefully, one day, we will have a Tamar Trotters’ junior team that enters cross-country or similar competitions. We would particularly like to hear from anyone who wishes to coach juniors in the future or has ideas on how we can develop this side of the Club.

 

CLUB FUTURE & NEW CLUBHOUSE

 

 

We are working towards obtaining a new Club House for ourselves. This is a big step and will involve a lot of effort to secure the plot, obtain the relevant permissions and raise the funds (i.e. lottery funding etc.). A lot of work has been done already but there is still a lot more to do. We would really appreciate input from members who have experience of planning, building services, fund raising etc. These meetings can also be used to plan the future direction of the Club, we welcome all ideas and suggestions.

 

COACHING / RUNNING / GROUP LEADERS

Chaired by Kevin O’Reilly

 

 

Our Club training sessions are arguably the most important aspect of the Club and are definitely the area that affects the most people. To ensure that our sessions stay relevant, interesting, effective and fun we would like input from our members. These meetings will also discuss Group Leaders, coaching and racing.
