This seasons captain Mr Chedzoy has announced his intention to stand down as the clubs captain for next season due to work commitments and the fact that he might not even be in the country next year. Any player who fancies the job and is happy to take on the responsibility for team selection and on pitch captaincy should make it known and the club committee will make a decision.
Also after doing it for too many years and giving notice last year I’m confirming that I’m going to step down as secretary for next season. It was hard enough last year with me living outside of Cardiff but with me now also working equally far away in another direction it’s proven quite a headache. It’s also wound work up good and proper due to my having to commit to be at games sometimes twice a week so unable to travel.
The secretary role is suited to someone who can commit to being at the vast majority of games – I think I’ve missed 2 in the last 4 years – as you are responsible for making sure the scorecards are completed and signed, the score texted in and the scorecard copied up and scanned or posted to the league the next day. You would also be responsible for any communication with the league and other teams. I’m happy to carry on doing the web site if the person taking over is able to send me the copy of the scorecard. Any volunteers? Please note we can’t have a team if we don’t have a secretary.
