Exec Summary update

Posted on by Scott

February 2018

Park View Community Association

Minutes of the January 2018 minutes were approved.

There are still a few clubs who have not forwarded their constitutions.  These should be forwarded as a matter of urgency to secretary.dnaa@gmail.com.

A sub-committee has been formed to (initially) reformat the Tyne –v- Tees Shoot in September.  A document showing an idea of the proposed format has been circulated to club secretaries with the minutes. They are to discuss this with the novices/intermediate archers in their clubs.

The DNAA Candidate Judge seminar was held in the middle of February.  We are pleased to announce that all five candidates who sat the exam all passed.  We hope to have a few more qualified county judges soon.

The 50th DNAA Indoor County Champs is filling up fast.  The afternoon session is nearly full and the morning session still has a few places.

The organisers of the field shoot are looking into bespoke medals for all of the County Shoots.  We will keep you updated but would like to thank them for all their hard work.

The constitution is to be amended at the AGM if you are interested in finding out what the proposed changes are, please speak to your club secretary.

Changes to the Data Protection Act may affect your club and the information that is held, please check out the Information Commissioners website for further information.

The next meeting will be held at Park View Community Association on Monday 26 March 2018 commencing at 7.30 pm.

‘Castles’ League closing month.

Posted on by Tony

Tables have been updated for February, the closing month for the winter league. News and ‘where-am-i’ have also been refreshed. The next job is to collate and print the certificates and this will be done over the coming days. In season 2017-18 we had 313 archers showing interest and 242 submitting 2 or more monthly returns. Well done to all, and I hope to be able to open the league once more for winter 2018-19. Good Shooting over the summer months!

A huge THANK YOU to Killingworth on a successful day at the 50th DNAA indoor championships. Jon and Katy from Archery GB called in to give an update on the competition review/National Ranking Pilot that has been taking place over the last few months. Thank you to those who stayed to listen and for the questions posed which I am sure will be looked into. For those of you who couldn’t say or have thought of questions since, the e-mail address you will need to send them to is : competitionreview@archerygb.org
