      The minutes of the last meeting were agreed and signed off as a true record.

      1. Chairman’s Report
        Another successful season. The Six A Side was a particularly successful fund raising event this year. Thanks to Peter Piper for his support with provision of barbeque. This Saturday’s Race Night raised £140 for the club.
        On the pitch the Chairman was pleased with games, player standard, quality of cricket and general team spirit. Good to see the youngsters (Hills, Betts) and new players (Terry, Ashton) playing well.

      2. Captain Saturday Team Report
        Played well this season, and gave good account at end of season against Westgate. Especially pleased with the individual performances of M Deveson (wickets), A Betts (runs), K Deveson (runs), T Marriot (runs), G Phebey (runs, not catches!) and J Kenton’s hat-trick.
        The tour was enjoyable although we didn’t play well. Thanks again to P Piper for driving.

        1. Captain Sunday Team Report

        Good season with no struggle for players. Deal Vics was a particularly good game. Congratulations to H Kenton for his 100. Several 50s scored this season.

        1. Treasurer’s Report
          Please see Annual Accounts (attached) for detail.
          In general a good year, with no games calendar for weather therefore providing good income.
          Fantasy League was not well supported this year and for this reason will not be repeated until 2011 season.
          Deadline for Parish Council Grant applications imminent. Apply asap (Chairman)
          Tilmanstone Regeneration Fund. Need to apply now. (Chairman)
