    So i thought i'd try and document a year in the life of the comp sec, 
    Normally when theres a changeover theres a transition period of a couple of months before the official handover, this year for one reason and another I wasn't accepted into the post until 18th December so that the transition has been a bit fast tracked, but as i've been involved in the regulations committee things didn't come as too much of a shock. 
    So following on from Pauls successful voting at the tech forum, a cross section of the championship have been working on the changes to the regulations incorporating the decisions of the competitors with the needs of the MSA, after 7 weeks we've finally come to a point where the regulations can be submitted to the MSA for approval.
    Officially I became comp sec on the 1st January, but In the background i've booked the ESV for both Curboroughs, the Oyster Catcher for October, confirmed the Championship Stewards and Eligibility Scruitineer, filled various mandatory posts for both Curboroughs, and drafted out the supplemental regulations for Curborough.
     Sunday 10th got together with Paul to had across the tips & tricks, as well as the box of files & spare trophies as well as taking ownership of both the email account and blatchat profile.
    So what next.....

    So this week sees us preparing for this weekends management team meeting, the club holds 4 management teams over the year and already has a full agenda, some old hands but quite a few new faces taking up the volunteer roles that help the club to operate.
    Still trying to finalise the regulations after receiving more conflicting information, we are trying to have the regulations issued in draft format for the 14th February, and open the championship entries at the same time, (fingers crossed)

    Seems a long time since the last blog post, so I wonder where the month has gone.
    the Curborough regulations and championship regulations have been submitted, with the permits for both Curborough rounds coming through quite quickly, but still chasing the championship permit.
    Championship entries are steadily coming in but looks like I'll be digging up some incriminating photo's for those who have not sent one in. Over 30 signed up already in the first week, and tonight the online payment system has gone live.
    the event regulations have started coming out and notices being pushed out to competitors using the new mailing list system, it's surprising how many members change there email address but don't let Sam the members Secretary know, so there emails bounce.
    like many, I used to assume that changing the forum email address changes the membership details the club uses to keep in contact, but that's not the case.
    last weekend saw us taking advantage of the free MSA training, each year they focus on different focus groups,  this year was based around unlicenced officials, nothing wrong with not being licenced , but these are volunteers fulfill everything from Secretary of the meeting, comp Sec and every other volunteer role you can think of which does not require a licence.
    some good thought provoking challenges from both the participants and the MSA trainers.
