Reda handed out ‘Standard of Behaviour’ sheets, as printed on BKA website and suggests clubs take note of this and crack down on behaviour especially as more juniors are now playing. Reda just wanted to highlight the fact that there needs to be more discipline on court and more control from the refs.

 

Liv requested 1140 pounds from the CKA for new equipment for juniors. 2 new primary schools as asking for equipment. Lee suggested applying to Awards for All. Takes approximately 10 weeks for a decision so until then the CKA are willing to underwrite, subject to the application being made,  until grant is approved. Order to placed in the meantime.

 

League structure for next season was discussed and it was decided that it cannot be finalised until we know how many teams there will be in the new season. Playoffs for promotion/relegation should go ahead and if league structure is changed then teams will be placed accordingly. Clubs will be sent a survey via e-mail on league structure, i.e. 2 or 3 divisions, but CKA committee will have final word.
