District Welfare Officer/Funding & finance officer/
The district need to be run along the lines of club mark, much of this is in hand and already completed. The district would like to find people to fill the following positions: A District Welfare officer. A funding sponsorship & finance officer. Anne Craft has become the new district Secretary.We are also glad to have Graham Smith as are Chairman.

Sponsorship
We have been lucky enough to receive some sponsorship from various parties and individuals. This has enabled us to continue to provide a hardship fund. However this is not as great as past years so if you know of any companies or individuals who would be interested in sponsoring the district please get in touch. Any sponsorship gained will enable us to keep the cost of future training, specialist coaching and matches fees to a reasonable amount.
