Id have thought preseason training was something they'd get round to doing. I'm not going to go book a field then find out they're doing it.
If I hadn't of heard they were having a meeting about it, I'd probably get more proactive and email around people trying to organise something rather than emailing around asking what is going on.
It's also pretty risky going over their heads, what if they hadn't of reimbursed you?
As AJ13 has done you need to get active with your club.
i have had a lot of friends at BNU in the past when she was really struggling and the Psycho's with the girl's team and a few others helped raise money and get the social side going as well as be active on the committee.
i know they struggled and had some hard choice's to make but i also know the survived
This was similar to what we had done at North Wellington when i started to play.
We had no money and a mortgage we struggled to pay and i am proud to say i was part of pulling a club out of bankruptcy and getting the football on the park working as well.
But it was done with players who were working with others with experience to teach them and be cause we were players not parents who thought they knew best we created a real passionate club about the players not some ego of a parent with too much money.
So i hope you get involved to help then learn as these committee members might be getting tired and not doing everything as they should but they don't have the energy to fix it without help.
Transient club members can also cause problems with clubs as they will come in make change and do things but in the end are only there for themselves and can leave the club in a state of kaos so if this has happened in the past you may need to take your time in getting onto the committee as there might be some distrust.
My club is going though a stage at present where the youth voting block has elected there junior committee members who know nothing about a senior football club and are administrators with no connection to the park and players except one guy who says nothing and is not encouraged to engage which is a shame.
so the ball is your court
good sportsmanship and fair playing field is all we ask for
but all we get is talk and goal posts moving
