Stroud Table Tennis Club Annual General Meeting held on 30th August 2014.

Jim thanked the members for attending and outlined the background to the meeting the STTC was
now a freestanding club, affiliated to the League, but separately managed.
Copies of the Constitution and Five Year Plan were distributed for members to read.
The club was a key part of the Five Year Plan and would manage the Youth League and the School
Satellite Clubs. The Marling after school club would be restarting on 15th September, and in
October a new club at KLB school would start. The Youth League, National Cadet team and
National Junior teams would all come under the management of STTC.
Under the constitution, a membership fee structure would be needed and this was discussed.
Various levels of fees were proposed and discussed but a proposal by Jane Leigh, seconded by Mike
May that senior players would pay 5 and juniors 3 per year was carried. Playing fees would be 3
per session for all ages. This was carried.
The Constitution was proposed by Mark Frape and seconded by Dave Adamson and was approved
by those members present.
