Fundraising Final figure raised from Sponsored walk was £1067.30 Pitches: Cottingley Bar pitch- John has spoken to the council, we pay to use grade E pitches, they have been upgraded to D pitches therefore fees will increase to £220.00 for the year. It is available to use this year, however we need to liaise with Shipley Juniors regarding alternate weeks. Minutes of previous meeting accepted, proposed Gary Horton, and seconded Peter Marriott.
MATTERS ARISING: We are over paying for school pitches due to the league dictating the dates/times we have to play matches, up to xmas the bill for school pitches is £420. John has sourced another 11-a-side pitch to use for “one-off” matches this is slightly cheaper than the schools large pitch- need to speak to John for more details.
