E. R. C. Squash Section

Committee Meeting Minutes
21st December, 2000


1. Present Errol Ferris, Paul Heneghan, Brian Ireland, David Wales
2. Squash Membership List Brian Ireland circulated an up-to-date membership list.

Each player is marked with a provisional grading:
A - county standard, down to F - can just about hit the ball

These need to be checked and amended where necessary.

We plan to organize an Open Grading Event during 2001.

Action BI, EF, PH, TA

3. Marking Courses

Team players of standard A, B or C should attend a marking course.  To be discussed at the next meeting.

4. Squash Court Gallery

The state of the gallery has improved considerably over the last few months.

Paul Heneghan, Steve Porter and Neil Healey disposed of the old light fittings.

Brian Ireland has got the championship boards updated.

We also now have a notice board which contains squash-related material like the SRA's Club Accreditation Scheme.  Brian has ordered several SRA posters which will also be displayed on the board and round the gallery.

Brian Ireland obtained a combination lock for the gallery door which should make the area a little more secure and allow the storage of racket-ball rackets etc.

Early rounds: 23rd, 24th, 25th, 30th, 31st March, 1st April
