March Minutes

Attendance: Horst (Chairman), Albert (Vice Chairman), Otto (Finance Manager), Tony (Secretary), Manalo, Jord, Flemming, Simon, Angelo, Rudolf and Panny (members)

So the free beer 'won the day' with a great turn-out of players for the meeting. Well done guys, nice to see you all and to cap it all your secretary has produced the minutes the following morning! ....

1. Otto has been instructed, again, to purchase nets for the goals at Timex at a cost of P1,400
2. We have a provisional date of April 8th for the Panglao, family trip. Downpayment of P1000, is needed by March 25th.
3. Horst has followed-up his approach to the Moalboal team for a game of football here in Cebu. He is targeting March 25th for the game but will confirm latter. We will probably have a BBQ after the game followed by some extra curicular activities. Otto will scout what's available.
4. Our Finance Manager informed us that we had P15,920 in the bank.
5. Peter has asked for support with bringing over 300 pairs of football boots and shirts from the Netherlands to the Philippines. These will be donated to 'needy' children. We will refer Peter to Mark, Vice Chairman, Cebu FC who we believe will be in a btter position to help.
6. There is a 38+ tournament promoted in the Sun Star by Queen City to be held in April. Simon will check-out the legitamcy of this story this weekend and report.
7. Vice Chairman Albert is, with a great deal of regret, leaving the Philippines on the completion of his contract. He will be missed. As such we looked for his successor, which after a great deal of heart searching and freedom of the secretary writting the notes (you see the English do have some control) Panny has accepted the position. However, Angelo will maintain the Blog given Panny's limited abilities with technology.
8. Albert, leaving in June, will be organising a 'World Cup Betting Syndicate' and will be posting details shortly.
9. A name change for the club was mutted with a change from 'soccer' to 'football', but there was not enough interest to drive this through...
10. If you get time please give a thought to Jacob who is presently in Chong Hua Hospital, room 709 after badly damaging his knee whilst playing football on Wednesday evening.
