It was suggested that there may be some things just to cover the most recent update to the basics, the roles of the Planner and Controller in regards to Event Safety, and possibly on the potential new map symbols being considered by the IOF. Coaching - The Annual Coaching Conference takes place in Crewe on 14th/15th January and the booking form is now available on the BO website. Clubs are asked to encourage their coaches to attend. Junior Squad – The Junior Squad had had a lot of activity including attending JIRCS in Scotland and a training weekend in Malham. Future Events: (i) 27 November 2016 – East Midlands Champs 2016 – LEI – Wakerley (ii) 12 March 2017 – CompassSport Cup Round – LOG – Burwell and Haugham (iii) 18 March 2018 – Midland Champs 2018 – LEI Belvoir Future Possible Events (i) Junior Inter-Regional Champs 2018 Page 4 EMEWS (ii) British Sprints / Middles 2019 – LEI / DVO (iii) 17 March 2019 – CompassSport Cup Heat 2019 – NOC (iv) Midland Champs 2020 – DVO (v) CompassSport Cup Final 2021 – Are EMOA interested in hosting? (vi) British / British Relays 2021 – Talking to other regions about possible use of their areas. (vii) Midland Champs 2022 - NOC British Orienteering EGM - The EGM passed option 1 which means membership fees for 2017 are £10 senior, £3.30 for Junior and £1.50 event levy. Club / Association Conference – A number of representatives attended the conference which covered a variety of interesting topics, and a couple of papers were shared by the committee. Amendments to the EMOA Constitution and Standing Orders - British Orienteering have identified words that need to be included in club and association constitutions in order to comply with child safety. It is planned to include these at the next EMOA AGM. At the recent EMOA AGM it was agreed that both Mark and Chris would stay on for one more year, over their 3 years maximum as stated in the standing orders. A change to the EMOA standing orders was therefore agreed with the words to be included under Election of Principal Officers that an officer can serve “for not more than 3 consecutive years, unless mutually agreed by the Principal Officers, when no other person has been nominated”. Air Dibbers - Amanda Roberts stated that LOG had borrowed the DVO air dibbers for their recent event. They wondered if it would be worth having a set of regional SI dibbers. The committee felt that it is not practical and would prove very costly at this stage. Dates and venues for future meetings - All meetings to be held at the Pace Room, St Mary’s Church, Clifton Village, Nottinghamshire at 7.30 p.m. The next committee meeting is scheduled for Monday January 30th 2017. The following meeting is scheduled for Monday April 3rd 2017. ----ooo---- Planners & Controllers Conference The date for the Planners & Controllers Conference is set for Saturday March 4th.
