THE AREAS STANDING COMMITTEE Meeting Is to Be Held At Minutes of the LADIES STANDING COMMITTEE meeting held on Tuesday 9th April 2013, at Ellersly House Hotel, 4 Ellersly Road, Murrayfield, Edinburgh, EH12 6HZ at 1.15pm Present Jenny Bain (President), Fiona Hardie (Vice-President), Mary Anne McWilliam (Junior Vice President), Gail Munro (Honorary Treasurer) Marion Malcolm (Aberdeen), Liz Boswell (Ayr), Margaret Gibb (Braehead), Maureen Woods (Dumfries), Lillian Carnegie (Forfar), Mary Robertson (Greenacres), Kate Adamson (Inverness), Morag Wellman (Kinross), Marion Fraser (Kirkcaldy), Jackie Craig (Lanarkshire), Susan Fleming (Lockerbie), Margaret Nicol (Murrayfield), Shelagh Fulton (Perth), Isabel Gillespie (Stirling), Maureen Parker (Stranraer), Helen Murray-Lyon (Waterfront), Suzy Wakefield (RCCC, Office Manager), Ruth Addinall (Minutes) 1. Welcome Action President Jenny said that she was glad to be back and welcomed everyone to the meeting and thanked them for coming. 2. Apologies received from Jean Gorrie (Murrayfield), Sheena Murdoch (Galleon). 3. Minutes of the meeting held on 4th March 2013 Neither Jenny nor Fiona was at this meeting as they were in Sochi at the World Juniors. The following corrections were made to the minutes: - Page 2, Item 4, Rule Changes – Alan Durno is Vice-President and not President Page 3 Item 9, Juniors Umpiring – after “had deemed to be in” add “by the players” After the above corrections were made, the minutes were approved by Mary Robertson (Greenacres) and seconded by Helen Murray-Lyon (Waterfront). 4. Matters arising There were no matters arising. 5. Treasurer’s Report Gail circulated the certified end of year accounts. It had balanced, and Alastair Hibbert, RCCC Finance Manager was happy with them. Gail asked if anyone had any comments to make or questions. Coincidentally, income and expenditure had been identical this year. Merchandising Gail was hoping to spend the summer working on new products to include the new curling stone design, and welcomed any suggestions. At this point Vice-President Fiona circulated an oven glove and cloth that she had picked up in Sochi, and it was thought that this could be a candidate for the new curling stone design. Gail had tried to contact the supplier of the pottery curling stones but had been unable to reach them, and she would try and chase them, based in Crieff, over the summer to see if she could find out what had happened. A small solid brass curling stone was also circulated and there seemed to be potential interest. 1 President Jenny asked for an opinion as to whether Ladies Branch should have a merchandising table at the Royal Club AGM, 15 June 3pm at Dewar’s, Perth and asked Gail if we had enough supplies to stock one. Gail thought if everyone All brought back their unsold stock, then there would be. There would be a table at reps the Ladies Branch AGM, and if everything was brought back for that, this could then also go to the RCCC AGM. The Centre for the event should take responsibility for organising sales, and President Jenny offered her services for Perth. 6. Correspondence None had been received. 7. Competitions World Junior Championships - Russia President Jenny went to the World Juniors in Sochi, Russia, which was also a test event for the Winter Olympics next year, accompanied by Vice-President Fiona and three of the girls’ mothers. The boys won gold which was excellent. Hannah Fleming was the current defending world champion and played Russia, a very strong team, in the final. Jenny felt that Scotland had had the strongest team all week, but there had been a lot of pressure for that final game, particularly as the boys had already won gold. The game went to the last end, but unfortunately the Russians came out on top. Congratulations should be given to Hannah Fleming, Lauren Gray, Jennifer Dodds, Abigail Brown, alternate Vicky Wright. Jenny said that it had been a delight to be with all the boys and girls. World Ladies Championships - Latvia After 4 days back home, President Jenny and Vice-President Fiona then flew out to Latvia to support Eve Muirhead, Anna Sloan, Vicky Adams, Clare Hamilton and alternate Lauren Gray. It was absolutely brilliant, and the final came down to last stone of the last end. The semi-final had been a bit touch and go, but Eve had made a very good tactical decision with her last stone, and forced the Canadian skip to make an error. Scotland had lost to Sweden twice already in the competition and weren’t going to lose to them again in the final! It was a great achievement and 11 years since gold was won by Jackie Lockhart in 2002. Morton Final – Kirkcaldy Tuesday 12 March Vice-President Fiona and JVP Mary Anne were able to attend, but there were travelling problems due to an accident on the M8. Marion Fraser (Kirkcaldy) had phoned Fiona, who recommended that as there was an umpire present, then an umpire’s ruling should be sought. The original draw, Inverness v Ayr & Lanarkshire v Kinross, was abandoned as Ayr & Lanarkshire had not all arrived by 10 am due to the M8 problems and so Inverness played Kinross, who won 2 of the 3 games. Ayr eventually played against Lanarkshire and won 2 of the 3 games, all games starting within 30 minutes of the official start time. The final started at 2pm and saw Lorraine Shaw (Ayr) against Anne Gibbs (Inverness), Gail Thomson (Ayr) against Brenda MacIntyre (Inverness) and Margaret Agnew (Ayr) against Mo Simpson (Inverness). The spectators enjoyed high standards of curling with a win for all 3 Ayr skips. Vice-President Fiona had presented the Morton Trophy to Liz Boswell from Ayr. President Jenny congratulated Ayr on their victory. Morag Wellman (Kinross) thanked Kirkcaldy for the organisation and the superb hospitality. Discussion then followed on the problems and the decisions made. Morag Wellman said that as Captain of the Kinross teams she had been approached by the umpire, who had spoken to Colin Hamilton, and the implication was that in the spirit of curling the draw should be abandoned and the 2 full teams that were there should play each other. Gail was astounded that this had happened and that they hadn’t adhered to the 30 minute rule. The rule book is very clear and gives the penalties for a late start, and the umpire should really have worked to the rule 2 book, and not changed the draw. It is important that it should be minuted that this decision had not set a precedent. There is a judgement call to be made when the rules should be applied and when they could be relaxed, but it should be seen to be fair for everyone. Marion Malcolm (Aberdeen) was asked if she would raise the issue at the Umpires’ Committee. Scottish Mixed Championships – Aberdeen This was won by Ewan MacDonald, Eve Muirhead, Euan Byers and Karen Barthelemy. They are the current European champions and will be defending their title at Murrayfield, 14-21 September, and President Jenny encouraged everyone to attend and support them. Curling is getting more media coverage, but these competitions need to be supported by curlers as well. Margaret Nicol (Murrayfield) pointed out that additional seating would be available on one of the end sheets of ice, and not just on the balcony. 8. Ladies Branch Business Junior Vice-President As yet there had still been no nominations. President Jenny said that it was only for 3 years and you got to meet a great number of lovely people. It was a great eye-opener to what goes on behind the scenes, and the realisation that without people prepared to stand for these positions nothing would happen. If anyone knows anyone who they think would make a good junior vice-president, to let her know. Ladies Branch AGM – Murrayfield, 7 May 2013 2:30 President Jenny circulated a list for everyone to indicate whether they would be on the committee next year and if they were not standing, to give the name of their replacement. Suzy Wakefield (RCCC) said that she already had some of these details. Jenny also said that everyone was invited to join her for a lunch at 12:15, following the pre-AGM meeting at 10:30, both at the Ellersly House Hotel. Next years representatives were invited to both the pre-AGM meeting and the lunch. By Ladies Branch rules, representatives can stand for a maximum of 4 consecutive years, but it depends more on the constitution of each Centre as to who is the nominated representative. Anyone standing for posts at the AGM should get their proposers and seconders prepared and provide in advance their proposal speeches. President Jenny recommended everyone to read the RCCC annuals as they were a fount of information, including all previous speeches. President Jenny also invited everyone to an evening “soiree” at her house the night before on Monday May 6th. Accommodation was available at the Premier Inn in Inveresk for £35 a night, and she would arrange transport, if required, from there to her house. 2013/2014 Meeting dates Meetings would still generally be held on the first Tuesday of the month at 1:15 at the Ellersly House Hotel. Dates of Interest This is the renamed Steal & Share section. Betty Kitson, Aberdeen, Wednesday 9 October Lanarkshire Ladies Open, Wednesday 9 October Kinross Ladies Open, Wednesday 16 October Perth Ladies Open, Thursday 14 November Perth Ladies Open Pairs, sponsored by Chantelle, Wednesday 27 November Unders & Overs, Stranraer, 5-6 October, closing date 30 August – a fantastic event, 2 under 25’s and 2 over 25’s – consult Gail if anyone short of a younger 3 player Ladies Branch Bonspiel, Murrayfield, Monday 7 October - it was suggested that this would be used as the 175th anniversary event and that Past Presidents could be invited.
