Watson *Resigned +Deceased 29 October, 2006 2 Black Diamond AFL Inc 2006 Annual Report PRESIDENT’S REPORT I am pleased to report to you that the league has enjoyed another successful season. Singleton was added as a new club this year and although their committee’s initial intention was the submission of an Under 18 grade their reserve grade turned out to each game to finish in fourth position. At a meeting with the Board, Singleton player and convenor, Corey Oldham informed them that he had placed an advertisement in the Singleton Argus Newspaper regarding a team and received 65 replies. This in itself is a good indication of a healthy interest in the Hunter Valley club and with this in mind the board had thoughts of Singleton entering the first grade sooner rather than later. Unfortunately, this does not appear to be the case. Whilst we gained Singleton we lost Woy Woy’s Under 18 team which was suspended when they forfeited their fourth game for the season in round 8. The Woy Woy Club needs to give their future a frank evaluation. The season progressed relatively well with few problems. Clubs were geared into upgrading the results etc. on Sporting Pulse, our representative programme was set in place and the rules and by-laws had been amended with new provisions added for the league and clubs each to supply a child protection officer. Our codes of conduct were upgraded, we adopted an infection diseases policy and a racial and religious vilification policy was introduced. Our rules are increasing in an attempt to negate any possible litigation, insurance issues and social pressures which might result from events occurring in and around our games. Some perennial matters still plague the league. These include the severe inconvenience caused when three team clubs have to split their number when playing clubs with two teams. This is a major concern in the league with the two team clubs almost completely unaffected. Of course the root of problem is catering for the different number of teams in each grade and providing a draw to suit. Umpiring is probably always going to be a concern for the league and this situation is probably consistent with similar competitions throughout Australia. This year we applied more pressure to clubs to supply club umpires to control certainly first division and at times under 18 games. This concept is generally regarded as foreign and an intrusion into the playing ranks. It was not well received but is one which we have to persist with if we are going to continue to field the number of teams in the competition we do. The winners of the Black Diamond Cup, Cardiff, had an outstanding team and sensational season. They were worthy of their premiership and their place in the history of the BDAFL – three successive premierships and figured in each grand final since the league’s inception. Again Garry Burkinshaw as General Manager played a pivotal role in the league’s activities. He is the engine room of the competition and carries out league policy under the direction of the board without fear or favour. I again commend Garry for his work. 29 October, 2006 3 Black Diamond AFL Inc 2006 Annual Report Again, I worked very closely with the General Manager. Phone calls and emails passed between us very often, sometimes several times a day. I have established a good rapport with him and this relationship has been very fruitful for the league. With the seniors we have settled into an 18 h & a season and four finals. It works well. Again we have had suggestions of expanding the finals to five teams, but the Board can see little credence in the proposal. This year we were able to encourage the involvement Panthers Newcastle, Fosters Australia with the league and in preparation for 2007 and beyond, Prime Television. Our Business Group proved not as successful as it has been in previous seasons and this year did not deliver the funds the league considered it would. It was offset by the involvement of Panthers Newcastle who approached us midseason with a view of establishing a commercial relationship. This was achieved and launched at a President’s Meeting in May. We have found the association rewarding and we happily transferred the league’s medal night in September to the downtown venue. A function was also held at the club in March when Carlton FC visited Newcastle as part of the AFL’s Community Camps and again in August when Panthers hosted a Barassi Club function. It is so important that the league continues to generate sufficient funds to augment it’s operations. Club affiliation fees still comprise the major income stream with the introduction of certain initiatives we have been able to curb any increase in this area for a number of years. To maintain this situation the league must be forever vigilant in sourcing as many areas of alternative and legitimate income as possible. A new concept this year was to place surplus funds the league was holding into a short term investment account. At times the league, and not necessarily by design, has a surplus of funds in it’s accounts whilst it awaits payment for a particular expense, ie insurance etc. The idea was to invest this money to derive interest from it rather than let it wallow in the cheque account for a month or so. Pleasingly this has generated in excess of $1,500 this year and we will be looking to maintain this strategy in the future. It is these types of ideas we need to pursue. Without doubt our biggest achievement this year was the performance in the Cougar Sportswear Country Championships at Wagga Wagga in May. Upon winning the three lead-up games had the league play the RFL in the decider and at half time in that match had not kicked a goal to the opposition’s five. We managed one in the third term but were still 30 points down at the last change. To be in that position then come out and win the game was an outstanding effort and those who were there, I dare say, will never again witness a match of this capacity xxx in their lifetime. The win is a benchmark for the league evidence of the competition’s improvement and standing within the community. The other representative game was the Under 18 team which travelled to Canberra to play an ACT representative team. 29 October, 2006 4 Black Diamond AFL Inc 2006 Annual Report We had a number of officials withdraw before the trip which left it bare of supervisors so hours before the bus left I decided to travel with the team. We were provided with apartment style accommodation which was spread over a large area. The night before the game and after the boys had been fed and returned to their billet, I and another official left the area for a short period and boys being boys, a number of them found the temptation of alcohol too much resulting in officials having to nurse some players throughout the night. A large damage bill was paid to the facility owners in the morning. One player was suspended from participating in the game.
