Honorary Treasurer’s Report The Honorary Treasurer’s Report was received. Further to the report circulated the Honorary Treasurer stated he had being carrying out this role for 26 years. He was pleased that the auditors found ANI fit for purpose and also pleased with the 16% increase in retained earnings from the last year end in September 2017. He said that the audit process was very strict and it took over 2 months to deal with all the auditor’s queries. 6. Chair’s Remarks The Chair began his report by stating that he had been the Chair of ANI for 12 years and thanked everyone involved in athletics for the support they had given him over that period. He also thanked the Honorary Secretary and Honorary Treasurer for all the work they did, a lot of which was unseen He wished J Allen all the best as he takes over the role of Chair. He then thanked A Wall for taking the minutes this evening. He thanked the two main committees for all the work they do on a voluntary basis. In the Cross Country and Road Running Committee, J Quinn and T Wall have acted as Chair and Secretary respectively for many years. This meeting would also see J McLaughlin step down from this committee, which he had been involved in for over 25 years. He had been a top class athlete before joining this committee and would be greatly missed. He also referred to the work done by J Alexander and B Scott on the Competitions Committee. He went on to say that a lot of our officials are recognised at a UK level, with J Alexander often helping at national events. He congratulated K Scott on being awarded Young Official of the Year by Sport NI. He also said that other regions in the UK envy the standard of officials we have in Northern Ireland. He then talked about the role that J Glover plays in athletics in Northern Ireland and the way he works tirelessly for the sport. He was delighted that he was recently awarded the British Empire Medal. He then thanked Jackie Newton for all the work she had put into the most recent Commonwealth Games. The results from these games with regard to athletics had been very good, which will have a positive impact on the funding we received. Leon Reid had got a bronze in the 200m, and our other athletes had also performed well. Dempsey McGuigan was 6th in the hammer, Emma Mitchell broke a Northern Ireland record, Adam Kirk-Smith was 8th in the steeplechase, Kate O’Connor was 8th in the heptathlon and Kevin Seaward was 4th in the marathon, He also thanked the office staff members, who were led by Kerry Woods. He felt that the office was always a very pleasant place to visit. He thought that Kerry was always professional, helpful and cheerful and that athletics owed a great debt to all the office staff. He then thanked Dr I. Taylor for his work to date as President. The post involved a great time commitment and involved a lot of travel. It was interesting that he was the third English President following Brian Downing and Pam Brown. He was heartened that ANI now had over 8,000 members. It was really a small business following the taking off of the jogging boom. He has been in the sport since he was 13, and had always worked with some great people. He remembered Les Jones who had always influenced him and had left a great legacy. He finally wished David Abrahams all the best in his new post of Vice-Chair. David would become Chair of ANI after a year. He was a former international athlete and will bring great business acumen to the post. 7. Election of Office Bearers President: Dr I Taylor No election Vice Presidents: Mr T Alderdice No election Mr J Glover These Vice Presidents are to stand in for the President when they are unable to attend an event. Honorary Life Members J Allen proposed the R Corry and D Seaton are appointed as honorary life members following their stepping down as Honorary Treasurer and Chair respectively. He also proposed that J Quinn be appointed as an honorary life member. This was agreed by all present. Chair: Mr J Allen No election Vice-Chair: Mr D Abrahams By appointment Honorary Treasurer: Mr A Wall By appointment 8. Election of Other Honorary Positions, Sub-Committees & Delegates to Other Bodies Cross Country & Road Running Proposed Seconded Mr D Seaton Mr L Cochrane Mrs M Mathieson Mrs M Mathieson Ms W Davis Dr I Taylor Mr J Quinn Mrs M Mathieson Dr I Taylor Mr R Black Mr A Wall Mr R Fullerton Mr P Magee Mr G Carson Ms W Davis Mr R Montgomery Mrs M Mathieson Mr J McGarvey Mr R Fullerton Mr D Seaton Mr L Cochrane Mr R Corry Ms W Davis Mrs M Mathieson Mr J McGarvey Mr A Wall Mr D Seaton Mr L Cochrane Mr R Corry Mr R Fullerton Track & Field Competitions Committee Proposed Seconded Mrs B Scott Ms W Davis Mrs W Philips Ms S Nixon Mrs W Philips Ms W Davis Mrs E Ferguson Mrs B Scott Ms W Davis Mrs W Phillips Mr K Scott Dr I Taylor Mr R Mack Mrs B Scott Mrs A Maguire Ms W Davis Mr R Fullerton Mrs B Scott Mr K Scott Ms W Davis Mrs W Philips Mrs E Glover Mrs A Maguire Mr R Fullerton Mr J Glover Mr K Scott Mrs B Scott Mr R Fullerton Ms W Davis Mrs W Philips Mr F Marsh Ms J Newton Mr D Seaton Although 11 people were nominated for this committee, which is one more than required, J Allen felt that rather than go through an election, the committee should co-opt one of the above at their next meeting.

  • Athletics Inclusive April - June 2021
    ATHLETICS INCLUSIVE APRIL - JUNE 2021 Welcome to the second edition of the quarterly equality, diversity and inclusion news from UK Athletics, Athletics Northern Ireland, England Athletics, Scottish Athletics and Welsh Athletics. PARA INCLUSION Welsh Athletics As part of our ongoing commitment to closer working with Disability Sport Wales [DSW], Welsh Athletics is in the process of recruiting a jointly funded Para Athletics Pathway Coordinator. We have seen great recent success at the European Para-athletics Championships with a total of 7 medals from Welsh Athletes and we hope this joint working will continue and build on this success as the organisation become more closely integrated. The role will support the development and progression of Para Athletes within the Athletics Pathway (from community through to performance) as identified by Disability Sport Wales and Welsh Athletics. It will aim to ensure that all Para Athletes within the pathway have access to appropriate and meaningful community opportunities to support individual needs. There will also be mentoring and upskilling outreach support for athletes, coaches, clubs and key contacts in collaboration with the DSW Performance Pathway Team and WA. This is an exciting opportunity in a role which will be fully integrated into the Welsh Athletics Performance team at the start of preparations for the Birmingham 2022 Games. Scottish Athletics With athletics training returning across the country, a Safe Return to Training guide has been produced for wheelchair and frame running to remind athletes, coaches and clubs of the extra safety considerations. The guidance highlights equipment checks, how to minimise risks, training safely on the track and training safely on the road.

  • Consultation on the Formal Membership of UK Athletics
    England Athletics Athletics House Alexander Stadium Stadium Way Walsall Road, Perry Barr Birmingham B42 2BE Tel: 0121 347 6543 www.englandathletics.org Consultation on the Formal Membership of UK Athletics Information for England Athletics Affiliated Clubs and Member Bodies Dear Club Secretary, In November 2020, together with the other three Home Country Athletics Federations (HCAFs) and UK Athletics (UKA), we announced a new 12-year strategy for athletics and running across the whole of the UK. Alongside this new strategy, reflecting our shared commitment to a collaborative approach, the five organisations have established a new partnership framework that includes new approaches to ways of working across the organisations to develop athletics across the UK, to create alignment, to make the best use of resources, and to ensure there is accountability for the delivery of the strategy. As part of the changes to its governance, the UK Athletics Annual General Meeting on 11 December 2020 passed several resolutions to amend its Articles of Association to enable each HCAF to nominate a director to the UK Athletics Board. This change has now been implemented giving the Board of England Athletics the ability to appoint a director to the Board of UK Athletics. Experienced official and club volunteer, Peter Crawshaw, has agreed to fulfil this role. England Athletics has had a position for UK Athletics on its Board since its inception and is delighted that this has now been filled by Anne Wafula-Strike. Membership structure of UK Athletics It was agreed at the UK Athletics AGM in December that, in accordance with the recommendations of the external Review of UK Athletics (the Street Report), detailed proposals would be formulated to enable formal consultation with the Sport on the future legal membership of UK Athletics, formerly known as the UK Members Council (UKMC), now known as UKA Members.
