• Andrew Hintz (allrounder, age 53) February 2016 • Dr Jeanette Hickford (supporter) December 2015 • Peter (PJ) Low (bowler, age 86) April 2016 • Rona Kennedy (supporter) May 2016 • Jean Germon (scorer & supporter) June 2016

7 3. APPROVAL OF 110TH AGM MINUTES (12TH OCTOBER 2015): Motion to approve the minutes of the 110th AGM as documented in the 111th Annual Report as a true and correct record. Mover: Peter Burke, Seconder: Shane Young. Motion carried with/without amendments.

4. ADOPTION OF ANNUAL REPORT AND ANNUAL ACCOUNTS (DA): 4.1 ANNUAL REPORT DISCUSSION The annual report was presented by Greg Bolton-Brown as written. The following discussion points were raised: • EQC evaluation EQC evaluation of the building revealed that the Pavilion is ~50% of the NBS (New Building Standard). The minimum requirement is 33%, so as far as the government and council is concerned, the building is safe to be occupied. Notwithstanding, the committee continues to look at what is best for the club and our members to strengthen the building. This work is being lead by Shane Young. The EQC settlement figure comes in the annual account under ‘Current Year’. Under the guidance of the EQC findings, the building is deemed safe to use by the committee. • Joint ownership of the pavilion with CCC and FC2011 The issue of formalising the joint ownership of the pavilion and changing rooms is a matter on the committee agenda, but is not yet resolved. • FC2011 Insurance Payout John Thompson noted that he understands that the FC2011 received a payment of some description from EQC, as noted in their AGR. BWCUCC has not received any money from this. Greg Bolton Brown was unaware of this, and will follow up with John Thompson and Shane Young to clarify the position and if necessary take this up with the FC2011 committee.

8 4.2 ANNUAL ACCOUNTS Doug Allcock provided a brief summary of the previous year’s financial performance of the club. • The ‘highlight’ being that the club ran a $5,000 surplus for the last financial year. It is expected that the next year the club will run a deficit, mostly due to the expense of the pavilion deck renovation, and normal club operations. The expense of the deck is being offset by good work from the committee in fundraising - particularly through Grants Officer Peter Burke, and Sponsorship Coordinator Dan Vedder.

4.3 MOTION: TO APPROVE 111TH ANNUAL REPORT AND ANNUAL ACCOUNTS AS SUMMARISED IN THE 111TH ANNUAL REPORT. Mover: Peter Burke Seconder: John Thompson. Motion carried with/without amendments.

5. SUBSCRIPTIONS 5.1 2016/2017 SUBSCRIPTIONS • Greg Bolton Brown summarised the 2016/2017 subscription levels. No major changes were noted. Alan Alty requests that the naming of the Jack Kerr Pride Club be more obvious to bring greater recognition to this membership level. This was acknowledged and generally agreed.

5.2 MOTION: TO APPROVE PLAYER SUBSCRIPTION LEVELS AS SUMMARISED IN THE 111TH ANNUAL REPORT. Mover: Dan Vedder Seconder: Brett Thomson. Motion carried with/without amendments.

9 6. ELECTION OF OFFICERS Greg Bolton Brown summarised that the clubs officer position nominations are as recorded in the 111th Annual Report. 6.1 MOTION: TO APPROVE ELECTION OF OFFICERS AS SUMMARISED IN THE 111TH ANNUAL REPORT. Mover: Mike Hastings Seconder: Shane Young Motion carried with/without amendments.

7. GENERAL BUSINESS 7.1 SPENDING OF THE JACK KERR PRIDE CLUB • Jerard Cross asked a question about the allocation of funds associated to the Jack Kerr Pride Club, and expressed a concern that the number of functions has not met the expectation of members. • In response, Shane Young explained that the Jack Kerr Pride club is still findings its feet, and that two functions are planned for this season. The first function for the upcoming year is in November on Club Day, and invitations have been delivered to existing JKPC members. The funds are generally to be spent on special projects but require committee sign-off. It is proposed that some portion of the current JKPC funds be spent on a contribution to the pavilion deck renovations.

7.2 RECRUITMENT • Jerard Cross expressed a concern that we are not doing a strong job of recruitment, particularly of high school age children. • In response, Greg Belton Brown acknowledged the concern, explained that recruitment is an ongoing and active activity, and summarised the current recruitment activity. In support, Brett Thomson pointed out that the size of the club has in fact increased in 2016/17, with more teams involved at Senior T20 and Junior levels. A strengthened relationship with NWYC is evolving, with

10 initiatives including pre-season matches with the Senior club, and using some of the Youth players as cover during double-header weekends, with a view to capture some of the school leavers as new Senior players. A recruitment drive is about to occur with an email to all registered cricketing school-leavers. This is being coordinated by the committee with the help from Christchurch Metro Cricket.

7.3 GENERAL COMMENTS ON THE ANNUAL REPORT • B F Hastings noted his pleasure at reading the annual report and commends the committee on the quality of its publication. Greg Bolton-Brown thanked all contributors, and specifically Paul Shackleton’s input on the layout and design work was acknowledged in absentia.

7.4 GENERAL COMMENTS FROM JOHN THOMPSON • John believes the club is in good shape. We punch well, and we are seen as ‘a model’ club. In particular Peter Burke’s effort in raising funds through charity application in the vicinity of $60K. The sentiment was echoed by the whole committee and acknowledged specifically by Greg Bolton-Brown.

No further General Business items were raised.

Meeting adjourned at 7:34 PM

Despite this deficit, we should acknowledge Doug Allcock the great work undertaken by Dan Vedder Treasurer in pursuing sponsorships, and running a very successful raffle during the season. His sterling efforts will continue to provide additional funding streams into the future.

We would also highlight the excellent work by Shane Young in securing a sizeable insurance settlement relating to earthquake repairs required to the clubrooms.

We would also comment on the substantial decline in the performance of the club bar. It is in part as a result of the number of lost

44 SCOTT INGLIS

MOST WICKETS AND CAPS FOR THE CLUB The 28th of January 2017 saw Scott Inglis, who joined Burnside West University in the 1999/2000 season, take his 550th wicket in all formats and become the clubs all time leading wicket taker, overtaking Peter Sharp (549) and Stephen Bateman (445).

At the end of the 2016/17 season Scott has earned 133 two-day caps, bringing to a total of 294 matches in all formats for the club, also making him the most capped player in the history of the club, and with a total of 567 wickets having bowled something in the order of 21,521 balls in Premier cricket.

This is an extraordinary achievement for any player, let alone an opening bowler. The best part about this is that Scott is still training hard in the pre-season to return to the middle and terrorise batsman at Burnside Oval this coming summer.
