The suggestions for subscriptions for 2020 and 2021 are:
Any club that has yet to pay for 2020 will be given an amnesty to 31.12.20 thereafter fines as previously indicated will prevail, each district will be provided with a list of clubs who have failed to pay their dues.
This includes the fees to BCGBA.
If any of these clubs wish to be members for 2021 then their 2020 fees are still due to YCCGBA and BCGBA before acceptance

Entries for 2020 Team competitions are to be credited for 2021.
You will note there will be no handbooks produced for 2021 but we will be issuing addendums for the 2020 handbooks
Should YCCGBA expenses for 2021 be less than we envisage we will look to make reductions in 2022, there is no intent for YCCGBA to make profit but we must ensure our finances are robust going forward so we may withstand pressures such as are taking place in 2020.
Please indicated your districts support/objection for this so we may put this forward for inclusion at any AGM your response is required in writing (email acceptable stevencochrane@btconnect.com) by 28th November 2020.
Honoraria and Expenses
The executive proposes that the honorarium/expenses for 2020 is as follows
The total Honorarium and expenses for 2020 will be £ 2400 this is reduced from £7935 as agreed at 2020 AGM saving YCCGBA £5535 (These figures exclude the auditor)
1: The Competition secretary undertook a lot of preparation for the season that didn’t happen and has also undertaken much of the Treasurers tasks whilst he was unavoidably committed at his new employment.
2: The Treasurer indicated he didn’t want any payment for this year but he will be producing accounts which will take 2/3 days to prepare, so the executive wished to put in a token amount, he would prefer any payment to be in expenses rather than Honorarium and this cost will cover travel, postage and stationery.
This was discussed by the executive last week.
AGM and Meetings
No decision has been taken as yet with regard to the AGM, the date Scheduled for this is the 13th February 2021 we would request you keep this date in mind until advised otherwise.
We will aim, if allowed, to hold a council meeting prior to AGM, we would prefer zoom/teams meeting but this may not suit everyone, we will report on this at the end of November/early December.
Sad News
You may have heard at the passing of stalwart and great supporter of YCCGBA, Vera Silcock. With her husband Tony, together, they are great benefactors and supporters of crown green bowling in Yorkshire, regular attendees at many events not only at county but at district level, Vera you will be sadly missed, Tony thoughts are with you and the family at this time.
Districts and Clubs contacts- Communication- ‘GoMembership’
Over the next few days we will be sending out a request for district contact details to enable us to bring everything up to date for ‘GoMembership’ and our website, following this clubs will be required to confirm their contact details, the intention going forward is that all communication will be electronic, it is therefore imperative that each club has someone who is able to receive information in this way.
Training will be taking place over the winter months on Go membership and this will be conducted on a district by district basis.
