New Chairman and President for 2023
We recently held our AGM, during which our current Chairman Colin Godber decided to step down after 5 very successful years at the helm.
Our President Jenny also stepped down and it seemed only fitting that Colin be proposed as our new club President.
​
Following these changes we are delighted to announce Alex McGregor was voted in as our new Chairman with Steve Narey taking his place as internal competition secretary.
We wish them all every success into 2023
