Notes from the KAA AGM
Finally held at Medway Archers on Sunday 19th November with 22 members from 11 clubs and one direct member.
Reports were submitted and discussed and those listed below have been elected for the fort coming year, unfortunately there are vacancies and the committee will be seeking members to fill the gaps, including the Tournament Organisers. Anybody wanting to fill a gap and undertake a role please be assured that there will be full support to help you.
As it stands we only have one tournament organiser for a senior outdoor tournament so we may be seeking your thoughts on which shoot to hold if we can’t find a TO.
