President's Address for 2025
I would like to thank the Management Committee and all the Club members for bestowing upon me the position of Vice President and now President of our Club, I consider it to be a great honour.
Having been a member now for several years I have loved every minute of it as the more involved I have become with the Club the more I learn. I also now realise how much work goes on in the background in the management of our Club and would like to place on record my sincere thanks to the Committee and all members who assist in helping to run the Club.
During recent years - and - in spite of covid, we have managed to keep going, but of course, we always need new members. This year, in support of this aim we have launched a publicity campaign plus a new Open Pairs competition in an endeavor to draw more attention to our Club and hopefully initiate a welcome growth in membership. I would encourage all members to do everything reasonably possible to advertise the club and to introduce new members through invitations to attend our Open Days and Monday evening Club nights.
Our Club is a community, and we all help each other through the good and the bad times - and – that is what I like about Moordown.
The Club successes of last season on the green will be a hard act to follow. However, we now have a Men’s Saturday Team, a Ladies Thursday team and an evening Triples team in the highest possible Bournemouth and District Leagues and it must be our aim to consolidate those positions this year. In addition, I offer my best wishes to all the other teams in their respective Leagues and hope that our new additional Saturday morning triples team gets off to a good start.
Finally, can I wish you all a happy, healthy and successful season.
Thank you and kind regards,
Gill Barron
President 2025
