by 26th January. (SMAC Club Rules are on this website under Club Information - you need an account to access this area of the website).
For 2010/2011 the posts of Club Secretary and The Coordinator of the Junior Boys are both up for election.
The committee is aware that Secretary's work can easily become a rather off-putting catch-all type of job and consequently be a daunting prospect for anyone who might be interested. This year every effort will be made by the committee to restrict the workload to the manageable bare essentials, which should not require more than130 hours of anyone's time in a year. This time includes attending meetings (every committee member devotes around 24 hours of their time attending meetings anyway), taking and printing minutes and dealing with the club's correspondence.

Fantastic Result For Alex At Cardiff |

Alex Harrison (aged 12) joined Staffs Moorlands AC in the spring of last year and showed early potential by taking a medal in the Summer Series events. Alex's talent was further substantiated during the 2009/10 North Staffs XC League fixtures where consistent performances over the four races resulted in Alex taking a silver medal. It was decided to enter Alex in the Mc Cain UK XC Challenge at Sefton Park Liverpool in November 2009. This was a major step up in class to what is widely regarded as the premier XC series in the UK and attracts the top athletes from all over the UK at junior & senior level. At Liverpool Alex finished a creditable 18th and learned a valuable lesson as he lost 10 places on the run in over the last 800m. However this valuable lesson learned served him well at the next fixture on Sunday January 17th at Blackweir Fields in Cardiff . Alex ran tactically superb and came through strong to take fourth place overall against the best under 13 year aged lads in the country. The announcer made Alex's day as he came into the arena by making an announcement that the late great Roy Fowler would have been very proud to see one of the up coming Moorlands juniors pushing for a medal at such a prestigious event. The next fixture in Antrim Ireland may prove difficult for Alex to attend but it is certain that at the final fixture at Cofton Park Birmingham on Saturday 13th March that Alex will be going all out for a medal.
The coaching team are very proud of Alex's recent performance at a top class meeting and along with his training partner Tom Brookes are names to look out for over the next few years. In terms of the club we could do with some more U13 boys to join them as they would make a formidable team. |
