What does the committee do?
The organisation and operation of Kingfishers Swimming Club is the responsibility of its committee. As we are a registered charity, the committee are also the trustees.
The committee is charged with organising the efficient running of the club. All committee members are elected to their posts, but offer their time freely as volunteers. Maureen Dickinson (President),Colin Simmons (Chairperson), Vicky Gough (Hon. Secretary ) and Brian DeAlker (Hon. Treasurer) head-up our current committee. The committee comprises of parents of current swimmers, parents of swimmers who have now left and members of the poolside team.
The duties of the committee are wide ranging and encompass all aspects of the clubs administration such as finance, membership, welfare and child protection, pool hire, liaison with external organisations, organisation of club galas, arranging club/swimmer entry into competitions and of course supporting the club’s poolside team.
The committee meets monthly to discuss any issues related to the running of the club. They discuss both long-term issues in a planning capacity as well as smaller more immediate issues that arise during the course of the swimming year.
