Message from your new Chairman

18 Dec 2024

Hi Everyone,

It is an honour to have been elected Chair of the Club at the AGM last week and I am greatly looking forward to leading the club over the next 12 months and beyond. Graham Brown has been an excellent chairman over the past 10 years and has achieved a huge amount in his time. As I said at the AGM, if I can achieve half of what Brownie did, I would view my time as Chair as a success. I know that all members will be grateful for his leadership and luckily for us, he isn’t stepping away from the Club so we will still be able to count on his support.

For those of you who don’t know me, I have been a member of the club now for 20 years, playing first game aged 13 for the second XI under Brownie as captain! While I haven’t played much over the last few years, I did manage to don the old whites last summer so hopefully you may see more of me on the pitch next summer!

I look forward to meeting new members up at the club next season while saying hello to familiar faces but in the meantime, if anyone needs to contact me my email is omicklemgwcc@gmail.com or 07791118853. If you have any ideas on the running of the club that you would like me or the Committee to consider, we will always be open to those so please do reach out.

Thank you again for the support in electing me Chair of the Club and I wish you all a very merry Christmas & happy new year. See you at the Club in 2025.

Best wishes.

Ollie
