Hello!
Attached are the minutes of the EGM on Monday. Please give me a shout if there’s anything shockingly inaccurate.
Hopefully see you in the park later!!! (although I still can’t play… boohoo!)
Much cow love,
Becs
Hey all, someone has raised the question on FB and I wonder if there’s anything we can do as a club to show solidarity with Katungua, the lad who was racially attacked leaving southmead. There’s a link to a fundraising page to raise money to aid his recovery. I thought maybe we could take a solidarity pic at training tonight and share it asking people to donate. Thoughts?
He is a footballer and another club is raising funds for him so any other thoughts welcome.
Without HQ our fundraising opportunities are fairly limited at present

>From Tom M - Open day mixed football tournament 22 August.
We are looking to have an in house football tornament with mixed teams to have a club get together. We like to pool players into groups of strikers, midfielders, defenders and keepers. Then take your pick from each group to form a team. It will be a great way to catch up and get to know other members of the club. In the first instance who is interested in taking part?

A reminder we are zooming tonight at 8pm to discuss how we dish up the casual league teams.
A rough agenda -
Team selection - currently players are split by position and then randomly put into teams - should we with continue this method?
Should teams remain the same for more than one season?
Over 35’s league - we have been talking behind the scenes about trying to start up an over 35’s league to run separately from the casual league. Anyone interested in helping with this?

Stop the War on Yemen - Stop Arming Saudi Arabia
The government's decision at the start of July to resume arm sales to Saudi Arabia is nothing short of horrifying. Against all the evidence of war crimes by the Saudi-led coalition, a Court of Appeal ruling and a global pandemic which is taking hold in Yemen, the Tories see fit to continue allowing the sales of billions of pounds worth of arms to one of the most autocratic regimes on earth. The decision completely and utterly exposes the hypocrisy at the heart of Britain's foreign policy.

Hutchings, a saxophonist and bandleader (Sons of Kemet, The Comet is Coming and Shabaka & the Ancestors), has created a new composition in response to the devastating events which will be performed exclusively live across Stop the War’s social media platforms. You do not want to miss this unique performance commemorating one of humanity’s darkest moments.

Hi all,
We will be having an emergency general meeting via zoom on Monday 27th July at 8pm. This is a cowgirls football meeting only to discuss how we select casual league teams for this season.
In the past we have considered allowing teams to remain the same for 2 seasons.
Other players have suggested a self selecting development team.
We can of course just stick to the way we have always done it which is randomly.
If you have any ideas about how you think the teams should be selected please feel to share them prior to the meeting so people can reflect.
Only those at the meeting will be able to vote but I can share ideas from those unable to attend.
Thanks all, Soooooz

*Training News* thank you to everyone that filled in the survey. We are busy trying to sort everyone out into either Wednesday or Thursday groups. I will finalise this tonight after kids are in bed and training can commence tomorrow if peeps are keen. If you end up in the Wednesday group you will be added to a WhatsApp’s group tonight to check we have enough people able to play tomorrow. Please look out for this and respond. If you are in Thursday group I will message you tomorrow.
I should add groups are around 12-14...so only 10 can play each week and we will rotate so you only miss training every 4-5 weeks
