24 Oct '21

Hello again all! This is your friendly reminder that we will be holding a Quarterly General Meeting this coming Wednesday, 27/10/2021 at 7pm at the Easton Community Centre, Kilburn Street, Easton, BS5 6AW (opposite HQ). Please come along if you can make it. If you can’t make it in person and would like to join online I’ll try to make that happen somehow. Please give me a shout. I’ve attached some minutes written by the Lovely Lizzie. I think they are the last ones - I don’t think I have notes from the time we met about the casual league - chances are I have lost them. Sorry! Lizzie won’t make it on Wednesday so I will need a volunteer to take some notes… pretty please! The agenda so far is: 20th Anniversary of the Cowgirls!!! Yes, you read that right. Never mind the Cowfolk turning 30 next year, WE ARE 20 THIS YEAR apparently! And there’s still a couple of months left so we better organise something! 30 Anniversary Tournament, including Date Tapestry Teams to invite Fundraiser on the 29th Jan Calendar Training / newbies / etc Cowgirl Finances (it’s late on the agenda on purpose as Fran can only join us a wee bit later) Any other business Please give me a shout to let me know all of the things that I have forgotten and left of the agenda and I will add them. Looking forward to seeing you all! And can’t wait for a pint at HQ after! Mooocho love, Becs Chair of the Easton Cowgirls

by Becs Swist 14 Oct '21

14 Oct '21

Hello all! We are due (overdue) a Quarterly General Meeting. It will be held on Wednesday, 27/10/2021 IN PERSON (wooohooo!), most likely at the Easton Community Centre (I am waiting on confirmation that they can staff reception that evening). Details to follow but please send me any agenda items or apologies if you can't make it. For those that are new to the club, please come along! It's a great way to learn more about our club and all the other stuff we are involved in besides football. The format is fairly informal, there will be an agenda we follow and everyone gets a chance to input. If there is any feedback or something that you would like discussed, please get in touch. However, input is not mandatory, so if you want to just listen and observe that's fine too! There's a fair bit happening in the club as a whole (we are turning 30 next year!) so it'll be a good time to fill your diary / sign up to help on various things etc etc ect And we'll head across the road to HQ after ;-) Looking forward to seeing you then! Becs Chair of the Easton Cowgirls WFC

Pledgeball - Footballers for Climate Action
by Vic Wakefield-Jarrett 06 Oct '21

06 Oct '21

Pledgeball was set up by Katie from the Misfits (another Bristol women's football team) as a way to mobilise football players and supporters to make positive environmental changes in their lives. They are now asking footballers and football supporters to submit very short videos stating their name, who they support (or play for), and that they support climate action. The short videos will be compiled and shown at the COP26 Climate Conference in Glasgow It would be great if you wanted to take part - and film yourself, in a cowgirl tshirt if you have one. Deadline is 15th October - I'm happy to help film before/after training tomorrow. - Film yourself in landscape - I'm [name], I support/play for [club] and I support climate action - Send your film to media(a)pledgeball.org (or whatsapp me on 07814775291) I've attached a video from them Thanks!

Casual league 2021/22
by Rebecca Swist 22 Aug '21

22 Aug '21

Hello!!! It took a while, but we’re finally there with teams for the casual league for the next season. We will have 3 (!!!) teams, and are aiming to get 1 team into the top division and 2 teams into the middle one - at the end of the day the decision as to where each team will end up will be made by the Casual League so we can only hope that that’s what will happen. Cross your fingers! If you have ended up somewhere you’re not happy with, give me a shout. There are reasons and am happy to explain if needed… (please be kind tho - this was pretty hard work) Those with a * behind their name designated themselves as Flakey. The positions are roughly based on folks choices, but does not mean you have to stay there - ie. we won’t need 3 goalies in team 1 in any one game (gets a bit crowded)… IMPORTANT: you MUST select a captain as soon as humanly possible, and tell me who that is - I’ll send them a form and they then need to register the team with the casual league. This absolutely has to happen by the 31/08!!! No registration - no team. You have just over a week... If you told me that you want to play but are not on the list please give me a shout. Team 1 (aiming for mid division) Goal / Other Gibbo* Wendle* Maria Defence / Mid Razz* Holly Eyebrows Rona Aline* Nora Issy (Portuguese) Emily* Hannah Soooooz Front Cris* Dana Team 2 (aiming for mid division) Goal Sensi Defence / Mid Jo* Flo Cara SFW* Becs Vic Ness Miriam* Ange* Isy (original) Front Vicky* Annie / Doc* Wancharee Team 3 (aiming for top division) Goal Peta Defence / Mid Nat S* Nat F Maeve Lizzie Marcella Mari Front Ev* Issey (blond) Bridie Harry Bear T

Fwd: Harun Abu Aram is re-learning to breath on is own - let's help him make further progress

Have you and the Cowgirls seen this?

For the first time in seven months he was out in the hospital courtyard, breathing independently of his ventilating machine, seated in a wheelchair and seeing things other than the ceiling of his hospital room. For the first time since January 1st, 2021, that cursed day when he was shot in the neck by an Israeli soldier and became paralyzed in all four limbs, Haroun smiled at himself and at the world. Haroun was hospitalized for five months in Hebron’s Al Ahli Hospital ICU. Once it became clear that Haroun has chosen to live, we've searched for funding to transfer him to a rehabilitation hospital in Israel, as such a facility is nowhere to be found in the West Bank. Israel has not accepted any accountability for his case, not even humanitarian responsibility. The Palestinian Authority, too, has shut its ears. We turned to the whole world, activated connections, turned tables – all in vain. While we've wasted precious time trying to secure a financial obligation for his hospitalization, Haroun’s condition worsened by the day. He laid motionless and developed severe life-threatening bedsores. The situation seemed hopeless. That was the moment we've decided to take responsibility for the funding and transfer him, at all costs, to a Rehabilitation Hospital in Israel. It was a gamble – and we won. People from Israel and abroad – friends, friends of friends, people we didn't even know – responded to our humane appeal and donated, each according to his capacity. Every cent carried so much understanding, compassion and goodwill. The donations have covered the cost of a single month, 91,000 NIS with which Haroun was transferred to the Respiratory Rehabilitation Division at Reut Hospital on May 26th, in critical condition. Two weeks later we received estimates from the medical team: 2 to 3 months’ hospitalization will be needed in order to restore Haroun’s independent breathing, hoping that the bedsores too would heal. We took another gamble, and once more people from all over the world responded, many of them for the second time. A month later we repeated our call. And succeeded again. Barely. Haroun, his family, the medical team, and we – his supporters – are on a harsh journey. Haroun’s physical state has been unstable. He is ready to be weaned from the respiratory machine, but the bedsores are not responding to the healing efforts and have been poisoning his blood. His body reacts with a relentless fever that hinders his progress and weakens his spirit. Recently, the fever has receded and apparently the bedsores are beginning to respond to the treatment. On August 1st, as Haroun began his third month at Reut, we held another meeting with the medical team' and learned two things: The good news – Haroun’s breathing and mood have improved; The harsh news – one more month (the fourth!) is needed in order to curb the effects of his bedsores. Coming out of the meeting, we were barely breathing. How are we going to raise another 91,000 NIS? How can we appeal for the fourth time to the same people who have already donated once, twice and even three times? I was reminded of Bertolt Brecht’s lines: Like one who brings an important letter to the counter after office hours: the counter is already closed. Like one who seeks to warn the city of an impending flood, but speaks another language. They do not understand him. Like a beggar who knocks for the fifth time at the door where he has four times been given something: the fifth time he is hungry. Like one whose blood flows from a wound and who awaits the doctor: his blood goes on flowing. So do we come forward and report that evil has been done us. For a week now, we have been riding a ceaseless mental roller-coaster. But when we saw Haroun sitting on a wheelchair in the hospital courtyard and smiling, we knew we need to gamble once more.
