Well you made it happen despite COVID, sudden isolations, projected thunder and lightning and an unexpected Colombian food shortage. Congratulations to Duffers Allstars for totally owning the tournament and playing some outstanding football. And well done to the Easton Cowgirls for picking up the Plato Lucrecia Lindo (next year we will find a plate honest). It was brilliant that we had teams travelling from Cardiff and Birmingham and also having two new teams taking part was lovely. A big thanks to all the teams who took part. Ambassador Guisell and her colleague Brenda, the Nicaraguan footballer/chef, enjoyed meeting the teams. They presented Roz, Elspeth and Nick with the Embassy’s “Special Friend of Nicaragua and Solidarity Hero” awards for their many years of voluntary work supporting education and Fairtrade projects with Nicaragua. There are some photos up on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/bristolnicaragua/<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.faceb…> and please share the attached with your team-mates so they can print off the certificate and stick it on their fridges. And send us your favourite image from the day and we will upload it. Thanks again for getting your team-mates to the tournament. We know it is not easy. Stay safe, be kind to each other and we will see you for Copa Lucrecia Lindo 2022 (May 22nd). Alix PS. You may have noticed that the US and their media chums are throwing the kitchen sink at Nicaragua in the build up to elections in November. One of our supporters John Perry who lives in Nicaragua has written a good piece about the current situation https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://popularresistance.org/why-us-policy-in-…<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/popularresistance.org/why-us-policy-in-n…> and as we didn’t manage to sing before the final, here is the Nicaraguan single which went viral there called Soberanía (Sovereignty) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGYo_mBS-Dg<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtu…> and is fast becoming the FLSN anthem for the elections. ________________________________ Council services: http://www.bristol.gov.uk/service Latest council news: http://www.bristol.gov.uk/ournews Consultations: http://www.bristol.gov.uk/consult Privacy Notice: https://www.bristol.gov.uk/about-our-website/privacy

Casual League and give us all your money! (Please read me, I'm important)
by Becs Swist 09 Jul '21

09 Jul '21

Hello lovely Cows! Hope you’re all ok despite the dip in weather - silver lining is that the allotment needs less watering! Got a couple of things to share, mostly about money, soz... Casual League next year: the time has come to have the yearly discussion around how we will pick teams for next years’ Casual League, how many teams we’ll have, what is happening with the Casual League etc etc etc Let’s meet (have an EGM): 13/07/2021, 7.30pm. Most likely on Zoom, sadly. I’ll send out a link and reminder just before. If you want to have moaning rights about unfair teams / the picking mechanism / the plan you better be there!!! Training subs: just a wee gentle reminder that subs for training should still be paid over the summer, even though we’re in the park - the funds cover the coaching and give us a bit of a ‘cushion’ for training at City Academy in case we don’t have enough folk turn up to cover the costs (they’re not cheap!), and also get saved up towards our Ethical Fund - more on that below. Subs are £4 or £3 unwaged - pay at training (usually lovely Lizzie Winter collects cash) or pay online (Easton Cowgirls, Sort Code 08 92 99, Account number: 65168055). You can pay per session, pay per fortnight, 4-weekly or in whichever way you like. IMPORTANT: money should never be a barrier to football! If you haven’t got enough money to pay, talk to one of the folk in the committee (me, Zoe, Lizzie, Liz, Fran, Ev, Sensi, Wendy) and we will figure something out. Membership payment: we have a yearly membership fee of £20 (£10 un or low waged). This pays for things like equipment if we need any, the Ethical Fund, and any other random costs we incur that are not pitch hire. We were a bit slack last year collecting this, but it would be good to start again properly. If you want to play in the Casual League next year you will HAVE TO pay (unless money is so tight that you can’’t - again, talk to someone in the committee). Same account details as above, please put your name as a reference. Ethical Fund: we have an Ethical Fund that you can apply to if you’re in need yourself or there’s a specific project that needs funds. Smaller amounts can be agreed by the committee directly, larger requests will be put to the whole club. I’ve attached the agreed parameters of it for info. End of season awards: We would usually have a fairly substantial end of season party with the whole club, but alas, that seems unlikely this year. BUT: that should not stop us from awarding our usual End of Season Awards: The categories are: Player of the Season, Most Improved Player, Best Newcomer, Cowgirls Cowgirl, Cowgirls Wonky Donkey. Ev, Wendy and Sensi are our Social Secretaries, so if anyone would like to help them organise a survey and awards ceremony please give them a shout! That’s the business-stuff out of the way. Two more things: Big Ride for Palestine: a bunch of Cowgirls are cycling from Bristol to London to raise funds and awareness for Palestine. There are still a handful of spots left I think - you can sign up here: https://www.thebigride4palestine.com/big-ride-summer-2021 <https://www.thebigride4palestine.com/big-ride-summer-2021>. If you don’t fancy sore legs but want to support, we have set up a donation page for all of us - so give us all your money: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/easton-cowgirls?utm_source=Twitter&u… <https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/easton-cowgirls?utm_source=Twitter&u…> It’s my birthday on Thursday so if it’s not pissing it down will have a drink or three after training - repeat of last week, really! :) Right, I recon that’s enough info for one email! See you on Thursday hopefully! Moocho cow-love, Becs Chair of the Easton Cowgirls

Ey up, ever needed to check what date a certain tournament you vaguely heard about is? Well, look no further than the ECCSSC diary of events! https://eastoncowfolk.org.uk/diary-of-events/ The website is a good place to go to get the latest news from the club. We also have a full club facebook group where people share events, links to fundraisers, ask for folk to go to tournaments etc <goog_761521969> https://www.facebook.com/groups/2417512852 For the tech savvy amongst us, we also have a google calendar that you can add to your own (if you use it), so all the dates show up automatically in your calendar. Try the link below to add it, and if you struggle with that let me know and I'll find out a better way to add it... https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0?cid=NTE3aGZnZm5jMG1xMWFnZDlibjJnMm… Laterrrs Sal FMS Wood

Fwd: [Peashooter-list] AGM minutes
by Susannah Mallaghan 01 Jul '21

01 Jul '21

For those that missed the AGM last night. Please see the minutes Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef> ________________________________ From: Peashooter-list <peashooter-list-bounces(a)eastoncowfolk.org.uk> on behalf of Easton Cowboys Peashooter <peashooter-list(a)eastoncowfolk.org.uk> Sent: Thursday, July 1, 2021 9:54 am To: peashooter-list(a)eastoncowboys.org.uk; Netball Email; pluff inn Subject: [Peashooter-list] AGM minutes 30/06/21 Cowfolk AGM Apologies: Peace, Henry H, SFW, Jodie, Issey C, Ang, Angleo Present: Linner, Kimmer, Soooooz, Ian Riddle, Colin, Sensi, Lewis, Kev, Eddie, Vic, Bex, Julian, Amy, Rita the dog (hero supporter). Opening rant from Eddie. He loves his mum. Secretary: Linner actually made it this time. Treasurer: Vic still not on the bank account. Chair: Soooooz all over it. No minutes from last meeting as Linner was napping. Actions from last meeting: setting up bank account deets. See above. We need to set up Vic asap. Paypal discussed but they’ll take a fee. Need to update so that we can online bank. Sharing photos. Where? Googledrive? Ongoing saga. Nominations for very important positions of power – none. Soooooz remains chair, Linner remains sec, despite (or, perhaps, because of) being shite. Vic remains treasurer. She will start soon haha. Anti-transphobic – add to constitution? Should we have loads of ‘anti’ in there? Can we call it ‘inclusive’ instead? Eddie to write something for the next meeting. We need to not make phobics the norm. There needs to be no doubt of our standing. Anti is different from not. Eg anti racist is not non racist. Colin made some good points and Eddie CHANGED HIS MIND! New kit – Cowboys meeting next week. Possible new sponsor. Can we do it internally rather than looking for new companies? Can we keep The Plough on our kit without asking them to pay? All down to loyalty. Talks to continue… Kill the Bill Tournament. Political action. Mixed tourney in London. SFW coordinating teams (mixed). 31st July. Same weekend as big Cowgirl cycle. Needs promoting. Teams to guide members to Peashooter. Last AGM: 30th anniversary tourney. Need a timeline. Difficult to organise with Covid. Fundraisers tricky until we know restrictions and international shiz. Perhaps have a local tourney if all else fails. 26th/27th/28th July 2022. Send a message out to full network but with heads up that it may need to stay local. Bex hates us as she’ll be at Womad that weekend. We, however, still love her. Finance: money (£200) given to Danilo (Autonomous). See Peashooter for deets. £250 to Jasp. Money for website. We’re balling it - £8,000 in bank account. We need to consider each £250 as it mounts up quickly. Shall we put a limit on how many £200 we give away (as it doesn’t need to be put to full club vote, decided by Cow-mittee)? Vic to keep her beady eye on it. Can we set up a one-way messaging group? SFW totes defs sorting it, even though not here to agree. Zapatistas: Crowdfunder update. Kev has heard that they’ve had to scale it down for a shit ton of reasons so won’t make it to UK. Hopefully there’ll be another wave where they make it here, just not this summer. CACKK: 9th-11th July. Just a camping trip, not a festie. See Peashooter for deets. Saturday men’s sec needed. Step up! Julian made it to the meeting so is, therefore, exempt. Can we fundraise for Danilo? Would lobbying be more successful? Could Cowgirls’ cycle ride donate? Sponsored stuff rather than parties. Fucking Covid. Up to individuals to do different fundraisers rather than as a club (although we’ll all support). Fitness for women who want to train privately: Cowgirls potentially can do once a month. Linner to chase up details. AOB: Ride for Palestine. Need a volunteer to pick up bikes from London on 1st August, 6pm (drive a van to and from London). 6 bikes. Put out to teams. Get in touch with Vic. Can we coordinate with Kill the Bill tournament? Netham: we will have a Cowfolk chat about it. We’ll have an EGM when the tender docs are out and confirmed – depends what we’d be bidding on. Puma protest 10th July outside Sports Direct in town. Contact Sensi or Soooooz to get more info. Also see Peashooter. Regular socials for Cowboys and Cowgirls to be discussed but also very much encouraged.

by Susannah Mallaghan 30 Jun '21

30 Jun '21

Hi all, Just a reminder the full club AGM is happening tonight at 7pm and it will be held in the garden of Baggator on All Hallows’ Road, Easton. There are some benches but you may want to bring your own chair to guarantee a seat! For anyone new to the cowgirls, this is a great way to find out what’s happening in the wider club and vote on any decisions. It’s informal and you can just sit and listen or participate in discussion :) Thanks, Soooooz (Chair of ECCSSC) Get Outlook for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef>

2 tournaments coming up...
by Sally Wood 24 Jun '21

24 Jun '21

COWFOLK!! Along with Sisters Uncut, the Kill The Bill Coalition and Clapton CFC, I am organising a 16 team 6-a-side football tournament on the 31st July and I have made sure there is a team put aside for the Cowfolk to enter. The tournament is between 10am-4pm at MABLEY GREEN, HACKNEY There will be 16 teams and we are going to mix everyone up and ensure it's all mixed ability and mixed genders. The teams attending will include 4 refugee teams, Clapton will have 2 teams, the Sisters Uncut Kill the Bill Coalition will have 4 teams and hopefully we will have the Zapatistas in the UK in time to enter 2 teams themselves!! On the day we will have a soundsystem, various stalls, talks, food, music and drinks. After we finish at 4pm there will be celebrations on the green! I would love to see as many people there as can make it, to build solidarity, organise and have a great time!! Love to all, Jake xxxxx ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello! Hope you’re all keeping well. As we were unable to do our normal May Day tournament this year, Republica are planning to hold a 5 a side tournament on Saturday August 7th. The plan is to kick off the tournament at midday at the Caribbean Cricket Club and continue the party on there. We will be getting in lots of delicious local ales and will be putting on food for after the tournament. We will be raising money for Andy’s Man’s Club and Leeds Survivor Led Crisis as we usually do at the May Day tournament. Entry will be £5 per person. This will be a mixed tournament with the requirement of at least 3 female players in 7 a side team with all genders on the pitch at all times. For teams who can’t field that many men/women then we will be able to help out with swapping players to make the ratios work. For teams coming from further afield, a few of us at Republica are happy to host and this can be for the Friday too if needs be so let us know in advance if this is what you want! This will all be Covid restrictions permitting but wanted to put it out now so you can save the date. Please let us know as soon as possible if you’re up for attending and rough numbers. We’re really looking forward to finally meeting up again. Any questions then contact Alice or Molly from Republica via email or Facebook messenger: alicehoole(a)hotmail.co.uk (Pam La Brinth on Facebook) We hope to hear from you soon! Republica
