Fw: [Peashooter-list] AGM minutes and EGM details

by Sensi Mclean

Important information below please read.... ALL welcome. ________________________________ From: Peashooter-list <peashooter-list-bounces(a)eastoncowfolk.org.uk> on behalf of Easton Cowfolk Peashooter <peashooter-list(a)eastoncowfolk.org.uk> Sent: 26 June 2023 12:31 To: peashooter-list(a)eastoncowfolk.org.uk <peashooter-list(a)eastoncowfolk.org.uk>; Netball Email <easton-cowgirls-netball(a)googlegroups.com>; pluff inn <pluffinn(a)gmail.com> Subject: [Peashooter-list] AGM minutes and EGM details Sorry for the delay getting these out - let's hope the next sec is a bit more on it! The meeting wasn't quorate which was a pain in the arse because we now have to have an EGM (deets in red below) so PLEASE make sure your sector is represented - don't leave it to other people etc etc nag nag. We also need new committee members as detailed below so please have a think and step up if you can. The main role of the Chair is to organise and Chair 2 meetings per year, the AGM and BGM. Making sure the meetings are quorate (2 persons for each section of club, except CACKK that only requires 1) and making sure everyone at the meeting is included and gets a chance to speak / respond to discussion topics. There are other requests and questions raised throughout the year, these are normally delegated to each section of the club. If a full club decision is required this is discussed as a committee (normally via WhatsApp) and any major decisions are taken to the AGM/BGM or in exception circumstances an Emergency meeting. The responsibilities do escalate significantly when we are planning a tournament, however this will not happen in the next two years. I’m happy to answer any questions and support the new chair. Secretarial role: Pretty darned simple (hence Linners managing it for a few years. I managed to only nap through one meeting! Boom!). Forward emails to the appropriate Cowfolk members – this should be very rare as the inquiries are being sent direct soon. Take and distribute meeting minutes. Easy peasy. You’ll just need access to Peashooter distro list to do this. And not nap through aforementioned meetings. Applaud the treasurer and chair who both have a much more demanding role. EGM is Monday 10th July at 6.45pm. We aim for it to be 20 minutes long; no more than half an hour at most. Option of online attendance.

Copa Luraecia

by Sensi Mclean

The Cowgirls have voted not to participate in Copa Lucreacia it is inconsistent with our foundational principles, including support for women’s rights, for LGBTQ rights and for political rights more broadly. 1. The Ortega regime in power has been condemned by the UN, various human rights organisations (including some that are not close to the US) for extensive human rights violations and prosecution of political opponents, including feminist/women’s organisations, student organisations and old Sandinistas that have denounced the Ortega regime. Left wing, progressive governments in the region – Chile, Argentina - have also condemned the Ortega regime. 2.On women’s rights, Ortega has waged a war against feminists and outlawed even therapeutic abortion in a bid to buy the support of the Catholic church. Whether some of these feminist groups are bourgeoisies or not is irrelevant, since the attack on reproductive rights mostly affects poor women who cannot afford to go abroad and are forced into dangerous illegal abortions. 3. The Copa Lucrecia organisers have argued in response to previous Cowgirls questions that the tournament raises funds for Nicaraguan organisations and we shouldn’t boycott it. But the Nicaraguan government has repeatedly used photos from the tournament to argue that UK progressive circles continue to support it, so even if we do not take photos with the Nicaraguan ambassador (our compromise last year), we can end up participating in the legitimation of an authoritarian conservative regime simply by participating. We have agreed that our participation in Copa Lucrecia is inconsistent with Cowgirls/Cowboys stance on Palestine or recently, on Qatar. We can't ignore the harsh realities of an authoritarian conservative regime or hope that our participation will not be instrumentalised. Thank you, Dana, for support with the above. THIS MEANS WE ARE NOT ATTENDING THE Copa Luraecia Tournament on the 21st of May. Social secretaries are working hard on an alternative. Information will be shared on what the alternative is REAL soon. Regards Cow-mitee

Statement about incident at training on 04/05/23

by Hannah Popham

Dear Cowgirls, On 4/5/23 there was an incident at training. Some committee members were present, and immediately informed the other committee members of the nature of the incident. For the sake of transparency, the committee wanted to let you know how the incident was managed. We quickly agreed to have an emergency committee meeting on 8/5/23. There was some debate about whether this incident should be managed solely by the two co-chairs, or by the whole committee. Ultimately, it was decided that diversity of thought from the whole committee would be helpful. Before the meeting, the committee asked for written accounts of the incident from the main parties involved, and from people considered to be neutral witnesses. A number of people also provided a statement of their own volition. These were read by the committee before the meeting, in addition to the club constitution and the FA coaches code of conduct. It was clear that there were many different perspectives to what happened. The committee met for 90 minutes on 8/5/23. Present were: Hannah (co-chair), Sensi (co-chair), Peta (vice chair), Lizzie (secretary), Isy (treasurer), Ev (social sec), Rona (social sec), Jo (social sec). We discussed that while many people were involved in the incident, two were close to a physical altercation, and therefore this was the main focus of the meeting. We tried our utmost to keep every single persons’ wellbeing at the heart of the conversation, but also acknowledged that we as a committee have a duty of care to ensure that training is a safe space for everyone, and therefore felt it was important to treat this incident as a serious matter. After much discussion, the committee agreed that the two main parties would be asked to take a 2 week “cooling off period” in which they would not attend training or games. In that period, they would have the opportunity to discuss the incident with the co-chairs, and also were given a contact within the committee to reach out to for support. Additionally, we recommended that both parties meet to clear the air if they were comfortable to do so. The committee agree unanimously that the conduct on 4/5/23 was unacceptable, and not within the ethos of our club. However, it became clear that there had been some brewing tensions that fed into this incident. This has highlighted the need for a more clear method for members to communicate concerns and feedback with the committee, and a more thorough process for feedback and concerns to be addressed. This will be discussed at the upcoming QGM. The Committee.
