MESSAGE FROM THE COMMITTEE

MESSAGE FROM THE COMMITTEE

Hi, hope everyone is ok in what are strange days indeed. Just a few notices from discussions we've been having over the past months and a meeting held earlier this evening to make some decisions about 2020/21 season. An e-mail with reports and details will be going out to all clubs in due course, but just to summarise discussions so far:

1. Results from 2019/20 will stand (as at http://www.harrierleague.com/results/2019-20/). Micky has been meeting with our sponsors (Start Fitness) and we're looking to organise a presentation event, within the ever changing government COVID guidance and what will be acceptable to Start Fitness. Will obvioulsy keep you informed on that one.
The AGM which would normally have been held tomorrow (24/07/2020) will hopefully be held towards the end of the year. We will circulate reports (General Secretary's and Financial) direct to clubs in the meantime. To be honest at the moment we don't have anything to discuss regarding fixtures for 20/21 due to the changing guidance coming from government, UKA, and we would also need to consider all landowners that we work with whether local authorities or private landowners.
The plan for 20/21 season, and we'd draw your attention to details for road / trail events released by UKA / EA this week, is to tentatively look towards a restart in the New Year and hopefully get 3 or 4 events in across Feb - March, possibly January as well. Although as far as we are aware the North Easterns are still scheduled for December, a good marker will be whether the Northerns go ahead in January. As you'll be aware the nature of the Harrier League, numbers of people across the day, lapped courses etc means that at present we would be nowhere near meeting the current published requirements for events.

Will keep you all updated as and when anything develops. Keep training; hope to see us back in action in the not too distant future.

All the best

SFNEHL Committee
