Annual General Meeting

The A.G.M. of Middlesbrough A C (Mandale) will be held on

Thursday April 1st 2021 at 19:30

(face to face socially distanced at MSV )

The Agenda will be available to view on our club website shortly with any further news.

In addition to the usual constitutional obligation for all members of the committee to stand down at each AGM (but eligible for re-election if they so wish), this year we specifically seek nominations to take on the roles of Chairperson, Secretary, Membership Secretary and Treasurer. We would like to welcome new faces onto the committee to help rebuild the Club’s momentum following the difficult last 12 months.

Nominations should be received no later than 1 week prior to the AGM (i.e. by 25 March)

In the meantime, stay safe and well.

Research Request

/in /by

My name is Georgia Dunn and I am a PhD researcher from Anglia Ruskin University. My research is focused on those who require the use of spectacles, and how these spectacles could impact their running gait. I have found your running club online and was wondering if you had any members that would fit the inclusion criteria and would be willing to fill out my online survey?

The participation would be greatly appreciated for furthering my PhD research as it would further my understanding of running experiences with and without spectacles. If you had a social media page, would it be possible for you to share it on there to your members at all?

Here is the link for the survey:

Thank you in advance and happy new year!

Track hire payments/Lockdown

/in /by

Message from MSV:
Unfortunately the pending lockdown does include all external activities so the last sessions for November will be on Wednesday 4th, with the hope we’ll be back on the 2nd December.
Dear Parents,
Please can you contact your bank as soon as possible and pause your standing order to the club until further notice.
If you pay by a bank transfer every month, again contact the bank and cancel payments for November and December.
We know a few of you pay earlier than the 15th November and your payment may have already gone through. If this is the case, then contact Mike or myself to obtain a refund. treasurer@middlesbroughac.org.uk
Please don’t send any bank details at this stage, just an acknowledgement that you need a refund.
With the very uncertain future for a track return in December, we are asking you not to pay for that month.
If the track is available for part of December and structured sessions can go ahead, we are asking coaches to book and pay for them on a pay as you go casual basis. Your coach will be in contact if and when this happens.
We hope you will appreciate that this uncertainty is beyond our control but that we can look to a brighter new year.
Our very best wishes for you to stay safe and take care
Mike and Jill

NYSD XC ANNOUNCEMENT

/in /by

Hi
Following a meeting of the NYSD officers last night a decision was taken regarding the NYSD XC season for 2020-21. In light of the current situation regarding the recent UKA protocols for Covid 19 for XC and the changing rules and restrictions being issued by the government it was decided that we will NOT be holding any NYSD XC meetings this season.
This decision was not taken lightly, with the health and safety of athletes, marshalls and officials at the forefront of our minds, we feel this is the correct course of action at this time.

Take care and stay safe

Regards
Sid Rudd (NYSD XC sec)

However, guidance for INDOOR activity has been updated. Indoor activity for under 18s can take place with larger numbers in a Covid-secure environment. Indoor training for athletes over the age of 18 is restricted to groups of 6 (1 coach to 5 athletes).
