It was felt that the National Team Managers=20 would benefit from being appointed for an indefinite term with a clear=20 system of review being set up to monitor their progress against agreed=20 aims. The BUF also pledged to put every effort into obtaining=20 substantial sponsorship for the national teams. Prospective National Team Managers are therefore invited to apply in=20 writing to the BUF Secretary (address as above) for the following posts; =B7 National Open Team Manager(s) =B7 National Women's Team Manager(s) =B7 National Juniors' Team Manager(s) =B7 National Masters' Team Manager(s) Applications should be received by 25th October 1996 (or handed in=20 person to the BUF Secretary on 26th at the National Outdoors). =20 Applications should include a statement on each of the following: =B7 Your full name(s) and contact details (postal, telephone, e-mail etc.) =B7 A brief account of playing and coaching experience (inc. relevant=20 qualifications) =B7 Your aims and objectives for the team and coaching programme =B7 proposed management structure (including likely running costs) =B7 team selection procedure =B7 a proposed training and tournament schedule =B7 support you require from the BUF Once the applications have been collated appointment committees will=20 meet to discuss the applications for each of the management positions=20 which applicants may be invited to address. All committees will=20 consist of the National Director and National Teams Liaison Officer=20 with the final member being the relevant Special Interest Group officer=20 (i.e. Women's, Juniors', Masters' Co-ordinator) . Every effort will be=20 made to make the appointment by 27th October 1996 and all applicants=20 will be notified of the decision for each division in writing as soon=20 as is practicable. In the first instance, all National Team Managers would be expected to=20 serve a minimum term of 2 years with no maximum term unless=20 specifically stated by the appointee. The position will however be=20 subject to an annual review in September of each year. The review=20 format will be drawn up and publicised in the near future. NOTE: A new post will be created with a special interest in 'open'=20 matters (e.g. Open team management, Co-ed issues, growth in the number=20 open team players) who will sit on the appointment committee of the=20 Open Team Management.
