Why are GB practices now on Saturdays? >Is this a permanent thing? >Surly more people can get to the Sunday Practices.. > >Hannah Hannah The 'pre-annoucement' about this coming Saturday does not say, nor suggest, that ALL GB PRACTICES ARE NOW ON SATURDAYS. There can be problems booking fields on Sundays because it is popular for ALL the Sunday league sports (as is the case with booking the MK venue for the Sunday 14 November) ... however, that is not to say that there will NEVER be GB sessions on Sundays. The GB management team (once it officially comes into being!) will be looking into all such issues and we will also be looking for willing volunteers to book and publicise suitable venues - do you know of any that we (you) can book for Sundays? When Chris Hughes earmarked the monthly GB sessions in the diary he pointed out that they would typically be ONE DAY, rather than TWO DAY events. We will add your comments to the melting pot of ideas and make future annoucements and requests for help and support in a more timely manner. I cannot apologise enough for the delay in the annoucement for this coming weekend's practice, but as I said above the 5+1 management team is not yet formally in place - some of the delay is a result of unavoidable BUF red tape, but most is because a Women's Division Manager has not yet been appointed. Illness, paid work and communications problems have also played their part. Hope to see (some of you) on Saturday - thanks again for your patience.
