The poor response to the request below suggests that most people who are aiming to play in Germany next year don't mind who selects teams or runs practices. Currently it looks as though it may well be decided by default- If everyones happy with that then fine. If you're not, I suggest you contact me now and offer your services. Rafi >> You may or may not be aware that as yet no decision has been made as to how GB teams are going to be managed next year. There will be a meeting (and voting) at the lunch break of this practice to try to decide how and who will run the GB teams next year. The idea is that as all the people there will have an interest/experience in this, it should be easier to come to a decision. This is not just another meeting about GB- It is likely that the BUF exec will approve whatever decision is reached. There will also be a neutral chair to this discussion that will not be making any proposals or standing up for any posts (er, me). However, as Chris Hughes requested a couple of weeks ago, it does require people to present their ideas on how GB teams should be managed. It also needs people that are interested in being involved with management of any of the GB teams to speak up now. So, if you have any thoughts on how GB should be managed, or want to get involved in the runnning of GB teams, let chris or myself know now. Please could you pass this request to any interested parties not on britdisc. Many thanks Raf (FTM)
