INSTONIANS SPORTS CLUBS
Rugby Cricket Hockey
Organisational Structure and Committee Contacts For All Members
 
 

Introduction

Dear Instonian

As the membership of our 3 sports clubs (Cricket, Rugby, Hockey) grows and as we go from strength to strength, it becomes increasing difficult for members to understand who is responsible for what in the club and who they can contact for help or information.

Furthermore, as we operate at shared premises with another entirely separate entity, Cooke RFC, many members are not aware of how the relationship between and assets of both clubs are jointly managed.

This document has been prepared to provide members with:

  1. An explanation of how Instonians Sports Club is structured and managed and how we interact with Cooke; and
  2. Contact details for every Instonian within those various committees and groups who kindly volunteer and help run our clubs

The various committees and groups that make up the management structure of the club can often be seen as closed, secretive groups. For the avoidance of doubt, any member of Instonians is both very welcome and strongly encouraged to get involved in the running of the Club.

Every single member listed in the following pages is an unpaid volunteer, giving their own time to keep the club running for the benefit of all members.

From Mini Rugby, through Youth, all the way up to the senior club and older social members, your thoughts and actions on how we can make a better club for all would be much appreciated.

If you would like to get involved in the running of the club or simply help out in anyway, please don’t hesitate to contact me or any of the Instonian members listed in this document.

Many thanks

Neil

Overview of Instonians at Shaw’s Bridge Sports Complex

Having sold our grounds at Shane Park just off Stockmans Lane, Instonians purchased 50% of the grounds and assets at Shaws Bridge Sports Complex from Cooke RFC, taking up residence there in 1997.

Whilst both clubs exist as separate legal entities, a management organisation was established, Shaws Bridge Sports Association (SBSA), with its own constitution and accounts, to manage Shaws Bridge Sports Complex.

 

 

Shaws Bridge Sports Association

The objectives of SBSA are;

  • the promotion and provision of facilities for sports games and recreation; and
  • the provision and maintenance of club premises and facilities.

 

 

SBSA Structure

The diagram below shows the structure of SBSA.

The 5 Instonians on SBSA along with their contact details are shown in Appendix 1, Table 1.0

The management committee itself consists of 5 representatives from Instonians and 5 representatives from Cooke who meet monthly to discuss the business of the complex.

Every 12 months, the roles of Secretary and Chairperson rotate between the clubs.

The SBSA sub committees chairs also can rotate each year. The arrangement is that both clubs hold two chairs each year between the Council and the 3 sub committees.

Once a year the SBSA AGM is held at the club which any member of either club is entitled to attend to vote on any matters discussed.

SBSA Finance Committee

The Finance Committee is responsible for all financial and legal aspects of running Shaws Bridge Sports complex. This includes managing the money paid by both clubs to SBSA for the up keep of the grounds and buildings. It also includes the preparation of an annual set of accounts for audit by an external organisation.

The Finance Committee consists of 2 representatives from Instonians and 2 representatives from Cooke who meet quarterly.

The 2 Instonians on the Finance Committee along with their contact details are shown in Appendix 1, Table 1.2

 

SBSA House and Bar Committee

The House and Bar Committee is responsible for the upkeep of the club house including catering and bar facilities. This includes managing staff, suppliers, legal and compliance issues (eg recent covid rules) cleaning, maintenance and hygiene, room booking etc.

The House and Bar consists of 2 representatives from Instonians and 2 representatives from Cooke who meet monthly.

The 2 Instonians on the House and Bar Committee along with their contact details are shown in Appendix 1, Table 1.3
