Future Path

Development Officer

M e l S l a d e

Limited development during this period in terms of reaching new audiences.

Yvette Baker Trophy provided focus & vehicle for Junior development

• 2 new juniors representing the club for the first time.

Entry level POC developed with SN support at Basingbourne Park Fleet. Used for 6 week

long Fleet senior school project (Yr 8 & 9), hopefully school will continue to exploit the

asset.

Longer term intent to develop more POCs in conjunction with local councils – specifically

Woking Park and Frimley Lodge.

Ideas and support welcome from all corners!
