Minutes from last meeting: All present read the previous meetings minutes, there were no matters arising from the minutes.  Joan Hughes Proposed and Muriel Wills seconded that the minutes are true and correct.

Treasurers report: Nothing to report further than to add £43 to the Marie Curie account.

Men's and women's fixture Secretaries counted up all the registration lists received up until today.  
There are only 25 out of 66 teams, 12 men's and 13 ladies. The lists were supposed to be handed in by today, 12th September. 
Games are starting this week and many teams are not registered.  
A message needs to go into the Penarth Times requesting all teams that aren't registered to put copies in the box or hand them to the any of the Committee members immediately.
 All team members are needed to construct the awards table.

Liz has been given 3 nominations so far:
Ann Young, Joan Hughes and Val Pool. 
Other people were put forward: Evelyn Wainscott, Denise Letts, Muriel Wills and Cath Parfitt.
All present raised their hands to vote all the above onto the Management Committee.

AOB:
Liz proposed that we do Holme Towers Presentations at the next meeting in October.
All present were happy for this to go ahead.  Ann proposed that we give £2,000 to Holme Towers, which is made up of £1325 from The Bash and the rest will be made up from the skittles main account.  Everyone was still happy for this to go ahead. 
Liz asked Sue to contact Holme Towers to send someone along to the meeting to collect the cheque.  Also to write to the Penarth Times notifying that this presentation will be taking place and for as many people as possible to attend the next meeting.  Liz asked if one of the ladies could provide the contact at Holme Towers and will pass the name to Sue. 
Liz advised that it has been put forward to get Ann and thank you present and everyone to sign the card.  Everyone agreed that this was a good idea; it was decided to spend £25 on a bouquet of flowers and to get a card.  It was agreed to take the money from the skittles main account. 
Chris agreed to take this on and bring to the presentation night, which would be good for he to be presented at the Holme Towers presentation as this was Ann’s ‘baby’!
Graham Marsh asked if Graham Ashton is still president of the skittle league, Liz confirmed that he is.

The next meeting will take place on the 10th October - Everyone was asked to spread the word for as many people as possible to come to the next meeting to support the presentation.
