1 Apologies for Absence
There were no apologies for absence.
Dave Green expressed unreservedly his apologies for being absent from the last two meetings. This apology was accepted and most appreciated.
2 Minutes of the last Meeting
The Minutes were agreed and signed by JD.
2 Delegate
JD explained that this meeting had been called for only one agenda item to be discussed. She said that after much soul-searching over recent weeks she would be resigning as FAB (Almeriense) delegate and would be advising John Muldoon and Snr, Nieto by email tomorrow.
The committee agreed that JD had done more for bowling than anyone and would be extremely difficult to replace for which thanks and appreciation were recorded.
JD said the Licence fees to date have been paid in and gave DJ receipts.
We have 20 Almeria regional and 14 Mazarron nationals, from Indalo 8 nationals and 42 regional licenses and from Mojacar 4 regional.
Cabrera since have a further 8 regional and 20 national licences but JD explained that when this meeting had been called there were only 2 from Cabrera. We have worked hard to get back a healthy bank balance and have a sponsor for all competitions this year. We have tried to get the Grass Green Fours off the ground and to help boost entries for the 3.2.1 given free entry. The lack of entries to the Rinks competition was extremely disappointing.
Even though everyone had been kept up to date with all information and emails JD had received there was still confusion by some as to whether they wanted to affiliate with a regional or national licence.
Questioning who would be chairing future meetings JD said she would be contactable but would leave that decision to the officers of the committee.
JD said her letter of resignation would be sent out tomorrow.
The meeting closed at 1800 hrs.

EJQ Services are sponsoring all FAB competitions this year, except the Mixed Triples which is sponsored by Liberty Seguros.

From the Coaching course the Bronze award has been achieved by Chris Ewer, Rod Band and Trevor Young.
Several bowlers from France who come to Almeria for the winter took these courses as there is no training available in France. They will be honorary members and full members of CAUMA and can be called on when required.
CAUMA shirts will be available on 21st March.
Changes to the Rule Book have been sent out to everyone. Among other things it was noted that the foot-faulting rule has been relaxed.
Any Other Business
RuC said Jan Dando had done an outstanding job as the F.A.B. Delegate, she had been extremely conscientious, put in a huge amount of work and given so much of here personal time. It was a great loss to the federation. This was acknowledged by everyone and in appreciated formally recorded.
SM explained the Singles and & Pairs competitions in November have been re-scheduled to make it easier to provide Markers and Umpires and for everyone to be aware of these changes on the updated Combined Calendar. A meeting for Calendar Secretaries to be arranged.
ACTION SM
Regarding the Andalucian Championships, DH asked if we had any news on accommodation from Malaga. SM said she had asked but still waiting to hear from them as soon as any information is received this will be circulated to the committee.
ACTION SM
DH suggested that because there are so few going to the Spanish Nationals this year and dates are available in the calendar could we hold an alternative competition between our regional clubs. It was agreed a good idea and suggested that a competition with teams of 4 playing a threes discipline would make it easier for each team to be able to play on all surfaces. The competition would be self sufficient paying out green fees and prize money according to entry money. Most convenient days between 9th and 24th May to be identified in the calendar. This to go back to club committees for their approval. FAB reps to confirm as soon as possible.
ACTION Reps, JM, SM, RuC
