**Panserborn** · 07-08-2009, 01:35

Hi all,

Just a note to say that some might not like their names being mentioned on a public forum. If anyone wants post edited to remove names then just PM me.

For my tupence, I think the officers in the current positions are doing as good a job as they can. If they would like to continue in their posts (as I hope they do) then they should be supported. It takes time to impliment new ideas into an organisation and this commettee have only had a year, thats not enough time to get things rolling IMO. And to be fair, in this year we have seen success as an organisation, not least of all the appointment of one of the main personalities of world archery as our national coach. There have been some legitimate issues raised concerning the running of the organisation, but once raised they were taken on.

Just my opinion

anonymity · 12-08-2009, 16:52

Personally I think it should be mentioned that some of the better things that have happened in the last year (such as organising a new rule book, the first mention of defibulators and other things like that) has been thanks to the previous exec and that the current one are reaping the rewards of what was sown over the past few years.

While the new exec has put forward ideas that are of merit too they are slow to take up some of the more inconvenient changes and have bent/broken their own rules.

As you can imagine I'd rather not divulge the particulars of these on a public forum.

Regards

An IAAA Archer

have heared the dfibulators are locked in sports hq not much there if someone has a heart attack buying them is good but not having them out is crimnal

ruiner · 13-08-2009, 07:52

The judges bring one each with them to competitions or large events. One is in sports hq as a lot of IAAA meetings are held there and the sports hq doesn't have it's own one

think that was the plan however i was told by a judge at a recent comp(when i was looking for a first aid kit mine was in the car a fair bit away) that they were not out yet

Scottish Rob · 14-08-2009, 15:27

As those of you who are members of the Association will know there is a procedure for proposing new members to the executive; you will have received notification of this through the post by now.

It is great to have a wish list for the next committee but I would suggest that the more sensible course of action would be to follow the wise example of Philmire and ask members first if they are willing to take on positions of responsibility. Hopefully, many on the lists so far suggested might offer their services to the Association; although I do understand that it is virtually impossible to be a competitive archer and an active committee member at the same time. There are just not enough hours in the day!

I , by the way, am Robert Clarke, the current secretary of the Association, if any of you were in doubt, and I don’t feel it necessary to create an anonymous pseudonym to hide behind to discuss the current executive.

Although this moves away from the original purpose of this thread I would like to take the opportunity to clarify the position on defibrillators.

As Ruiner rightly observes two were bought to be carried by the judges to competitions and one to stay in Sports HQ for use at meetings, for National Training and on Archery Leaders Courses. Judge Tony carries one, ( and a full medical kit) with him in his van and Judge Gerry has still to be issued with/collect his from the stores; although he may have done so already as he has full access to it. By the way, the plans to provide large scale training in the use of defibrillators to all archers as well as first aid training are one of the areas where more rapid progress would have been hoped for.

I would like to thank Panserborn for his words of encouragement but go on to address some of the comments made by Anonymity.

The current executive obviously has built on the hard work of the previous one and being/having been a member of both I am in a position to see this clearly. A lot of progress has been made this year such as the purchase of the defibrillators, to which Anonymity refers, which were first discussed at the executive meeting of the 12th January this year by our current medical officer. On the 13th of March this year, the current executive approved their purchase after receiving three different quotes and the membership were informed of the current executive’s decision in the March 2009 Newsletter.

At the delegate meeting on the 20th July 2008 an urgent review of the rule book was proposed and a subcommittee put in place. It is worth noting that three of the five members of this committee, (including Ruiner), went on to take office in the current executive and that the chairman of this subcommittee was none other than our current President. The rule book was redrafted and brought, proposal by proposal, to the delegates for approval first at the meeting in Pobalscoil Neasain on the 14th February this year. Those five members worked particularly hard to complete the task and I thank them for their perseverance on behalf of all members of the Association.

At the same July 2008 delegate meeting in Carlow a redrafting of the Memorandum and Articles of Association was proposed and this is now complete and up for adoption, hopefully, at the AGM of the 19th September. This work has been done solely during the term of office of the current executive.

It is worth note that our current president was also actively involved in negotiations to secure a National Archery Range. These discussions are still ongoing.

The current Vice President of the Association, as you well know, the President of the previous executive committee, continues his hard work for the Association both through his duties on the committee and as head of coach education.

There are numerous other areas where the current committee, and I extend that beyond the executive on purpose, have made significant contributions to target and field archery in Ireland this year. Some of you may be aware, for example, that next summer there are plans to hold the first NIAS/IAAA joint All Ireland Target Archery Championships. Six new Archery clubs have affiliated to the Association this year. The Women in Sports Programme has been extended. Irish Record status shoots have been reviewed. Selection criteria for International events have been reviewed and a League System for clubs and archers has been proposed, to name a few of these. A committee that has worked for members, Renegade_Archer. This work has been done without reward by members of the committees and subcommittees in their free time on behalf of Irish Archery. Again, I would like to thank these individuals for their effort on behalf of all Irish archers.

Panserborn mentions the appointment of our National Coach; none other than the World reknown Vittorio Frangilli. This man has worked successfully with our recurve archers to send them to competitions in Italy, America, Scotland and Korea and has plans to develop the National Compound Squad this year as well.

One aspect of the current executive that Anonymity is no doubt aware of after the fiasco at the delegate meeting in Galway where several misleading or even untrue statements were made and later retracted at an open meeting of the full committee a week later, is that transparency in actions is one of the issues that the current executive are working hard to improve upon.

I would urge Anonymity to specify the ‘more inconvenient changes’ and state the cases of ‘bent/broken’ rules to which this anonymous person eludes to in writing and address it for my attention, or the attention of the President, at the registered office of the Association so that these issues can be put on the agenda for discussion at the next meeting of the full committee. Obviously such serious issues would impinge on the smooth running and integrity of the executive and should not remain unaddressed.

Finally, as all members who have read their AGM notification letter will be aware, the executive is actively seeking the opinion of the membership and also asking for assistance from members who are prepared to volunteer their time and expertise to further the objects of the Association. If, on reading this post, you feel you are in a position to offer assistance, the current executive, and I would suggest the one to follow the AGM, would be very happy to hear from you. Please feel free to contact us.

It is very easy to find fault, but actually attempting to improve on that fault and move forward requires hard work and commitment.
