Incorporated Societies Act - to be held over to next meeting. Covid – WPA will allow unvaccinated players to participate in tournaments but sometimes it could depend on the venue. Club can make up their own rules, some clubs are dependent on the controlling body of their grounds.
Club should be encouraged to wear club shirts at all club events – i.e. JC Trophy, Interclub and Champion of Champion Tournaments. Moved Bruce McDonald – Seconded Graeme Morris Carried Christine Strichen voted against this move. Christine wanted it to be mandatory. This is to be monitored over the coming season. It was pointed out that PNZ encourage that all teams wear the same shirts when competing in National Tournaments. WPA could take the same approach.
