Sensory Boards
#88
I'm interested in learning how to use them but I will have to learn how to use the digital clocks first.

It's a pity Prestwick isn't until May next year, as the venue is booked and available for 24 hours each day and we could organise some sort of training before play started on the Friday or after the playing sessions on the Saturday or Sunday. Though after Saturday play could interfere with some Saturday night entertainment plans we may have.

I'd be happy to organise a training event before that, down here in deepest, darkest Ayrshire.

Perhaps we could combine it with an Ayrshire v East Kilbride match or I could see if I can line up 8 of the top and/or most promising Juniors to take on 8 of the top and/or most promising adults. The venue could be the Dunlop village hall in Ayrshire, if it's available. (Google it! =) ) Other alternative venues could be found, such as Prestwick Airport or the Park Hotel in Kilmarnock. Venue hire costs would not be an issue.

Anyone wishing to listen to Andy talk tech could come along. As David Deary has been quite quiet on the notice board I will volunteer both him and his brother as pupils and I'll throw Robin Moore's hat in the ring also. Tongue

I'd be happy to bring this up, ender AOCB, at the Ayrshire AGM on the 22nd of this month, if that helps.
