At our final AGM the decision was taken to wind up the club.
Club membership had been in decline for a number of years, but the Covid lockdown was the final straw. After the return to normality, we discovered that our venue was lost, and a significant number of members would not return.
It has proved impossible to secure a new location, in the Giffnock area, at an economic price.
For the last two seasons Cathcart have allowed Giffnock to play at their premises, and the club wishes to thank them for their generosity.
With little prospect of finding a new location, and further loss of members, the club was deemed non-viable.
As part of the disbursement of club assets it was decided to donate £500 to the Olympiad Go Fund Me. This money has now been donated. It is credited to me, but is in fact from Giffnock and Clarkston funds.
