1. Minutes of the last meeting Agreed as a true record

2. Matters arising

Item 3.c (Nov minutes) Horspath fined by OFA and warned as to future conduct.

Item 9.e Appeal upheld by OFA on the basis of when selection for the Rep team actually takes place.

Player was transferred to Crowmarsh on 4th October and although Rep. trials were held prior to this Rep. Manager stated that players were not informed until after 4th October and so rule did not apply as selection took place after the transfer.

The Committee felt that they had applied both the spirit and intent of rule 26, therefore it was unanimously agreed that no apologies to either the player involved or his parents would be offered.
