Clubs - Chairman/Club Captain

 

Some clubs have these as separate roles, some clubs have one person fulfilling both. The Club Captain and/or Chairman is the person responsible for ensuring that all elements of the club work together.

If a club have two separate roles, then the Club Captain is effectively the Chairman of Selectors, ensuring the sides are fielded each and ensuring liaison between the captains, whilst the Club Chairman ensures the administrative tasks are all undertaken.

It can be argued that a good chairman does nothing himself, but ensures everyone else is doing everything properly (at least in an ideal world!).

 
bullet

Ensure regular Committee meetings are held and direct the club. All of the club officers need to know what is going on with other aspects of the club.

On a week to week basis, ensure selection progresses according to club policies. Captains should be working to ensure free movement of players up and down the club, and someone needs to overlook this to ensure they are doing so.

bullet

Ensure that Club Discipline is adhered to, and the Club Discipline Code is applied rigorously.
