Wellington & District Sports Federation

On Friday 2nd December our Architectural Adviser Steve Major will be meeting with representatives of Taunton Deane Borough Council to review the plans that each party has in respect of the two sites.

An analysis of the two views will be made to see where there is common ground and where thoughts differ and how to move forward.

Following a survey by our architectural adviser Steve Major at Wellington Playing Field Pavilion last Saturday morning 3D plans are to be drawn up and issued.

A meeting with the local authority is also to be held soon (most likely in the W/C 28th November) to give them our draft ideas and see how the Federation’s combined vision matches their brief.

Wellington Recreation Ground will receive the same attention soon.

Our architectural adviser Steve Major will be making a site visit to both Wellington Playing Field and Wellington Recreation Ground on Saturday 19th November at 10.00am to assess further the work required to put stakeholder Clubs facility based wishes into practice.

Anyone who wishes to join Steve then is welcome to.

The Wellington and District Sports Federation and Wellington Action Group for Dogs have formally struck up a working relationship to campaign for responsible dog ownership in Wellington.

The Federation wishes to see the by law relating to the ban on dogs at Wellington Playing Field enforced and effective management of canines practiced on Wellington Recreation Ground, Wellington Rugby Club’s outfield estate and the Dobree Park site and by working with WAG feels that this can be achieved.

An initial meeting has been held this evening and an action plan has been made; notes will be sent out to the Executives of both bodies and this will be the start of the project.

Please contact David Derrick at david230275@googlemail.com for details.

Stakeholder Clubs met at Wellington CC this evening to start the formal process of documenting requirements for the development of the facilities at both Wellington Playing Field and Wellington Recreation Ground.

Our Architectural Adviser Steve Major will be documenting plans and noting requirements before they are submitted to the stakeholder Clubs for final sign off before being submitted to the local authority for their review.

Another meeting at Wellington CC will be held soon; look out for a note on this.

Here is the secretary’s report for 2011.
