Possible Re-Design of the Club Kit

The committee met on 1st September and selected the three best candidates for the “New Design”. These are shown below. A larger version of each design can be seen by clicking on the image.

The committee also decided that voting should be on the basis of one member, one vote and include Junior/ Youth members. The voting process will be outlined in an e-mail which will be sent to all members. Votes will be returned to ClubKitDesign(at)southportcc.co.uk. and will be counted independently by the Treasurer and the Chairman. Voting for members with no internet access will be by paper form.
Voting will close at midnight on Sunday 18th October

At the committee meeting on 12^th May it was agreed that the committee would make a proposal to the members at the AGM in December 2015 that the Club Clothing should either remain as is or that a new design be adopted.

In order for this proposal to make any sense we need to have a proposed “New Design” for the members to consider. Otherwise the members are deciding between what we have now and an un-known design which they may all dislike.

To get to a proposed design we will be doing the following:

1. We announce on the web site and social media/ notice board/ newsletter the intention to have a vote on the adoption of a new design for the kit.
   .
2. We initiate a process allowing members to submit designs for consideration by the Committee to select the best three designs.
   The designs must comply with the “Design Brief” which is in the details below or the downloadable file. Submitted designs become the property of the club.
   .
3. We have a vote by the Senior/ Life and Family members of the club to select the “best” design of the three chosen by the committee. The chosen option becomes the “New Design”.
   .
4. The “New Design” is publicised alongside the existing design prior to the AGM

At the AGM we will then have a vote on the proposal:

The members agree to adopt the “New Design” for Club Clothing.

(Yes means we do and no means we stick with what we have)

We will also have a proposal:

The design of the Club Kit will be reviewed no earlier than the AGM in December 2019.
