Dear Affiliated Members
This is an update from the 3rd Board Meeting, held on Thursday 9 December 2021.
- The Board approved the amendments to the following policies:
- P007 Reserves Policy
- P005.3 RG Technical Handbook 2022
- P005.4 TRA Technical Handbook 2022
- P011 National Judging Accreditation Pathway
- P032 Prize Money Policy
- P008 Membership Policy
- The Board discussed, evaluated and confirmed the sponsorship/fundraising target of $70k of fundraising by the end of March 202 To date a total of $35k has been raised and all Directors are actively looking to attract donors to exceed the target for the year.
- In order to ensure the continuous coverage of executive duties critical to the ongoing operations of Singapore Gymnastics (SG) and its services to the community, the Board of Directors adopted a Business Continuity Plan (BCP) for the temporary appointment of a General Manager in the event of an unplanned or extended absence of the General Manager.
While the Board acknowledges that such an absence is highly improbable and undesirable, due diligence in exercising its governance functions requires that a BCP is in place. It is expected that this plan will ensure continuity in external relationships and staff functioning.
- The Board were briefed on the SG partnership with SportSG Safe Sport Commission which will see affiliated clubs gaining access to the Club Administrator Safe Sport module free of charge and a heavily discounted price for attendees to the Safeguarding Officer course which will once again see SG leading in the area of Child safety in the community.
- An update on the FIG Congress was provided by the SG representatives. The Board discussed the strategic need to develop a plan on how to have Singapore representation at SEA Zone and Asian Gymnastics Union.
- The next Board meeting will be held on the 20 January 2022.
