To this end a concerted effort is to be made to improve communications to the 1000 or so coaches that we have in the county by collecting e-mail addresses from as many as possible. We have at present about 800 e-mail addresses in our database. This will enable us to disseminate information and news to all our coaches in a more efficient way. If you are an active ECBCA member you might want to send your e-mail address to Tony Potter in order to be included on our database. Also there would seem to be a strong need for Specialist Coaching Sessions so we hope to fill the void in this area by running some specialist events during this coming winter. Please keep an eye on this website for further news. Tony Potter (Chairperson)
