It’s nearly always a good idea to make friends. I guess in fancy speak we develop partnerships. Well I have decided that if the club thing is ever going to get off the ground I need friends both inside the club (by definition I can’t really have a club just for me!) and outside of the club.
I have made friends with the local athletics/running club, the BADYS (Blackwell and District Young Striders), who are a development club for 8-13 year olds and with Bolsover & District Cycling Club. Still trying to find a friend (or should that be phone a friend!) in swimming but I am sure it will come just as soon as they have finished rebuilding the local swimming pool and the clubs return out of their two year exile to Ripley.
What experiences have you had in forming alliances with other clubs - has it helped, hindered? Do you think you should but haven’t yet bothered? It takes valuable time after all. I appreciate as my sport has three individual disciplines it is kinda appropriate for me to look to specialist clubs for advice, swap of members, somewhere to pass people who decide they want to concentrate on one discipline.
