our committee
Halesowen Athletic and Cycling Club is run by a Management Committee, with representatives from the different sections (athletics, cycling, tennis, weights). The Cycling Section also has its own committee to oversee the running and development of the club.
Our committee is elected at our Annual General Meeting in November each year. Any full member may attend the AGM and vote. The committee usually meets at 8:15 in the clubhouse on the first Wednesday of each month. Any full Cycling Section member can attend committee meetings as an observer. If you want to raise a particular issue, please talk to a committee member first.

Tim Bailey Clothing and kit |
 |
I joined the Cycling section when my children Matt and Nicole started racing 8 years ago and began riding with the youths on the road for extra training to help my running, sadly for me the youths continually get faster. I somehow got involved with the committee and try to help out where I can. I also look after the Club's kit and clothing stock and reorders. |

Arite, my names Matt Bailey and my job on the committee is to make sure the club has input from everyone in the club (not just the OAPs!) anything you're not happy with just let me know! I have rode for Haleowen since the age of 8 and regulary race on both road and track up and down the country. My best result yet was winning the Junior Tour of Ireland last season and i hope to better even that this year. |
