New Club Premises
With regard to the possibility of the Leicester City Challenge Project assisting in the obtaining of new club premises, we have been asked for a specification of the premises we will require. This will be provided ASAP.
Overseas Associate Membership (0AM)
The possibility of AOM is being investigated. The idea is that the AOM card is sponsored by certain commercial concerns, e.g. an hotel. When the AOM comes to this country and shows his card he gets a discount. Leicester RS gets a percentage. This to boost Club financial income. Marcia Brimson , RSGB Marketing Manager, has been told of our intentions..
