Dear Mr Macheke and my brother
I have read your letter with keen interest and I like the history which I
will capture on our Website I am developing ,very good things about your
activities and sacrifices you made for the Renaissance club,However I am
disturbed by major omissions of facts in your letter ,there is an element
of truth in how the club was started and your vision .You also admit
failure on your part to take the Club forward ,which is understandable ,
except that you don not want to vacate the office which you vacated long
time ago and by your own admission ,I am of the view that if you had
commitments which made you not to perform your duties you should have
informed members at that time and request a time out ,which you did
not. This lack of direction and commitment on your part left the club
paralysed and at that point there were some serious discontent by members
to the extent that we could not conclude any discussions or resolve matters
which were raised by members.
TRUTH BE SAID!
Without mentioning names the Club was rescued by a new committee at meeting
in WaterKloof one Sunday evening and a new strategy and direction was
mapped out and implemented .This was the birth of the Renaissance Google
golf club with TUBS as the Chairman ,initially there was resistance from
certain members who obviously thought that we were going to fail ,we
launched the club on (date Tubs if you remember),and to the admission of
many today the new age way of doing things has worked for the club . We
have obviously gone through growing pains in the last 2 years but its very
clear that we have managed to understand how this club works , what is the
vision and objectives .
This club has attracted the best golfers and members with integrity and
reputation
The innovations and suggestions by members over a period of time has shown
how an open platform can make people commit to a cause and succeed .I have
actually lost count of the number of games members have organised using the
platform.
One of the member's among all who picked up the ball was KK and he did the
time table for all official games and organised the venues ,in all or some
of the games KG was the official captain .
We are not acasual club,my understanding of casual is adhoc ,I believe we
are not ,we have official monthly games which results in the Order of
merit winner and a trophy.
We have created a quarterly competition with a Club called five Woods ,of
which we have played five games with a rotating trophy.
We have decided on a Uniform,black,white and red .How is that for Identity?
The issue of the constitution ,the constitution system is old,outdated and
to a certain extend destroys social clubs ,as it does not allow flexibility
,the context of the constitution usually create an element of unnecessary
exclusivity which is not going to suit the club,you need an AGM and all the
irrelevant clauses which do not serve the purpose of the club .So this we
do not need .
How we succeeded in our approach is openness and allowed consensus to rule
,the majority of members have adjusted to this way of doing things to the
extent that I do not remember any player being late at any of our official
games or behaving in an unbecoming manner lately .
To illustrate this point ,I liked and enjoyed how the rules of the order of
merit competition were discussed and resolved ,also how the winner
was determined . All members enjoyed this competition and all members are
upping their game and the rules of the competition are clear except for few
suggestion which have been recently made,but the old rules remain .
Joining fee is also unnecessary as it will serve no purpose , members are
happy to commit and pay for the competition and green fees for the
particular game , I do not want us or the club to be held responsible for
any amount of Money for whatever reason .Money is a sensitive issue .
KK and Venus Africa sponsored the trophies for 1st ,2nd and 3rd positions
last year , the other competitions e.g. Whisky and other are settled after
the game.
I suggest that we put the matter of reestablishing the club to rest ,the
club is functioning perfect and is successful and growing everyday .
MEMBERS KNOW THE LEADERSHIP OF THE CLUB AND THERE IS NO CONFUSION .
LONG LIVE RENAISSANCE GOOGLE GOLF CLUB.
I will rest for now
Elias Likobo Borole
