World… this is England!
![Page 29: English Korfball Association Annual General Meeting 2007-08 June 14 th 2008, Milton Keynes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b087f8b9ab059989360/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
So… What can we do???What can you do???
![Page 30: English Korfball Association Annual General Meeting 2007-08 June 14 th 2008, Milton Keynes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b087f8b9ab059989360/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Development report 2007-08
![Page 31: English Korfball Association Annual General Meeting 2007-08 June 14 th 2008, Milton Keynes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b087f8b9ab059989360/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Year dominated by Development Review - published in January to a mixed response
- ADPs well-received- Competitions Calendar well-received- Competitions structure much more contentious
All 11 ADPs received on time and have been sent out for review.
![Page 32: English Korfball Association Annual General Meeting 2007-08 June 14 th 2008, Milton Keynes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b087f8b9ab059989360/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Key quantitative findings from ADPs:
Areas report approx 2,750 active players
But...
EKA Registrations database has details of 2,374
Is this...over-reporting in ADPs? under-reporting to BKA
database? both?
![Page 33: English Korfball Association Annual General Meeting 2007-08 June 14 th 2008, Milton Keynes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5a4d1b087f8b9ab059989360/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Therefore…
Any regional competition wishing to be considered for entry to the 2010 Champions Trophy requires…
the combined membership of the Areas involved (according to the Areas own ADPs) to be more than 15% of 2,750, ie, 413.

But here’s the good news…
Most Areas (9/11) feel positive about their current state of health, and that of their clubs.
Most Areas (10/11) feel they and their clubs are doing better in 2007-8 than they were in 2006-7.
Most Areas (8/11) broke even or made a surplus last time around.
