Apparent discontent with SOME members of CI board with TDU
Posted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 8:16 pm
Most people who will see this post are well aware of the recent events in CI.
From reading post here on IWW and on Boards.ie combined with speaking to some of the current board members (Chairs of their respective technical committees) combined with some reading between the lines I am fairly certain there is massive friction between SOME members of CI's board and the position the TDU hold on the board and remit of the TDI.
Before I go further I would like to clarify that I do not mean there entire board of CI and I don not necessarily mean the members of CI board I have spoken with.
Out of the many issues that lead to the former presidents resignation it would appear to me that there are some people who are not happy with the fact the TDU sit on CI's board and are massively un happy with the TDU having any say in the development & deployment of the new Coaching Syllabus.
To clarify for those who might not be aware there is a difference between the current L1- L5 instructor system and the Coaching Syllabus for the technical disciplines like Freestyle / Sprint etc.
I am lead to believe that this feeling of discontent is so strong that among other reasons this is one reason why some members of the board block voted against the former president on the night he stepped down. Think of it as an act of civil disobedience.
Now I do think there is scope for a healthy debate in what the TDU's / technical committees role should be in the development and roll out of the Coaching Syllabus should be.
This is just speculation by me but I would love to here from anyone who has any views on this what so ever.
* Before any potential upset of CI board members please note I said SOME not all board members. Also to save you google for my contact details you can get me Adrian Shanahan via email [email protected] or call me 087 3 545 042
