CHAIRMAN’S REPORTDear Members,Thank you for the opportunity to present my first <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> as Chairman.I am very pleased to report that 2010/2011 has been an excellent financial year, with a Trading Profitof $148,352 with a further figure of some $300,000 of debt reduction. This has been achieved withthe help of a professional and dedicated CEO in Mr Trevor Haynes, a committed Board of Directorsand devoted Staff, who have all worked as a team for the betterment of our club.Key Trading Areas:Poker Machine Revenue was up by $235,715 on 2009/10.Unfortunately Bar Trading was down by $77,438 on 2009/10. Some of this downturn could beattributed to the number of wet days, with no bowls. Treasurer John Russ has further elaborated inhis report.Star Buffet and the new Garnish Café continue to provide good service and fine cuisine. I ask allmembers to support each of these catering offerings.<strong>The</strong> <strong>Greens</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Entrance</strong> continues to support many charities and other sporting clubs. <strong>The</strong>benefits afforded to these organisations including local surf clubs, junior football and the Bateau BayMen’s shed far exceed the clubs liability under the State Government community development andexpenditure scheme.Your Board is committed to undertake a long overdue facelift of the ground floor areas of the club,and hope to commence works prior to the end of the year.I wish to sincerely thank our CEO Mr Trevor Haynes, Vice Chairman Mick Terelinck, Treasurer JohnRuss, Directors Sue Gemmell, Ray Sonter, Clarrie Fitzgerald and Brett Williams for their continuedsupport.Thanks also to Lyn and Sue in Admin for keeping our club on the straight and narrow. To all theSupervisors and bar staff, I believe you are “simply the best”.Thanks also go to Bowls Manager Tony Scott, Past Ladies Club President Pat Thornton, incomingLadies President Pam Russ and each of your Committees, Volunteers and Bowlers for supportingour Club.Congratulations to all Club and District winners; both Men and Women and to all bowlers whoentered these events.Thanks to our Greenkeepers Graham, Greg and Josh - for providing our bowlers and visitors withtop class bowling greens.A special thanks to our Club Patrons Mrs. Ilma Watkins, Mr. Jack Grant and Mr. Reg Smith for themany years of dedication to your Club.4

TREASURER’S REPORTIt is with pleasure that I present to you my report for the 2010/2011 financial year.During the period under review the Club operated for a period without a CEO or Bowls Coordinator.<strong>The</strong> efforts of the previous and current Directors should be recognised for the way they executedthese roles during this time.<strong>The</strong> Boards focus this year was to consolidate debt. At the commencement of this financial year, ourtotal indebtedness was $1,546,000. This has now been reduced by $307,623 to $1,238,377.In maintaining our debt reduction, we were able to record a profit for the year ending 30th June 2011of $148,351.55. This is our best result since 1999.I recall writing in our 2003 <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> my concern at the declining number of bowling members.In that year the Club had 399 male and female bowling members. As at 30th June 2011 numbershave declined to 306 male and female bowlers. <strong>The</strong> Board seeks continuing support from allmembers to help with recruitment in future membership drives.<strong>The</strong> Board recently met with a reputable Property Services Consultant about planning andpossible development of club assets. It is worth noting that this consultation was free and withoutcommitment.<strong>The</strong> Board looks forward to further exploring all options available, and undertake to ensure memberswill be kept abreast of any likely further developments.Brief summary of trading centres for the period under review2011 2010 VarianceBar Net Profit $ 521,959 $ 599,397 $(77,438) or (13%)<strong>The</strong> main contributor to the decline in bar profit is due to a change in policy, which lead to a changein the percentage allocation of staff wages to gaming activities. This change has caused animbalance in comparable figures.Poker Machine Net 2011 2010 VarianceClearances $2,098,226 $1,959,085 $139,141 or 7.1%Poker Machine Trading Net $1,335,519 $1,104,804 $230,715 or 20.9%<strong>The</strong> main contributor to the increase in poker machine profit is due to an increase in net clearancesof 7.1%. <strong>The</strong> Board policies, which lead to a change in the percentage allocation of staff wages togaming activities has again distorted comparable figures.Combined bar and poker machine wages represents a reduction of some 4.6% on the previousperiod.7

It is a great honour to be working for such a proud club.Firstly a big thank you to, President John O’Connell and his board and the CEO, Trevor Haynes, forthe way you have welcomed me to the club.It has been a mixed year for success on the green. Our pennant sides took to the greens with adesire to win, only to find that the opposition had the same idea…..that’s bowls. <strong>The</strong> effort was neverin question.A word of well done to all who dedicated their weekends to represent the Seahawks.Congratulations to the 2 Grade on making the Grand Final of the CCDBA No.2 Pennant.Unfortunately they were defeated by Halekulani but were far from disgraced, only going down in thelast couple of ends.Congratulations to all our players who had success in championships at club and district level. Youhave represented your club and its members with distinction.A word of well done to our representative players who featured in various zone and State events.Our social bowls programme was down on numbers this year. Weather certainly had an effect onmany days.Coming into spring we have some exciting events in the pipeline for both male and female bowlers.Hopefully this will see an increase in competitors on our greens.Welcome to all our new bowling members in 2011. I hope you enjoyed being coached as much as Ienjoy coaching. Once again welcome aboard and good luck in your new sport.Last but not least a big thank you to all who volunteered their services this year. Without your help8

In my Treasurer’s <strong>Report</strong> in the <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> I advised members that the club recorded a $24,691profit for the 2009/2010 financial year. This profit was only achieved due to the sale of 9 pokermachine entitlements for $145,000. <strong>The</strong>se poker machine entitlements were surplus to our needsboth in the immediate and well into the indefinite foreseeable future. <strong>The</strong> club currently has 77poker machines in our gaming area (with neither the space nor the need to expand). We held 87entitlements, sold 9 and now retain 78 entitlements.At the time the decision was made to sell the entitlements in the May/June period, the clubwas coming into the winter months and we were experiencing some liquidity problems due to aprogressive downturn in trade (along with, might I say, many other clubs) particularly in the corebusiness activity of poker machine revenue. Extensive research and consultation with industryexperts ascertained that the value of poker machine licences was diminishing and the time was rightto sell our surplus numbers. Any asset has to derive income but these surplus entitlements weresimply in the background and lying dormant.<strong>The</strong> Government is actively reducing licences and many of the big clubs, along with medium sizedclubs like ours, have been reducing their entitlements. <strong>The</strong> old idea that bigger is better has lost itscredence and we accepted the recommendations of industry experts who were of the firm opinionthat less machines working more effectively is by far the preferred option.To illustrate how fortuitous the timing of our decision turned out to be, the recent policy statementsmade by the Prime Minister in appeasing Independent and Green MP’s anti gaming machineagendas, has resulted in the value of poker machine entitlements plummeting. What this meansis that in the highly unlikely event, and I stress “highly unlikely”, that should we wish to increaseour machine numbers then poker machine licences/entitlements will be able to be purchasedsubstantially cheaper than our disposal price.Now I am sure most members would have done their maths and realised that had we not sold thesurplus poker machine entitlements we would have incurred a loss for the financial year in thevicinity of $120,000.This is disappointing after a run of 7 consecutive years’ losses (2 of which were over $100,000 in2005 and 2007) we managed last financial year to make an $80,000 profit.As I stressed in my Treasurer’s report, the club industry in general continued to experience toughtimes in 2009/2010 with many clubs closing their doors permanently and others being forced intoamalgamations. Following our renovations we enjoyed consistent growth in the key areas of clubrevenue for 20 consecutive months up until June 2009 when reverse trends commenced andcontinued for 11 months until June 2010 when the downward spiral stabilised.<strong>The</strong> club industry is a very competitive one at the best of times but in this part of the Central Coastwith such a comparatively large number of competitors in a pretty small geographic patch, forexample Diggers, Bateau Bay Sports, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Entrance</strong> Leagues, Mingara, Tuggerah Lakes Golf Club,Bateau Bay Hotel, <strong>The</strong> Lakes Hotel, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Entrance</strong> Hotel, we are all competing for our share of themarket, particularly visitors and holiday makers.I would like to reassure members that during this tough year the Board and the former CEO,recognising and being concerned about the loss in club patronage, worked tirelessly to keep control12


of costs whilst simultaneously pursuing new avenues to re-establish income growth.I firmly believe that some of these new initiatives have borne fruit as the last 3 months of July,August and September have all been up on last year so much so that our result for the first quarterof this financial year reflects a net profit of $49,898 compared to a net loss of $19,859 last year.Furthermore, based on the last 3 week’s trading figures, I can almost guarantee that this currentmonth of October will similarly be a profitable month. <strong>The</strong> outgoing Board therefore is handing overto the incoming Board a very healthy year to date profit for the first 4 months of the current financialyear.I am also confident that with our catering and general club facilities and an energetic and proactiveCEO and, hopefully, a Board of Directors committed to supporting the CEO and allowing him tomanage, the club will maintain the forward momentum and we will not only protect our identity,autonomy and assets but remain profitable.From a personal point of view, it was very disappointing to me that, although we religiously met our$20,000 per month offset against the principal amount of $1.4 million borrowed, we were requiredthrough the year to draw back all of this amount to pay bills and pay cash for a number of capitalexpenditure improvements we undertook. Thus the principal outstanding on the $1.4 million at 30June 2010 stood at $1,255,000, $35,000 greater than it was 12 months ago.I am pleased to advise members that, because of improved trading in the last 4 months, we havepaid $80,000 collectively off this principal in July, August, September and October so it now standsat $1,175,000 and we do have money in the bank. Indeed, our liquidity is solid due to the last fewmonths outstanding trading and the injection of funds emanating from the sale of the poker machineentitlements.Thank youBrian Hoscke asked the Treasurer John Ellison about <strong>The</strong> Star Buffet restaurant (Feastcorp) if theypaid rent and what the agreement was between them and <strong>The</strong> Club.John Ellison replied:- CATERERSI’m comfortable in explaining the rationale behind the Board’s decision, over 3 years ago, to allowthe club’s caterers, Feastcorp, to run their business in our premises rent free. This decision wasarrived at following contractual negotiations with Feastcorp’s two partners, Andrew Kong andAndrew Chan and their business advisor, Vic Smith.Before I go any further, I will now point out that, after approximately a 3 year rent free period,Feastcorp are now voluntarily paying $10,400 per annum in rent and, for those members whobelieve restaurant patrons do not contribute to club revenue, I will highlight that bar takings upstairsfor the year were well in excess of $100,000 and the keno terminal in the restaurant is a significantcontributor to our keno commission revenue.Let me emphasise that the caterers are not the enemy. Indeed, the Star Buffet is the number oneattraction to our club of social members and visitors and it is, by and large, the social members andvisitors who contribute the majority of the club’s revenue through the gaming lounge. Simply put,without the Star Buffet our club would severely struggle to survive.13


<strong>The</strong> predominant complaint I hear from members is that the vast majority of restaurant patrons donot stay in the club and just leave the club at the completion of their meal. That situation is NOT thefault of the caterers but, if anyone, the fault of the Board and management in not providing the rightattractions to have patrons want to stay on.It is a fact that good club caterers are essential in this industry to get people into the restaurant and,therefore into the club. Club management’s task is to keep as large a number of those people aspossible on the premises. Successful clubs ensure that their catering facilities attract patrons to theclub and they seek to ensure that they provide quality facilities and entertainment to ensure a goodpercentage stay on.Very few successful clubs charge rent to good caterers who fulfill their part of the deal in attractinglarge numbers of patrons and, in this regard, Feastcorp do not pay rent in any of the four other clubrestaurants they run in Bankstown, Mayfield, the Illawarra and Central Coast Leagues (although Iunderstand that they will commence paying rent in Gosford in June next year after a 3 year rent freeperiod).<strong>The</strong> contract signed with Feastcorp is a 43 page thorough and comprehensive legal document.Some clauses in the contract, which may be of interest to members, include:1. the caterers to pay for gas bills.2. the caterers to contribute 50% of the cost of all advertising and promotion3. the caterers to pay for their own waste removal and grease trap cleaning4. the caterers at their cost are to keep clean the restaurant and kitchen premises5. there is a requirement on the caterers of to maintain the provision of high quality meals usinghigh quality foodstuffs and presentationIn the original contract negotiations, Feastcorp’s two partners and their advisor pointed out a numberof factors as to why, from a common sense and business practicality point of view, they should beallowed to trade free of rent but meet such expenses as cleaning, gas bills, rubbish removal etc.Some of the points they made included:• Feastcorp met the cost of the restaurant fit out and construction to the extent of in excessof $500,000. This is extraordinary and almost without precedent in the club industry and itcould well be argued that this $1/2 million in construction and fit out costs to our premisesequates to numerous years of prepaid rent.• <strong>The</strong> core business activity of the club is gaming and bar trade. Both these activities aredependent on club patronage. As I have previously stated, club patronage is very muchcorrelated to the provision of attractive catering facilities.• Feastcorp, without the burden of a weekly rental, are more capable of being able to maintainthe quality of their food and keep prices at a reasonable level. With the benefit of the Club 83experience, the club is constantly monitoring food quality, price levels and service standardsin order to protect the flow on effect to our core business activities.14


It is also worth noting that those few clubs who continue to operate their own catering facilities, asopposed to employing contractors, invariably do so at a loss to the club and its bottom line.At the end of the day, when one sees and understands the importance to all licenced clubs of thetwo core business activities of gaming and bar trading, rental income is petty cash and simply notworth jeopardizing the success and survival of the club which, as I have stated, is reliant upon thesuccess of the Star Buffet.Moved K.
