For me its the information, communication and co-ordination that needs addressed. Its not a dig at the usual suspects who give countless hours already, simply stating the obvious. There are too many examples to mention.
The forum, apart from being overly critical at times, must seem antiquated to kids. We need a fresh look at how we communicate to the juniors and, perhaps even more important the parents as its awol. We need some sort of communications and technical director.
I was going to say we could do with a separate forum for juniors but it really needs to be more like facebook or twitter - possibly with the option of users using chess login names as many juniors would not want there real facebook account being linked to chess topics- We could do worse than have an junior representative as well - they are more computer savvy anyway
