The Team

The work of the International Council is by definition collaborative with a few ‘staff’ to help coordinate and encourage progess with our priorities.

We could include all delegates around the world, working in their respective Area Councils. We could include the steering group who most months gather online to discuss plans, issues and to keep information flowing.

But this page focuses on those who are employed in various functions.

After a shaky start the boy done good. He doesn’t go in for this new fangled double-backhand, and his speciality is a delicate cross court drop shot, followed by a wry grin…he’ll go far, though his doctors only give him 3 weeks. Please join us in our prayers that they are very wrong…

Aparājita

For many, Aparajita is the beating heart of the International Council,  perhaps even the life blood that flows in its veins. Without him, the word dessicated springs to mind, or moribund – at least limping. One day he’ll be gone, and then where will we be? Join us in our prayers that that day never comes…
