ADIOS AND THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES Words from the Chairman - Carl Heslop
Image credits: one20media
Sadly, these will be my last Chairman’s notes as I return to being a mega fan from the 15th of December following my resignation announcement this week. It was a really tough decision to make but one that I knew had to happen as my construction business had tripled in size and it had been really difficult spinning way too many plates over the past twelve months. I will really miss the day-to-day interaction with players, staff and being part of the professional club. I’ve also learnt loads and made some amazing friends along the way. I would like to say a personal thank you to PJ who has been a constant throughout the patriot’s journey and had to deal with by far the most challenging times of any BBL coach in the league. He has done it with integrity, professionalism, and a willingness to try and make so much happen in Plymouth. We have stood side by side riding this wave and it has been an absolute pleasure to get to know him both on and off the court. I’m sure our journey won’t end here and continue to support each other in the future. In regard to the staff again I would like to say thank you to Louise, Paul, Ben, Nick, Doug, and Will who I’m sure won’t miss my nagging on a daily basis but have been great to work with and give everything for the club. I hope the league value each and every one of them as I do and can deliver the franchise they deserve. I also need to say a big thank you to my family and friends who have supported me throughout, experienced the frustrations and tribulations of me trying to do the right thing and made many sacrifices on my behalf. It is much appreciated and hope I can now start to repay that faith over the coming months.
Plymouth is a very special place for basketball and have by a country mile the best fans in the league who really deserve to have topflight sport in the city. Sadly, that isn’t matched by those who could have made a venue for the club happen and we haven’t moved the needle in the city to getting a space where we can generate revenue. I appreciate we are in different times but every other professional sports club in Plymouth have at some point received a venue with support from the city and they wouldn’t be able to have survived without that intervention. We sadly are still waiting and those who say they want basketball to continue need to start proving it. We have been hearing just words for far too long. Since resigning I have received many messages from parents outlining to me how much of an impact our youth programmes have had on their children. Detailed accounts of how shy, anxious and in some cases serious behavioural issues have become rounded, confident, and stable children through basketball have really touched me and why I don’t regret stepping in and trying to drive all aspects in the city. Basketball is a very special sport and has such a massive impact on everyone it grabs and is why I fought so hard to grow it at every opportunity. The foundation is there now and proud that I was able to put a framework in place for success which just now needs investment and a place it can call home. And finally, a bit thank you to the fans, you have been amazing and will love sitting amongst you for the remainder of the season to really cheer on the team and give them as much support as I can from the crowd. It has been a pleasure to serve as your chairman and only one thing left to say.

A break away from inflexible ways of working; a positive culture with better interaction with clients. This is Beverston. Too often clients of accountancy firms don’t feel valued. They’re just a number in the filing cabinet. In our line of business, building positive relationships matters. Our purpose is to understand our clients’ businesses, their problems and aspirations. Listening gives us the understanding to provide a better value service, which is advisory, attentive and tailored to the client’s needs. Whether you’re a start-up or an established family business, it makes a refreshing difference. We work in partnership with Xero. Xero provide simple accounting software which enables small business owners manage their finances in real time. Our team are experts and can provide support wherever you are. We are delighted to have been involved with the birth of Plymouth City Patriots and proud to be supporters. We look forward to getting together with friends and family to cheer on the team.
