Emma Sparks
Acting Interim Chair & Secretary
Commercial Working Group
Emma's a fairly new Bath City Supporter. She was captured by the community feel of the club through her involvement with the Big Bath City Bid in 2016 and was keen to see how else she could volunteer to support the club. She brings with her a 'can do' attitude and prior experience of serving on a committee having been active in a number of roles on Bath Rugby Supporters' Club. Her background was initally as a Primary School teacher. These days though she is more of an admin whizz! Her first Bath City match was at home against Hemel Hempstead where we won 6-0 in the 16/17 season. She has since helped to manage the hugely successful Crowdfunder campaign for the Play-offs and steps into this role for a year.
Re-elected in 2019

Peter McCormack
Vice Chair
I started watching Bath City as a lad in 1968 and 52 years later I am still here! I was born in Bath but left in 1974 and have been an exile ever since but still have family there so come home regularly. I was heavily involved in the 2003 share but back and was so happy to see the Society take ownership in more recent times. Supporter/community ownership is to be cherished and promoted. I am proud to follow Bath City FC. If elected I see my role as ensuring the society’s members have a real say in Club direction, values and ambition. The Society Committee must hold the Board to account. I will also be very active in supporting fundraising activities. Our community role is vital in an increasingly fractured world our anti racist/sexist community involvement ethos must be maintained and promoted actively. I believe we must be ambitious and achieve EFL status but only by financial stability. A successful redevelopment is a key foundation but 3 year business plans that adhere to a ‘break even’ approach to budgets is paramount.

Sally Harris
Community Working Group
Sally has been a supporter of the Club since becoming involved in the Big Bath City Bid in 2016, after which she sat on the Board as Community Director for a couple of years.
She grew up in Bath and works for a local charity in the field of refugee resettlement, and has experience working with a range of local community groups and charities both in a professional and voluntary capacity.
She is keen to support the success and development of the community ownership model and wants to see more supporters finding opportunities to be actively involved in running the Club and furthering its community initiatives.
There is huge scope for the Club to have a positive impact on the lives of its neighbours and the city as a whole, so Sally hopes to identify ways for supporters to contribute to this work through the Club, Foundation & Youth teams. The upcoming redevelopment will be a crucial opportunity for supporters and the community to influence the future of our Club and there must be opportunity for them to do so.
