Ballot Measures: Measure 1: Creation of a Website Supervisor
Board Position
Passed
Currently the SCCDA by-laws state that the Competition
Secretary/Statistician for the dart league is in charge of maintaining the SCCDA
website. The Statistician's job and the work of maintenance of the website have
grown to such a point that it is no longer feasible for one person to maintain
the website and do all the other things required. Therefore, it is proposed that
a separate position of Website Supervisor be created. The Website Supervisor
would be an elected member of the Board of Directors.
Measure 2: Non-playing board members
Passed
Currently, the SCCDA by-laws require that all members of the
Board of Directors (with the exception of the Pub Representative) be playing
members of the SCCDA. Sometimes circumstances are such that some Board members
or persons interested in running for Board positions are unable to play
regularly on a team, but are able to perform the duties of certain Board
positions. To avoid the necessity of removing a non-playing Board member and to
encourage more people to run for office, it is proposed that only the
Commissioner, President, and League Representatives must be playing members of
the SCCDA, and that other positions can be filled by a non-playing member if the
majority of the Board approves. Question: Shall the by-laws be changed so that
only the Commissioner, President, and League Representatives must be playing
members of the SCCDA and that other Board members can be non-playing members if
the majority of the Board approves?
Measure 3: English Cricket Rules
Passed
Currently, the SCCDA allows English Cricket as an option for the
third game played in an A-League singles match. This game is currently played
with a six bull goal and the requirement that the second player to shoot points
beat the first players score, not just tie it. As such these playing conditions
could result in an unfair or undefined scoring situation should the first person
to shoot choose bulls and hit six on their first attempt. The second player has
no possibility of winning, as even if they also shoot six bulls on their first
attempt, they have not beated the first players score of zero. Since the
required 6 bulls to close is arbitrary (ADO rulls require 10) and in order to
promote the spirit of competition, it is proposed that we amend the rules to
contain a description of English Cricket (singles) as requiring 7 bulls to
close.
