    Fred

    The 86ers have been included in the A league, following their desire to play this season, but missing the deadline for the B league. The 86ers have failed to show up for a couple of games and had not paid on starting in the A league, but did pay Keith when they played Double Penetration in week three.

    There were a few issues with the stats in the first week, but Fred worked with Rick to resolve these and things are working ok at the moment.

    Dean will take over captaincy of the Stingers and a transfer fee is due for Brad.

    Roger

    Roger completed measuring several boards for the start of the season and noted that the Wind Jammer has a new ockey.

    Scott

    Scott had fees due from the Stingers.

    Rick

    There were a few roster changes to be made following the addition and transfer of a few players. Rick also explained to the board that he had made the changes to the welcome page so that team standings and single standings are automatically update from the stats pages.

  2. UNFINISHED BUSINESS

    Start of new season

    It was noted by the board, that the start of the season went fairly well; there were a couple of expected problem with rosters, stats and teams. The Captain's meeting in particular went well as there was a very good turnout.

    Cliff mentioned that it is important to get the latest stats posted at each of the participating venues. This has been complicated recently as the print feature for stats has not been working on the league website. Rick explained that he had just fixed the problem, so printed stats pages are now available. Keith said he would post the latest stats pages at the Poet, Cliff said he would post at the Med, the Bocci's and the Windjammer. Other board members said they would post at the remaining venues.

    Unpaid Players/Sponsors

    The Stingers have now paid in full.

    Adding inter-league Play

    The board continued their discussion about adding inter-league play. However the inter-league play is implemented, the board recognizes that it must not interfere with the end of season banquet. There was no agreement reached on whether the inter-league play should held over just one week, or over two.

    Cliff brought up his idea of how teams would be credited with participating and these ideas were discussed by the board. Cliff suggested crediting each participating team with 3 games, which would serve as an incentive to get teams to take part.The discussion continued and various topics such as A or B league rules, talking to various teams and players for feedback and conducting a web poll were discussed. While the board did not reach any final agreement on inter-league play, the board voted unanimously to continue the discussion, asking each board member to submit their ideas at the next meeting.

    The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 p.m.

  3. NEXT MEETING:

    24th March 2007 @ 7:00 p.m. Location 1007; all League members are welcome.
