Dues

·         At the AGM it was voted and approved to go to a user based fee system with the details to be finalized at tonight’s Team Rep Meeting.  The following details on the user based fee system were approved:

·         Dues are set prior to the beginning of the season based on the season’s budget.  For the spring 2008 season, teams are responsible to pay $100 for each person on their roster. 

·         Fees will be pro-rated if a player joins AFTER half way through the season.  For each new person, the team will be charged $10 for all remaining games in the season. 

·         Once paid, fees will not be refunded.

Referee

·         Dale has agreed to referee part time.  There is one other person in mind to fill in when Dale can’t make it.

Miscellaneous Notes

·         Reminder – Season rosters are to be submitted at the first game.  Include the following information: name, phone number, email address and team contact. 

·         Reminder – A roster is to be submitted to the referee before every game.  Include the following information:  names of players on the field, date, opponent, and jersey numbers if available.

·         Reminder – For each new team, the league will purchase 14 sets of flags at $5.50 each and 1 ball.

·         Flag Guideline Update – At the 2008 AGM it was voted and approved to adopt Duncan’s flag dimensions.  The new dimensions are 2” x 15” (previously stated as 2½” width).  There is one lady on the island that makes white flags to the above dimensions and provides a black belt with a metal ringed buckle.  Get in touch with Wanda for the contact information.

·         Shaun will assist with sponsorship proposals for teams.

Schedule Start and End Dates (TBD)

·         This season, with 5 teams, the league has the option of playing each team twice or three times.  There are enough weeks available to play each team three times and the only additional cost would be for refereeing.  The motion was passed 100% to play each team three times.

·         There is no existing template for a 5 team, 30 game schedule.  Tanya volunteered to prepare the schedule.  It will be finalized and issued next week.

·         The first game of the season will be Sunday March 9^th and end with the Playoffs and Banquet Saturday June 14^th.
