Minutes of Meeting—July 9th 2006 Call to Order President Antonio Rosales called the meeting to order at 6:40 p.m. at Round Table Pizza on Marlow Road. Teams Present Present: Black Oaks, Empire F.C., Forestville United, Habaneros, Just For Fun, Maximum Force, Norcal F.C., Shockers, Sonoma United Approval of Minutes The June minutes were reviewed and approved. Reports of Officers and Committees Antonio Rosales, President: Reminded managers that if teams don’t have enough players (7 players, 4 of whom are women) at game time (there is a 15-minute grace period), they forfeit the game and will be fined $50 (cost of the ref). At that point, the teams can elect to scrimmage. The ref has the option of staying or not. Not too much feedback from managers this month. A lot of teams having trouble making up all the games they need to. Hard to always get 10-11 players. Also, Forestville field hadn’t been marked for the past couple weeks. Brian Aicega, Vice President: Has received the extra paint we ordered. Offered to give some to Leo of Forestville Kixx to mark the Forestville field. Sue Zaharoff, Treasurer: Absent, but submitted the following report via e-mail: Beginning June balance $6800. One deposit for refund on Luchessi field of $80.00. One check for $265.72 to Brian for spray paint. Balance in account end of June is $6600. Outstanding bills to be paid in July: referee pay, Sunrise field useage (I will need a bill from Antonio), ? Forestville field donation $150.-$200. ?, and team refunds based on the 2006 season. These are all the costs I can think of. Dave Wilson, Registrar: Absent. Brian Peddinghaus, Ref Coordinator: Absent but told the President that all was OK. Would like someone else to be coordinator next year as he had a tough time this year. Other managers expressed that they thought he did a great job and would be sorry to see him leave the position. Luis Medina, Game Scheduler/Webmaster: Reported that he is not getting that many score reports from managers. Managers asked to e-mail Luis with the results of their games ASAP so that he can post the scores. Rolf Stevens, Parliamentarian: Nothing to report. Old Business General consensus was that marking the fields ourselves worked out well. The people who volunteered did a great job. Important to stay in touch with women’s league in order to coordinate marking around rainouts. Rolf pointed out that we need to make sure that the fields are marked correctly (regulation size) at the beginning of the season. Maybe burn key points and then fill in with paint in between. New Business Kick Around: Kick Around scheduled for July 15th. Luis is not sure exactly how many teams will be coming. Managers asked to tell their players where/when to show up. Bring their photo IDs or player cards to get a wristband. Only players with wristbands can play. Games will be 25 minute halves, 10 minutes between games. We can mix up players to form teams as needed, so singleton players should be encouraged to come out. There will be two refs. We will pay them $30/game. Games will be at 9:00, 10:05, 11:10, 12:15. A motion was made to purchase refreshments for Kick Around, not to exceed $300. All were in favor. Rules & Regs Review Committee: Rolf reminded everyone that we need to form a committee to review the current rules and regulations and make recommendations to the Board for changes. This should happen during the off season. Managers asked to pass along the word to players, to get volunteers for the committee and to solicit ideas for changes that need to be made to the current set of rules. Suggested that we have the meeting the first week in August. (Secretary reserved the room at Round Table for Sunday Aug 6th at 6:30. All players interested in attending should come.) Fall League: Antonio reported that Sunrise field is available Saturdays September through November. If we could get 6 teams to sign up for a Fall league, we could play at 9:00, 11:00, and 1:00. If we had more teams, we could do a 3:00 game as well. Cost for 10-week season would be about $400/team. Managers encouraged to coordinate with other managers to form a team if they don’t have enough players interested on their own teams. It was agreed that if players wanted to play with another team for this Fall season, they could use their current player cards with a special “Fall” sticker placed on the card by the Registrar. Teams should sign up with Antonio by mid-August. A meeting for the managers of all teams playing in the Fall league was scheduled for Sunday Aug 27th at 6:30 at Round Table. (Secretary reserved the room.) Open Division: The idea of having an open division in the spring league was brought up again. Most felt that the idea was OK, but there weren’t enough teams. Teams wanting to enter our league in an open division should be encouraged to find more teams to join in that division so they will have someone to play. Meeting Adjourned at 7:25 p.m. Next scheduled meeting (for rules & regs review committee): Sunday August 6th at the Round Table Pizza on Marlow (at Guerneville Road, in the Safeway shopping center) at 6:30 p.m. Next scheduled meeting (for Fall league): Sunday August 27th at the Round Table Pizza on Marlow (at Guerneville Road, in the Safeway shopping center) at 6:30 p.m. Submitted by Sarah Martin 2 August 2006
