Tournament format - Board to come up with a format with the criteria being that the games end at the normal mid afternoon time on Sunday and that all teams have meaningful games to play Sunday am.
Balls - Brad raised the question of the difference between the red stitching balls that we returned and the blue stitching balls that we replaced them with. Both balls are identical SKUs with one being SPN branded and one being SPO branded. We returned the SPN balls. Ron to reach out to the manufacturer for more clarification. Once we have that we need to order 18 dozen for the upcoming year. We have 17 dozen on hand.
Bases - Brad has cleared out the bins and has taken 6 damaged bases to HB Base for repair. They are now with Mike Hubbs. One rental set and the set that we own are in storage. All masks and defibrillators accounted for. We also have approximately 70-80 used balls in storage.
Diamonds - We have requested an additional Tuesday - Thursday slot from the city in an effort to get rid of the Wednesday games. We will follow that up with an in person meeting prior to diamond allocation in December
Sponsors - Sponsor(s) have requested a more prominent display of their logos. Erwin to look at Jersey designs to perhaps satisfy players and sponsors
Captains - Next meeting we will go through the submissions and determine the captain pairings. Calling all captains message to be included in Brad's initial message to the league. We are in a position where we will likely have more captains than slots available. Board will determine the best fits for the league
BOHC - BOHC (Scot Cameron) has reached out requesting a door prize for their Christmas dance. Carl to reach out to Scot. We will satisfy their request on the condition that they reciprocate for one of our events.
Nelson lights - These are still not fixed. We will push for this after we receive our diamond allocations
