Season Opening Update #3
Dear BOSL Members,
The draft is a month away!!
Parks have been firmed up and plans are being made for the tournaments. With things opening up we’re optimistically hoping for back to normal.
As of today, our numbers haven’t improved since the last update, despite advertising efforts. Since registration is low at this point, we have no choice but to run this year with a max of 14 teams. Even at 14 teams we only have enough for 13 players per team. Keep in mind that we still do not have enough captains, even for 14 teams. We currently only have 12 sets of captains so we’re looking for 2 more. As I mentioned in the last update, we had quite a few captains step down after last year. We still need some members to step up and consider volunteering for this year. We are looking for captain pairs or singles. If you are interested in captaining for the 2022 season, please contact me at smsinclair1966@gmail.com or Steve Bourke at crazycanuckeh@gmail.com.
Finally, we have quite a few players that have registered but not paid. I would like to remind everyone that if you’re not paid, or at least made arrangements with the Treasurer, you will not be eligible for the draft. Also, at this point in the year it’s first come first serve for the draft. This means that if we get more players than openings for the draft, those players that have paid the latest will be added to the waitlist. If we don’t get enough captains OR any registered players back out between now and the draft, the possibility of a 12 team league is very likely. If we end up at 12 teams, the waitlist will be long. Please get your payment in asap by e-transfer to treasurer@bosl.ca to ensure your place in the draft.
I hope everyone stays safe and looking forward to seeing all of you soon.
