Meeting Minutes - February 26, 2025

February 26, 2025

Attendance: 4 teams did not show

Coins were given out to teams to use as markers.

We are having a Naming contest to name our mascot.

Discussion:

1. End of Year Prizes

   • Grab bag

   • Money

   • Donation to charity

   • Cues/ Cue Cases etc.

   Still going to try to put together a list of offerings.  Should we run out of time to get Prizes, money has been suggested as the preferred year end gift.

2. Season Champion Prize Money

   • Instead of jackets, it has been suggested that the money be donated to a charity of the winning team's choice

3. Playoffs

   • We will be using the app

   • We will need to keep track of innings like in the regular season – this is to avoid programming changes. It will be set up to stop when one team reaches 3 points

   • It has been voted on that the rule is to be updated to - players must be present at playoff games in order to be used in the team's line-up

4. Team 15

   • Has been late turning in money 12 times

   • Normally this would disqualify them from Playoffs. However, the Captains present have voted to allow them to play, but only if they pay on time all remaining games of the regular season and their winning will be donated to a charity of their choice.

5. Trophies

   • The Captains present have voted that we start fresh,  no need to update the trophies for the last 5 years

Notes and topics for further discussion:

• We are going paperless! scoresheets will be available for you to download and print yourself. Should you need, the league will print sheets for you. this can be updated via your team's settings page.

• Handicaps are based on the average of your last 70 games

  • This is how Handicaps are currently being calculated

  • Should we continue this way or go to a different calculation…

• Season and Playoff Payout Structure

  • We payout the top 16 teams – this was 50% when we had 32 teams and 40% when we were at 40 teams. It now represents 80% of 20 teams

    • Do we continue or change this?

  • Do we want to continue paying all brackets the same or do we want to change it so that higher brackets get more (we use to do this years ago)

  • This will not effect the current season
