Notes from the Commish

Sometimes, I pass these along. It may be interesting to see how the league works. Note the roster rules and issues at Trinity.

Hey all,

just a couple of things to mention this
week

1) Rosters

Thank you all for getting your rosters
in on time - we didnt have to have a single forfeit last week which is
what we had hoped. Remember, from here on out, you cannot use a
player that was not included on that official roster submission. Referees
reserve the right to check. To reiterate, this is not to handcuff your
teams to not be able to field or squad, or solely to keep from bringing in
ringers, but rather as an insurance issue to make sure the league has all its
players covered under its policy. Unregistered players put us at
significant risk.

And a big thank you to Jen Roberts for spending
her time herding the cats and compiling everything for us to meet our State
association deadlines.


2) Trinity &
dogs

Over the past few weeks, more and more people have been
bringing dogs to Trinity. Simply dont do it. If you have friends and
family coming to watch your game, make sure to tell them not to bring
Fido. We have a great relationship with Trinity and breaking clear rules
like these starts to hurt that. Oh and keep not peeing in the woods - nice
job with that one....


3) Nets/Flags

Every
week we have a net/flag snafu where teams either dont bring their equipment or
didnt know they needed nets, etc. Its the bane of my existence to spend
time unraveling these mysteries of life as to who has the extra set. Some
simple rules to live by:

Bring the nets/flags to every game even if
you think there will be nets and flags already on the pitch
If the team after
you doesnt have thier equipment to swap out, you are well within your right to
take down the net and go home. If you choose to do the sporting thing and
let the subsequent teams play leaving you without equipment, it is on you to
work with those teams to figure out the swap. Everyone has the captains
list and can contact the teams directly. The exec committee does not need
to be involved.
If your captain is going to be out of town, make sure
to make arrangements to have someone else on your team bring the equipment
We
do have one team missing a net right now, so if you have an extra net or flags,
please let me know.

4) Marina field (swamp)

The Marina
field has essentially been unplayable this season with all the rain. We
have moved all games this weekend from Marina to the Mall (Lincoln #1) and in
all likelihood will move all Marina games to LMRP for the rest of the
season.

Keep an ear out for the weather line again this
weekend as weve got a little rain going down again.

thanks,

Sanjay
CCSL Commissioner
