2nd AGM MEETING AGENDA

for 08/11/99

1. Season Gripes

• Winning teams still not phoning in the results on a Monday Night therefore results incomplete for faxing to THE HUNTS POST & TOWN CRIER local papers. The 1 point penalty deduction for first offence as a warning and then 2 points for any subsequent offence not severe enough. Maybe we should take the Two points for a win off or award 4-4 to both teams

• Motion carried was to keep it as it is. However Point’s will be deducted this season.

• Result cards not being filled in Properly or not receiving them that week. I would like player’s names to be filled in with First Name (or Initial) followed by Surname. This enables me to keep track of how many Win’s a player has had. If not filled in properly then I have to guess who actually won the game so leads to inaccurate results for some players. Most problems occur when there are two players in the team with same name.

• Motion carried was to give two warning then deduct 1 point.

• Team Registration forms are being left till last possible minute or even past the deadline date. This causes a lot of rushing about and not being able to start the new league on time. Maybe I should impose a fine to teams who submit their forms late or omit them from the current season.

• Motion carried was that any team who has not paid their monies by the due date will be charged an extra £5 to participate in the league

• Team cancelling games and not being able to fit them in before end off-season. I propose that any game cancelled must be played within a month or before the last game of first / second half of season. Any game not played to these rules will result in a 4-4 draw

• Motion Carried was that the League Secretary must be made aware the following Monday when the game is to be played. Any game not played before the last game of the season will mean the team cancelling having points deducted. The Committee Panel will get involved if necessary to solve any unforeseen problems.

• Teams not turning up to last few games of season causing in-balance to the Final Division tables. I propose that a team should be fined for not turning up. £10 payable to league and £5 for opposing team for Wasted food.

• Motion carried was that the committee would get Involved to try and solve this problem

• Bad Sportsmanship. Bad referee calls causing unnecessary re-rack’s and Bad feeling within teams. Player’s barracking. People complaining about slow games. Teams turning up late and still expecting practise games. All referees should call when a player has two shots so he knows where he stands. Surely this is not two much to ask.

• Motion carried was that the opposing team would be given the table at 08:30pm and given 15 minutes practise time. The Match to start before 9pm. Referees will say 1^st Visit, 2^nd Visit when a player has two shots so to prevent any confusion.

• Violence. A Violent team player will not be tolerated in this league. What shall we do. Bar the player from the League or Team. I Propose that the player should be barred from the league for one season

• A committee panel will decide what to do with a player who is Violent. He could be banned for a season , couple of games or even thrown out the league permanently

• Complaints: How do we deal with complaints. Do we need a Committee. If a committee is needed then it should be 1 person from each Venue (Not Pool Team) or just select a couple of people who want to be elected.

• It was decided that any complaints are reported to the League secretary. The League secretary will call a committee meeting to decide and vote on the complaint. The committee will consist of four members (two from the Premier League and two from the First Division) + the League Secretary. The two first division members will vote on premier league problems and visa versa. The League secretary having the deciding votes in the event of a difference of opinion. People letting me know if they would like to stand as a committee member, preferably in writing would decide the committee.

1. New Proposals / Issues for forthcoming Season

Have a meeting in six month’s time to see if teams want the rules to come in.

1. 1. Where you only get 2 Points for a Win and 0 for Lose. The legs
   2. Count in the case of a draw
   3. No Two Points for a Win just legs only

Keep scoring as it is

If two teams are totally equal at the end of season then the winner will be decided on whom won the most legs when they played each other. If that is equal as well then a play-off at a neutral venue is the only way to decide.

The Two players who are tied play a best of three to decide who wins the prestige title of LEAST DEFEATED PLAYER.

A player may partner anyone he wants in the Doubles K/O as long as he is a registered player in the Winter League. He does not have to play for your team.

If a team wants to drop out for 1 season then they will have to come back in the bottom division,

• What if the same player’s transfer from 1 pub to another pub?

• What if the pub changes name?

If a team leaves a Venue and goes to another Venue then they must start in the bottom division. This means that the Venue they left can submit a brand new team and keep their place in the division they were in. Teams if they wish do not have to be named after the Venue they play for. This means you can move venue without losing your table status.

1. Way Forward

• It would be good if I could Fax /email everyone the new Fixture lists and results rather then Posting or Travelling. Does everyone have a Fax / Email Number I could have for this purpose

• A Web page has been set-up by me for the Stanjay Sports League. The URL is www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~fxmuldar/sshpool.htm . I update the Division tables on it every Monday Night / Tuesday Morning for teams to see where they stand. Any Idea’s on what you want on it then let me Know.

• At end of season Normally Two teams from Premier league will go down and Two will come up from the First Division. If more new teams come in then only the bottom team from Premier league will go down and maybe more then two will go up depending on circumstances.

The Captains seamed to agree that if teams dropped out and more space became available in Premier League then the teams would get filtered back up. 2 would definitely go up but none would go down if there were slots available. I could call a committee if many partied were not happy with my decision.
