Hey Everyone,
Great night last night. It was a great way to end the pre-season. With that I have some official business regarding this upcoming season…
1. I’ve decided that we are going to play with just 3 teams this year. I like the way the league is going but I still think it might be a bit early to try and make the jump to 4 teams. With that said I am capping registration. We have room for one more full-time player. Once I have filled that spot, it will be by a drop-in basis only.
2. What this means is that you NEED to get YOUR MONEY in ASAP. Yeah, I have your name down, but if I don’t have your money and someone else comes in with a full season of fees… they will replace you. You all have to get your money in by game time next week. If you don’t have your money in by next week your not eligible to play in the first week of the season.
3. Last night got a bit out of hand in regards to physical play. We will be cracking down on physical play on the boards, in the corners and in front of the nets. We all have to remember that this league, while meant to be competitive in nature, is also meant to be recreational. With that in mind, I’d rather not hear complaining about the physicality on the floor, if you are one of the culprits. So everyone, scale back their physical play a notch or two to ensure we can all still have fun.
4. With that said, I would like to ask all of your help. For each game, I would like to have 2 scorekeepers, as well as 2 refs. IF you would like to volunteer for any of these jobs on a given night, please let me know before play for the week begins. The more eyes we have, the better we can call the game.
5. Listen to your Captains… they are the people responsible on teams to make decisions. If you have a beef, tell them before you come to me. The captains are again: Cody Kemper & Mike Prins (Jets), Chad Utke (North Stars) and Chris Fraser (Rockies)
Thanks again to everyone. Please read through these, and check out the pre-season stats and stuff in all the other pages.
