New Business:

Ø                  There was discussion regarding combining with Silver Bay at the Bantam level only.  It was agreed to go further with discussion with Silver Bay for a five-year plan, to be reviewed each year.  Some decisions already decided are the number of coaches and assistants and where practices will be held. There are still decisions that need to be made, including a name for the team, and uniforms.  A letter will be sent to all upcoming Bantam-level player’s parents notifying them of this change.  Sandy Nordean made a motion to enter into a five-year vision with a year-to-year review.  Vote was taken and passed unanimously.

Ø                  It was agreed to participate in the Heritage Days parade again this year.  Roger will call the team leaders and will contact the Parade Chair to register.

Ø                  We have signed up for the 2008 Peewee A’s.

Ø                  Tanya will check on pull tab machines to be placed at Blackwoods.

Ø                  Roger and Jesse attended the District 11 spring meeting and learned the following:  We need to conduct background checks on all coaches, assistants, and Board members.

Beginning with the next season, there will no longer be “mini mites.” There will now be Mites 1 and Mites 2. 

Training for Peewee and Bantam players will be offered in Silver Bay on November 1 at 5 p.m.  They must attend this training in order to referee any Mite games/tournaments. 

We can’t cross district lines when attending tournaments without the prior approval from the District. 

Ø                  This was the third and final reading in the Minutes that the coaches’ representative will be appointed in March with the election of new officers.  The Bylaws will now be changed to reflect this change.

Ø                  It was decided that we will have a meeting in June this year.

 

Doreen Johnson made a motion to adjourn; seconded by Amy Cavallin.  Motion carried.

 

Next meeting will be Monday, June 11, 2007 at 7 p.m.
