Commissioner’s Report Bob Doherty thanked Sandy Blumberg, Wendy Goldstein, Chris Carcerano, Rosemary Voulelikas and Bob Driffill for their assistance during the SCAHA Championships. Bob thanked all the rinks and clubs who hosted the SCAHA playoffs. The playoffs went smoothly and their help was much appreciated. Bob recapped the CAHA Championships. Out of eight-(8) possible state championship titles, SCAHA came away with four-(4) state titles and Norcal came away with four-(4) state titles as well. The 2009 District Tier Championships saw California coming away with seven-(7) of the possible eight District Championship titles and of the seven five-(5) were from Southern California. At the Nationals, the LA Selects BN AA team won the National Championship. Congratulations to all the teams for a job well done!
Deputy Commissioner’s Report Bob Doherty reported on behalf of Sandy Blumberg who is absent. Bob read from an email report from Sandy. Sandy is receiving many complaints from officials that have yet to receive payment for working the SCAHA playoffs. Rinks/clubs should have already paid their officials for working the respective playoffs. Rinks/clubs are to submit their invoice and SCAHA to reimburse. Please email Sandy if there is a problem. There will be a rules committee meeting sometime in May hopefully before the May SCAHA board of directors’ meeting. Anyone interested should email Sandy. And finally, the bids for the CAHA mandated Tier II weekends have been sent out and Sandy is encouraging the rinks and clubs to submit bids.
