She is still missing rosters from some of the clubs. Player-ups must be submitted before any preseason games are played. Player fees are $30 per player including Tier I players. No fees for coaches. Bob Doherty reiterated for the clubs not to roster coaches who do not have the proper levels and who are not screened.

 

Ice Convener – Chris Carcerano informed the board that he has one conflict in the A/B games and he is correcting it. In addition, Chris reiterated rule 26.04 that states that all clubs must disclose their ice cost in order to facilitate collection of forfeited games and the like. In addition, Chris emphasized rule 26.11 regarding Tier II rescheduling. The process is: 1- make sure the league is notified immediately; 2- the opponent is notified and 3- the officials’ scheduler is notified. Please remind your Tier II managers to familiarize themselves of this rule. The new game must be rescheduled within one week of the original date and the game must be played within 30 days of the original date.
