Michael’s moved to Dooly’s Bedford. Rob is no longer the captain. The new captain’s are Bill Howell and Greg Johnson.

 

Cheques will be ordered, roughly $100 for 100. Discussed weather there was a cheaper way to go other than cheques. Using money orders or a credit card for the league.

Dave motioned that if a team plays a non-roster player during regular season play the team will be fined $25 and the points for that player are taken away.  Crystal seconded. All in favor, no one opposed.
