Matters arising:

Roslyn-Wakari played Southland Women on 7 June 2010 at Southend United grounds as a curtain raiser to their men’s Chatham Cup game.
Not the greatest playing conditions being cold, and wet under foot.   R-W won 4 – 3.

14th grade girls – still awaiting a trial date from the office. (6th August refer to Site NOTICEBOARD)

18th grade girls – first training night Tuesday 27 July, 30 plus names put forward.

Financial: Tracey to check if we received any refund on the deposit paid for accommodation in Dunedin for Queens Birthday weekend tournament.

Correspondence:

Various  Uncle Toby’s Cup draw – Tracey, Waihopai, and Queenstown.

               Kolk Trophy – Tracey and Ken re sorting winner if points drawn. (Not Needed)

               Under 18s – nomination letters, van hire, booking training venues.

               Under 14s – checking out interest and getting a coach and trial dates.

               Trip to Roslyn-Wakari in September – no date from them yet.

Inward    Andrea Potter – noting her frustration with their rescheduled game against Queenstown and lack of communication early on.    She also expressed the wish to have all knockout games played in Southland.  Moved Tove, 2nd Ryan.

Wendy is to write to Footballsouth with a copy to New Zealand Football stating the need to keep us informed of any of our club teams entered in National competitions and the playing dates at the start of the season so our draw can be altered as required at an earlier date.

General Business

1.  Southland’s Senior Prize-giving – 10 September 2010 at the Kelvin Hotel from 7pm, with a bar operating and a light supper to follow.     2009 trophy winners please hand these in to the office before 15 August 2010 or bring to knockout finals.

2.  Rules and regulations – we have come across a number of issues this year with the entry of Queenstown into our competition this season as well as the closeness of the competition.
It was decided general rules will be reviewed and a list compiled which will be sent to each club delegate at the start of each season so that everyone is aware of what they need to be doing to compete fairly.

3.  2011 player registrations – to be done on-line by each club’s administrator with inactive members who have not paid their sub will be ineligible to play.    Southland Football is to have an information meeting on this at some stage.

4.  Knock out competition, home teams first name drawn from bag, games are:

Riverton vs Thistle

Queens Park vs Old Boys

Winton vs Queenstown

Waihopai  vs Southend United

Rules to be circulated to clubs.   First four teams are on one side of draw, next four teams on the other.
Venues will be with published draw.

5.  Kolk Trophy – have looked at replacing it but will try and get some league sponsorship to do this.     Ideas welcome.

6.  Registrations – received since our last meeting.

Business Topic

Key Points/ Action

Follow  Up

Matters Arising

14th grade girls team is going ahead

 

 

Waihopai Club Day was day all games were cancelled

 

 

SBS contract details – information not found as yet.

 

Correspondence

 

 

Various

Between Junior Wanderers and Waihopai 15th grade re angry spectator; apology from Waihopai was forthcoming.

Round 13th and 15th grade teams for end of season format – replies wanted to play full length games so finish round on 4 Sep with no knockout.

Comments on past season circulated.

 

Inward

Junior Wanderers 15th grade request to have points reinstated as card was posted but did not arrive. It was moved “that the 3 points be reinstated”. Moved Lance, 2nd Ross.

SBS – wishing to donate a trophy for best player for each of junior grades, thought possibly one per club.   Ken to look into and sort out.

Queens Park 13th grade unhappy with default game to them not being played but the 2 – 0 default win stands.

                                                                               Moved Doug, 2nd Grant.   

 

Financial Report

 

 

General Business

 

 

Finals referees

Lance has some sorted out, but would like some more.

 

Draw

7th grade final error, should be Waihopai Chipmunks vs O.B. United.   3rd and 4th play offs can finish in draw; finals require extra time and penalties if still tied.

 

14th grade girls

Moved “that they be given $100 per tournament day to funds, $300.” 

Moved Lance, 2nd Grant.   Require a strip for 12 Sept.

 

Review2010/Preview 2011

Ken to complete a full report but some general thoughts were:  total player numbers over past three years have not changed much, start earlier (probably April) and finish earlier (probably Aug); play only one weekend of school holidays (debate as to which end), play Q.B. weekend, 11th grade up have no preseason games, lower grades will.   Concentrate on just league games with no knockouts, but possibly a separate contest at the end for teams who wish to enter if time allows.  Oldest teams possibly have a full round then divided according to results for competition round that follows.

 

Meeting closed at 9.30pm
