This outline will serve as a base, and a sub-committee made up of Ian, Gord, Lee and Bobbi will make edits/suggestions and bring forth a revised version to the January board meeting. A system for referee of the year will also be developed that will likely include nominations from the SDSRAI. If there is no interest from the SDSRAI to recognize their members this award may not be continued. i. MVP Voting System Improvements This issue will be delegated to a sub committee. Sub committee will propose how to proceed with the award, or whether we should proceed with the award at all. Sub committee is Ray, Lee, Morgan and Bobbi. Additionally, this sub-committee will evaluate the potential of making the Awards Night a larger scale “Social” or “Caberet”. MVP improvement ideas and Awards Night format are an action item for January 2013. j. Tournament Fees/Third Party Contracts - RE: SSA Fees Bobbi presented a sample contract that teams will have to sign before SASI will agree to be the host district on the SSA Sanction form. Received as information. Board wants to know how SSA justifies this fee. Dena will send an email to Doug Pederson. k. Christmas/New Years Hours of Operation Office will be closed, staff will be given two “free” days off between December 24th and December 31st. They may take holidays or work the remaining working days in-between. Bobbi will talk to staff to determine which days people will be coming in, and which days will be taken as holidays. l. Office Christmas Party (see summary sheet) Received as information. m. Staff Clothing Staff may order T-shirts or Polos with the SASI Logo. n. Office Supplies/Software Updates Bobbi requests permission to upgrade to Microsoft Office 2010, as the staff is currently using the 2003 version. The cost would run around $700.00. This purchase has been approved. Wireless keyboard and mouse sets for Eden and Morgan – would run at about 60 bucks/set. Board approves. o. ID Card/Preseason Process Staff can decide to eliminate ID Card expiration dates for next Outdoor Season. p. SSC Levy 2010/2011 Bobbi will hold on to the SSC 2010/2011 Levy cheque until the issue of a maintenance budget is brought up at the next SSC board meeting. q. Masters/Classics 2013 Nationals Hosting ( see summary sheet) Board voted and decided that hosting the Masters/Classics Western championship in 2013 would not be in SAS’s best interest. The board will consider hosting in 2014. r. Changes to Executive Director and Tech Coordinator Reports The new report still contains more information than the board needs to know. Board would rather see a “Noteworthy Events” report that would simply highlight major events/changes occurring in the office in the last month. s. Changes to Discipline Report Dena and Jason would like to see what the red cards were issued for. Otherwise the new report meets the needs of the board. t. Website Issues and Possible Solutions (see summary sheet) After discussion the board agreed that the best solution would be to have Quadrant take over control of the CMS portion of the website, and basically come up with their own ($2500) – instead of paying $1200 gain access to what 2Web has set up already. There could be potential issues/additional costs while trying to fix and modify 2Webs current CMS. Before any of that is done, Bobbi needs to call 2Web to figure out how we can be paying for a service that we are not being provided. u. Co-Ed Schedule For some teams in Coed Division 4, there is more than a month between their second last and last game. Bobbi will talk to Morgan and will see if this gap can be lessened. This will be done by the end of next week. v. Referees shortening games Both Jason and Ray have experienced ref’s shortening games without telling the teams. Bobbi will email the referees about communicating with teams when they are needing to shorten halves or the half-time break.
