Cal South District Commissioners – Board Members: Derek Barraza (President). Derek provided a brief summary of some of the recent problems with a new group attempting to form a new club in Southern . The group is using the name FC Bayern Munich GPS. There has been quite a bit of misrepresentation by the new group and some CORIS System problems. The system problems have been resolved.

There was a lively and occasionally intense conversation regarding the lack of not just timely, but any response to member inquiries to the Cal South Office. Some wondered why action has not been taken by the Cal South Board to correct or replace the CEO. An example is the status of the Birth Year 2011 players. After many inquiries by multiple Clubs, no response has been received as to 2011’s being included in competitive play for 2018 or not. Problems with Cal South Board members were also a topic of discussion. They include two recent resignations and an investigation of a Vice Presidents behavior and possible conflict of interest. Barca Cantera stated the late billing of a $1000 fine caused by a former coach continued to remain an open item due to no response received from the Cal South office.
