:: 2016 Pre-Season Manager's Meeting Recap ::

Manager's Meeting Recap
Below, the following items were covered off at the Manager's Meeting. Check with your team manager if you have any questions that you'd like answered. 

• Teams (confirmation of the returning teams, plus that all teams had sufficient numbers - both total and with girls)
• Schedule/Duties (review of the revamped schedule and the reassignment of duties to even out the game times and duties performed between all teams as best we can)
  
• Equipment (review of bats, purchase plan for bats going forward, balls and the discussion around gold vs gray vs hot dots). No changes planned for 2016. 
• Dates (touched briefly on weekends with no games, special weekends - SPFK, Playoffs, FBL vs Restaurant League competition, etc.)
• Field Preparation (some time before opening weekend plus ongoing through the season and finally before the tournament)
• Web Site (if you're reading this - you've been informed!)
• Roles & Responsibilities (a mini-committee is being formed this year to help with the efforts required and to assist in the work required - kudos to both Kathy and Steph/Francis for their dedicated efforts); for 2016:
• Finance: Stephanie/Francis (thank you)
• Food / Supplies: Jason / Clear (thanks Clear!)
• Libations: Krista / Nick (big thank you)
• SPFK Fundraiser - FBL vs Restaurant (Sunday Funday) League (more details to follow on that and you're manager will be sending out details). Just mark Saturday June 18th on you calendar)

Exhibition Games and Spring Kick Off 

The exhibition schedule is below and we have room for more games (see note below as well). After the games, the plan is to head to the Cove - dirt, grass stains and all - and mingle up with the league, share a few pints and a grab some grub. Appreciate teams are welcome to do whatever they want, but it would be nice to get the league together once before the season starts.
