NCSL Board Meeting Minutes

Marshall High School – Michael Hall

 

 

Ray Greenberg called the meeting to order at 7:30 PM.

 

Roll call indicated the following Clubs were not in attendance: Annandale Boys & Girls Club, Arundel Soccer Club, Cugini Soccer Club, and Northern Virginia Soccer Club.

 

Ray requested if there were no corrections or changes to the January 11, 2010 minutes that the minutes be approved.  Minutes approved by unanimous consent.

 

Maryland Commissioner - Claire Filemyr - PCA - 120 coaches have attended the two workshops held by the NCSL.  The required New Team Administrator meeting was well attended, all but two managers attended.  Those teams have been made notified that they failed to attend.

 

Virginia Commissioner - Maureen Dalbec – no report. 

 

Maryland & Virginia Registrars -Mike Basileo & Lisa Wilson - no report

 

Rules & Discipline - Barry Finkelstein – The spring sit-out list has been posted on the web site, please review and remind your teams to review as well.  You will notice the blue game card is a little different.   We have eliminated who scored the goal and the score at half time. We have added the responsibilities of the TSL. 

 

Majority of the NCSL games are played on Sundays using Saturday for make up games.  Emails usually begin coming in on Sunday night.  There can be 300 matches in a weekend.   When Barry gets a complaint he reaches out to team A and team B and the ref crew.  He will call the Club Rep to get the information from the team.  You can go to the web site to see the sanctions and decisions from last season to get an idea how things were handled last year.  R&D will work out a sanction with  the Club Reps. Once all agree the sanction is an NCSL sanction.  Protests are also listed on the web.

 

NCSL Administrator – Kathleen Session – schedules should be posted.  Three drops occurred after the schedules were pretty much completed.  These drops resulted in 8 games instead of 9 being scheduled for the following age group and division: U12-D6, U13-D6, and U16-D3.   Your packets are here with your game material. Special request and coaching conflicts - several the coaches did not match the contact pages – so unable to meet those requests. There were 112 coaching conflicts submitted – 1,008 games that had to be looked at  - 328 special requests – they were able to work out and also honor 90 % of the special requests.– 99% of  the coaches conflicts were addressed.

 

Secretary – Gina Clapp - reported Bay Shore has been removed as a member of the NCSL for failure to submit teams for league play. 

 

Vice President – Any Schoka - no report

 

President - Ray Greenberg - issue when someone started a Facebook page using our logo.  Notified the individual and he took down the blog immediately.  Ray will be contacting an attorney to copyright the NCSL logo, so in the future we have more leverage in handling these type of situations.

 

WAGS is considering leaving Demosphere and getting another provided.  Ray discussed with Kathleen who is very happy with the Demosphere system and the Executive Committee decided to remain with Demosphere.  WAGS is having more problems than we have. WAGS invited several of us to attend presentations while we were attending the USYSA workshop.   Ray and those in attendance were impressed with what they saw.

 

Ray shared the video that FA is using in England dealing with the Respect program. Claire tied the video in with the NCSL TSL program.
