Call to Order:  Dan K. called the meeting to order at 6:05pm.

Roll Call :  Present –  Christine Lawicki, Steve Langley, Steve Schaffer, Dan Kumetat, Cathy Ivazes, Karen Mikan, Sophia Meyer, Jeff Moore, Dan Vielhauer

Acceptance of Minutes:  Steve L moved to accept the minutes.  Cathy 2nd.  Approved

Correspondence:  Steve L reported a very complimentary phone conversation with a coach who commented on the strength of our organization.

Treasurer Report:  None.  Metro teams need to set up team accounts, however they can’t use the Tax ID number to do that. 

Committee Reports:

District VI meeting: Shinguards need to be of adequate size for the wearer.  This will be enforced this year.

Metro -  We have 10 metro teams this year (an 11th team was subsequently added, U12 girls).

Tournament -  We have 6 U14 boys’ applications, 4 U14 girls’ and 2 U16 girls’.  At the tournament meeting, we were discouraged from planning Class I tournaments.  They’re too hard to fill.  Next year we’re going to try to do a girl’s tournament and a boy’s tournament.  We can make money off the registration. 

Coaching- The E clinic was successful with 14 attendees.  There are 18 signed up for the F clinic in June.  Another F will be added in July.  We are getting coaching volunteers to help at registration. 

Referee- We’re still waiting to hear when the assignor class will be.  We’re going to send out informational postcards to all existing referees.  25 people have signed up for the may course already. 

Fields – Steve S has the permits in hand.  Most schools need a permit for now until Aug 1, and then another one from Aug 1 through the end of the season.

Registration – General discussion on supplies/signs we need for the upcoming registration.

New Business – We have no contract for Sierra College yet.  Dan V will meet with Sandy Tuesday morning.  We can’t allow kids that aren’t registered with GCYSL to use the trainers because of insurance issues.  Mike Voss has requested to use Ready Springs on Mon & Wed through the summer for a high school boys clinic.  The proposal is to register them to GCYSL for a summer league to cover the insurance.

Meeting adjourned.
