Message From Brian L. - Red Team Captain to the League Committee Members

Follow up message to League Committee Members:

OK< I'm looking at the responses from my players which I told you would happen and I have to support them. As this will probably be our last year for the league, and I base this on converstions at the Prescott tonight with players from the Sunday Afternoon League who play at Tom Brown on Sundays and work for the City. ie: Steve S.; Graig M. etc. They told me our Leagues will be gone next year as the City is giving all the prime times to minor hockey. This League has also been in operation for a long time.

So, my suggestion is to try and balance the Yellow Team with some good players who will show up, run the add as discussed for outside players and maybe a mix from within when we see what level of player apply and finish on a "HAPPY NOTE AND A PARTY March 31 to celebrate a Great League coming to an end.

Based on conversations at the year end party last year I know the White does not want this, the Black and Red do not want it so lets put the idea away and take another route. I'm open for suggestions but upon thinking further on our "draft" this format will not work as one team could end up with all forwards, no defence or vice versa. Not a whole lot of thought was put into this, the only way to go would have been a full draft.

So I'm looking at it from realty, this is the last year so let end with on a Happy Note and celebrate March 31 to our League.

I'm away for the next two weeks so I'll check my e-mails when I return. No final decision on how we will proceed will be made without my vote or approval by Committee Members.


Brian L.
President
Prescott Hockey League
