Ghosting players
– Lenny mentioned that some teams are still having difficulty fielding 5
players a night. Since it is the end of
the half, it is hoped that those teams can pick up a couple of players for the
second half and we will look at it again.
3.
Player Ratings – Sue
prepared a 20 page extensive statistics sheet which was passed out and
explained. Each team has a two page stat sheet.
Captains were asked to review these stats and bring them to the next
meeting to discuss individual rating changes.
Sue will provide this to the three teams that did not make the meeting. At the January meeting we will set the
handicap for the second half and they will be retroactive to the start of the
second half. At this time ratings will
remain the same until the stats can be reviewed.
The following players were put on the watch list for rating
changes at the last meeting and will specifically be discussed - Micah Mitchell
(Down 5), Russ Mossman (Up 5), Don Demingway (Up 4), Christine DeFrancesco (Up 3),
Dennis Bolduc (Up 4), Mike Manning (up 4).
4. Team handicap was discussed. At the present time handicap is set by
individual game, each team receives points based on the individual game. After much discussion, the handicap will
still be calculated by each individual game and only the difference between
each teams total handicap points will be awarded.
5.
It was suggested
that we go to six games per night. After
some discussion it was decided to remain at 5 games. It is difficult enough for some teams to get
5 players to show up each night so it may be next to impossible to get 6
players to show up.
6.
Next meeting – Cercle
on January 25th at 7 pm.
Respectfully,
Sue Novak
