End of Season!!

We want to thank all players for a great season and hope y’all are looking forward to next season, as much as we are!!

Fall season will be starting quickly, with only a 5-6 week break so we can have at least 15 weeks play before Christmas break. Rosters are being accepted now. Secure your sponsor and Captain. Additional players can always be added at a later date so get rosters in ASAP please! Enjoy the break guys!

Late Envelopes

We are making a change in the Late Envelope Penalty rule due to a significant increase of infractions. There have been 7 late envelopes in 9 weeks of play.

The following changes will be implemented this week, Apr 15:

• 1st late day – minus 20 points

• 2nd late day and each day thereafter – minus 10 points

• Double penalty points will be deducted after each additional infraction -- (2nd infraction = minus 40/20 points, 3rd infraction = minus 80/40 points, etc)

There will be no exceptions, no grace periods.

Points will be deducted from total team points at end of season.

Captain of winning team is still responsible for dropping off envelope.

Envelopes due by noon Sat.

Fall Season

We have made the decision to NOT attempt a short season at this time. We have looked at a lot of angles and still come up with “not now”.

Some criteria we considered include:

  1. Logistics of starting and ending season

  2. Financial considerations for league and players

  3. BCA requirements and guidelines

Our goal is to get started again in early 2021. Watch for announcements on the website and Facebook possibly as soon as Dec.

Fall Season on Hold

We WILL be back! For now we wait with positive thoughts and prayers for this "craziness!

Deadline for rosters is still Monday Jun 29. All submitted rosters will have a secured spot in the new season.

Stay safe! See you soon!

Roster Deadline

Deadline for Roster entry is next Monday, June 29, 2020. Please submit your roster online. Those of you who have already submitted a roster are good--no need to re-enter. Rosters can be updated anytime by texting Delyse -- 806-433-4272.

We are anticipating the start date to be around July 16, just depends on number of teams. Currently we have 15 teams returning from last season and one new team.

We can't wait!! See you soon!

Let’s go!!

Bars are open at 50% and pool is back on!! We are starting plans for our new extended Fall Season. If you know your team is returning, you can submit your roster now on the Website and update player list at a later date. When we have a known number of teams and available sponsors, we can look at forming divisions and weeks we can play. Keep the faith, things are looking up and we hope we can be there as a League to be a part of it.

End of Season due to COVID-19 Pandemic

 We have made the decision to close out this season of Spring 2020 after 8 weeks of play.  This has not been an easy decision by any means.  We looked at several different scenarios—all of which had numerous unpredictable variables.  We concluded that in the best interest of ALL our players we will end the season early.

Things we considered in making our decision:

  • “Shelter-in-Place” executive order extended thru Apr 30 with no guarantee of when restrictions will be lifted, adding to the possibility of a longer wait to restart Season.

  • Less than 50% of season complete – 8 weeks played/10 weeks remain.  Each team played only 8 of 9 possible opponents. 

  • Unknown whether all 20 teams would return with an available roster of min. 5 players

  • Extending Spring 2020 will jeopardize the opportunity to start Fall 2020 earlier as voted on in Captains Mtg in January----(giving us 2 “messed up” seasons instead of just 1).

Payout will be based on Point Money and Special Awards (TRs/BRs) only. 

  • Point Money will be $0.26/player in both divisions. 

  • Special Awards remains $2.00/special. 

Refund

  • 50% of all paid Sponsor Fees will be refunded back to the Sponsors.

  • Sanction Fees paid by players who only played 1 week in Spring 2020 will be refunded.

Captains will be notified when Payout is complete with instructions for picking up Team envelope

Thanks in advance for your support! We appreciate each and every one of you and MISS you all!  We look forward to “making it all up to you” with a slightly longer fall schedule.

STAY SAFE!!
