The grass field is not in the greatest shape and for that reason the A Cup will be played on the best field available. My preference would have been grass, but as a group we (the VISL) decided that the best teams should play on the best surface.

Regarding the two teams travelling to Victoria, a bit late to complain as it was decided long ago that all semi finals would be played in one place. Talk to your executive about the reasons why, or better still get involved when decisions are made.

Regs, you are right the blaming of BCSA for all does not make sense. The choice of fields is a decision by the local league, in this case VISL.
