Re: Men moving to Summer? Love the idea! If it works in every other province it will work in BC. Living in Calgary now, i see how the leagues are run here. Nobody complains about summer ball and during the winter guys play indoor or take the winter off. Lower levels play during the week which you could also do in Vanc, lots of guys wouldn't mind having the weekend off. In Alberta Major they play on weekends so teams can travel from Calgary to Edmonton and play 2 games in one weekend to limit cost and travel, it's just the accepted way of doing things.
I also think you would get more support from fans, nicer weather....
The big gain is that BC would play a continuous season going to Nationals. Right now BC is always behind the 8-ball with teams like the Callies here in Alberta going to Nationals playing their best. |
