So with topics pertaining to local football being a bit slow these days perhaps a bit of banter on the upcoming goings on of the FVSL AGM could be discussed..
I'm not looking for campaigning, etc or insight as to who is voting for what, let's just discuss some goings on..
-Kevin Uppal is running against Thomas Mills for President of the league.
-I have heard rumors/hearsay about new cup competitions being talked about (SX cup obviously has to be renamed at minimum as Soccercity is now the sponsor for the league)
-There are some motions being put forward for some constitutional changes or re writes
something about the removal of an appointed treasurer, and the treasurer now being elected and having a vote
am I missing anything? Have other clubs or Indy teams sent info to other clubs and teams via email about motions they are or have put forward also?
As far as voting, the balance of power rests in clubs vs Independent teams... usually teams within the clubs vote as a block if what I'm told is true or has been over history...(it just makes sense tbh)
The number of votes:
LUFC: 14
GEU: 10
PoMo: 8
Peace Arch: 7
North Delta and Poco both with 6
SFC has 5
Aldergrove has 4
Abby has 3
that totals 63 votes out of the 111, and over 50%
I think the league has been running very smoothly over the last few years I have been involved in running a team. We haven't had one incident of a ref no showing, no glitches from the league end on ID cards or paperwork errors. The implementation of the online registration has been awesome, and we are the only league where someone can physically go to the internet and see whom has signed with whom and when... which is great for transparency, but only has benefits to ensure your players aren't lying to you if the other leagues also do the same (The late season rumors and accusations of teams playing players that are also signed in VMSL or BMSA)
Also, a question to the masses: Are minutes of the Executive meetings available anywhere? Can we ask for copies of them?
discuss?
