Division Schedules & Initial Rosters Posted
David Race
May 4, 2008
chedules for
the Summer 2008 are now posted. The rosters generated from this breakdown are also available. There is a total of 54 teams: 6 Monday, 12 Tuesday, 16 Wednesday & 20 Thursday. All of the LATE SIGNUP teams have been included and ALL divisions have an even number of teams (Yeah, NO BYEs!) Both A1 Divisions are the result of combining of A1, A2 & B1 teams; consequently, the BOD decided to suspend ratings for these divisions.
Two new bars have been added this season: M. T. Rockers (formerly Pardners) in Hawks Nest Plaza and 1/2 Traks Sports Bar (formerly Ryan Andrews) on Mexico Road. Both are sponsoring two teams.

he Ratings Committee (League Vice President & Chair Tambi Ermeling, John Maginnis, Dru Atteberry, Jack Murphy, David Race) met April 27th to assign ratings to those members who played multiple nights in different divisions OR played only in Doubles (Open and/or Mixed) during the Winter 2008 Season. The records of approximately 60 members were reviewed. The Board of Directors approved the Ratings Committee recommendations in advance and will review them at their next meeting. You can view the updated ratings here. Also, members are reminded that they have the right to appeal their rating to the BOD at any time.
Member Appeals Suspension
David Race
April 24, 2008
he Board of Directors met last night to resolve a protest filed by a Tuesday B3 Blue team of their match of April 15th. It then considered an appeal of his suspension from the Tuesday A1 player suspended on April 20th (see next item below; note, in the item below, the original suspension was incorrectly reported). As a result of the appeal, the BOD voted to reduce the suspension from the remainder of this season and the next two seasons, to the remainder of this season and the Summer 2008 season and probation for the Fall 2008 season. In addition, due to his complicity, the team Captain was placed on probation for the remainder of this season and the Summer 2008 season.
Two Members Suspended; Another Being Investigated
David Race
April 20, 2008
t today's Board of Directors meeting, the Board addressed three "personal conduct" issues. All three involved members accused of throwing their darts at something OTHER than the dartboard. It has always been the Board of Directors position that the ONLY acceptable destination of a thrown dart (or darts) is the dartboard!
The first incident involved a member of a Thursday B3 team playing at South 94 Bistro on April 17th throwing all three of his darts over his shoulder, in the direction opposite from the dartboard, after losing the game. Fortunately for the League (and the bar!) no patrons were injured. After a long, and at times contentious, discussion, the BOD voted to suspend this player for the remainder of this season and two additional years (6 seasons) until the Summer 2010 season.
The second incident involved a member of a Tuesday A1 team playing at Mac's C'mon Inn on April 1st throwing all three of his darts at the wall as he stormed out the door, angry over an April Fool's joke. After a much shorter discussion, the BOD voted to suspend this player for the remainder of this season and one additional year (3 seasons) until the Summer 2009 season.
The third incident involved a member of a Tusesday B3 Blue team playing at Crazy Horse Saloon on April 1st throwing all three of his darts across the room. After a short discussion, the BOD realized that more information was needed and voted to investigate further. No action was taken at this time against the player.
In the first two cases, the Board's gave serious consideration to also taking action against the Captain's of the teams involved, since, per Rules and Regulations, Section 2(j), the Captain is ...responsible for the smooth running of each match, and any disputes that arise during the course of play must be settled in private conference by the Captains only. After some debate, it was decided that the Captain's had acted in accordance with League Rules & Regulations and no action was taken against them.
Both members will be notified of the Board's action, both verbally and in writing, and advised of their right to submit a request for reinstatement in accordance with Rules and Regulations, Section 6(g).

All subscribers to the list will receive the message and can reply to the whole group, but the discussion will stay "in the family" since only league members are allowed to join the list.
All of the Board of Directors who have email will be members of the list, so any message sent to the list will be seen by the members of the Board as well as every other list member.
To join the list, click the button below. Each request must be approved by a moderator to ensure that only league members join. After you have been approved, you will receive a "welcome" email. League membership is the only requirement - all league members who request list membership will be approved.
