A Lil Note from your Statistician:
To the Captains: Can you please make sure that I have your players full names (first name AND last name) since some
teams have taken some new players under their wings, which we are grateful. Also, if you are in need of players, please contact me as we have a couple new players that would like to join our league.
Thank you for submitting your scoresheets via text since it makes it easier to enter them.
Enjoy!

PLAY-OFFS
Current language:
Section I: ELIGIBILITY (UNLESS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THESE BY BYLAWS)
F. The top sixteen (16) women individuals based upon percentages with a minimum of 55% games played as a registered member during the current season will constitute the women's playoff bracket.
1) Women are only able to play in either the Women’s competition or the Open Individuals, but can not play in both. (Fall 2014).
Proposed Language:
The top sixteen (16) women individuals based upon percentages with a minimum of 55% games played “as a woman” and as a registered member during the current season will constitute the Women’s playoff bracket.
Explanation of motion: I would like to add the words "as a woman" due to our league and other leagues who have men that lives their life and play "as a woman" but has not necessarily had the surgery.
Motion #2: Brought by Allen Montalbano
“I Allen Montalbano: move that the motion set forth by Member Jon Bourgault at the last board meeting August 18, 2016 regarding the changing of eligibility for the Last Chance Qualifier. Be restored to the original eligibility requirements as set forth at the formation of said tournament and that the original name of this tournament revert back to The Rising Star and be brought back to the membership for vote at the next Board/ members meeting”.
Motion #3: Brought by Allen Montalbano
“I Allen Montalbano: move to institute a hard copy of weekly score sheets be submitted via photograph, scanned document, or hard copy delivery to a BOG member along with any electronic submissions of score sheets for the purpose of comparison and verification of electronic web site submissions. Said hard copy score sheets will be posted on the league website under an individual tab appropriately named and made accessible to all members during respective seasons and will after said seasons then will be permanently archived for future reference and remain accessible to members of the Los Angeles Pool League.
Motion #4: Brought by Allen Montalbano
Further “I Allen Montalbano: move to institute a minimum number of voting members present or quorum at business meetings of the board of governors in order to conduct business. This number shall be 30 eligible members not counting those present acting as board members for a total of 37 eligible voting members (although votes from the board will be counted and considered valid) or 20% of registered membership whichever is less. Further I move that should a motion be brought before the board of governors at a business meeting and a voting quorum is not present said motion will be tabled by the board until the soonest possible meeting of the board of governors where a voting quorum is present. Further I move that in the event of an emergency requiring an immediate vote a tentative vote of attending members may be taken as a temporary measure to then be voted on by a voting quorum at the soonest possible meeting of the board of governors where a voting quorum is present.” (In the case of an emergency vote the board of governors will be held harmless providing the board acted in good faith for the betterment of the Los Angeles Pool League). The decision to act in an emergency situation shall be considered a onetime/special event and shall not set a president for actions to be taken by a quorumless meeting)”
