Fair Play Committee General Meeting
Nov. 4, 2007
Present: Tom Goodwin, Craig Barnes, Jeremy Harris, Andrew Marriot, Geoff McPeek, Jack Mazeika, Priscilla Yu, Heather Cunningham, Mike Mazeika, Dan Hickox
- The Fair Play Committee so far has been a reactive committee administering suspensions on behalf of the league. This will continue more or less as it has been with improvements made as we go along.
- This year we need to add proactive elements to the committee.
- One proactive element will be for the teams to elect a player to receive a 'fair player award' that will be handed out by the Fair Play Committee. A sub-committee was struck to work on this project. The chair of the sub-committee is Heather Cunningham. Mike, Priscilla, and Dan volunteered to help and Heather is looking for more volunteers.
- Another proactive element that was discussed was game reports filled out by the teams after each game. Jeremy is going to write a proposal asking the GM's if there is interest in this. Another sub-committee would need to be formed if there is sufficient interest.
- The Fair Play Committee and referees are asked why certain players who show consistent poor behaviour are playing in this league. Currently we have no way to answer these queries. The game reports were suggested as a way to help answer these questions. Also it was suggested that the GM's look to the referees for their input. It was noted that the referees already have a verbal list of players who are problematic. Craig asked that the teams decide if they want referees input and how they would like to do it. Craig also asked why the GM's are not dealing with these players as it is ultimately the responsibility of the GM's to have positive teams? Geoff volunteered to write a proposal asking the GM's how they want to deal with players who consistently take away from the positive nature of the league.
Actions:
1) Fair Player Award working group formed with the goal of handing out the first annual awards in the 2007-2008 season.
2) Ask the GM's about their interest in game reports.
3) Ask the GM's about dealing with players who consistently take away from the positive nature of the league.
