SO HOW MANY PREMIER PLAYERS CAN YOU HAVE ON YOUR TEAM THIS YR? 8 OR 9

Please attend the meeting to discuss, as this has been brought to my attention on several occasions. Such is the issue I deal with annually. After several years of saying "no", and facing players or team reps that stated they'd like to participate in multiple weeknight leagues, the decision (and votes by team managers at the meetings) was made to allow players to compete in more than one weeknight league.....

By the way, "Premier" players is a relative term.....last year, for example, at the Spring League meeting there were 11 teams in the Premier league. One dropped before the season began....By the time the season ended, the Premier League, in our opinion, had "officially" 5 teams that completed their season in a competitive manner, that is, by being eliminated or not qualifying for playoffs. Unfortunately, teams and players either quit, withdrew, did not show up, or decided to call an end to things....so goes the state of competition, softball and the spirit of the game in what appeared to be a promising season.

I am much more optimistic about teams in ALL the leagues in 2012, and would like to thank teams and managers for their comments concerning the program here.
