Website Updates

The Rules Page has been updated.  Note that rules 5, 6, 10, 17 and 23 have been updated.  Changes to rules are underlined, however the changes to rule 23 were to remove instances were a scratch on the 8 was a loss of game, so in that case there is nothing to underline.  The downloadable word doc of the rules has been updated as well.

The Past Seasons section has been updated with the 2013-2014 Season.

The Who Owes The League $ list has been reset.

The Officers have been updated on the Officers page.

The Scoresheet available for download on the Payout Scales and Scoresheets page has been updated to the new version.

The Captain’s List is now current.

The Schedules are now current.

End of Season Party

The end of season party will be held at Gabe’s Bar & Grill:  2965 s. Sepulveda blvd, LA 90025 on Saturday, May 31 at 2pm

__________

There will be:

a meeting for the general membership

Prize Money Payouts

Elections of officers and grievance committee

Tournament

__________

Additionally, as per a decision at the captains meeting, votes will be held on the following rule changes:

—

Current Rules (slop) vs. Call Pocket

If adopted, the Call Pocket rule will be worded as such –  In Call Pocket, obvious balls and pockets do not have to be indicated. It is the opponent’s responsibility to ask which ball and pocket if he is unsure of the shot. Bank shots and combination shots are not considered obvious, and care should be taken in calling both the object ball and the intended pocket. When calling the shot, it is NEVER necessary to indicate details such as the number of cushions, banks, kisses, caroms, etc. Any balls pocketed on a foul remain pocketed, regardless of whether they belong to the shooter or the opponent.

—

Scratch On The Break – In The Kitchen (current rules) or Ball In Hand

This rule change would be straight forward, no other change necessary.

—

Scratch while shooting the 8 ball – Loss Of Game (current rules) vs. Ball In Hand

This would only apply to pocketing the cue ball while shooting the 8 ball.  If the 8 is pocketed in the wrong pocket, or the cue and 8 go down in the same shot, it would still be a loss of game.  This rule would only effect a shot where, when a player is on the 8 ball, he does not sink the 8 ball, but does sink the cue ball.

—

These votes will take place via a paper ballet.  Your captains will be emailed the ballot in advance, however, voting ballots will be on hand at the event in case not everybody is able to print theirs out.

I’m missing the score sheet from the Week 25 match between 90 West 2 and 90 West 3 (90 West 2 is responsible for turning in the sheet.) If missing sheets are not turned in by the end of the season, the visiting team will lose all 16 games and will be responsible for all money for that week.

Our rules state: 31. The score sheet & money being turned in on time is vital for proper accounting purposes. Teams that fail to turn in the score sheet & the money on time will be FINED accordingly. 1st offense ($10 fine), 2nd offense ($20 fine), 3rd offense ($20 and forfeiture of 5 games)

I have not enforced this rule, but with all the late score sheets this year (this is the worst year ever, by far) I’m quite tempted.

————————————————

Tuesday: Scarlet Lady owes $65 Cozy Inn owes $50 90 West 1 owes $29 90 West 4 owes $25 Speakeasy 2 owes $65

Wednesday: 90 West 2 Owes $30 90 West 3 Owes $5

Remember that if the season ends before your dues are paid, your team will be fined equal to the amount that you owe.  That fine, coupled with the money owed, will be taken out of your teams winnings at the end of season party.

Website Being Updated for 2013-2014 Season

Here you’ll find info on what’s been updated for the new season. If it isn’t listed here as having been updated, it is either blank or contains last year’s info.

It might be a week or so before the schedule and first week’s scores are uploaded to the website.  Because this season requires 3 rounds of play and 4 rounds of play for Tuesday and Wednesday respectively, and the software we use to input scores is only designed to handle 2 rounds of play, a work around must be conceived, which might cause a delay in the initial posting of stats and other info.

The Fines, Fees, and Payouts link has not changed, but it is a good idea to give it a read to remind yourselves what fees are owed and when they should be paid.

The Captain’s List has been updated for the new season. If you are on that list and you are not the captain of your team, please email mike at djmichaelbasic@gmail.com and let me know who your team’s captain is, as well as their phone number (cell preferred) and email address.

There have been no rule changes so the Rules link is still valid.

The Grievance Committee page has been updated.

The 2012 Season has been moved into the archives, which can be found by following the Past Seasons link.

The Payout Scale link has been updated to include a payout scale for 7 teams.

There are no new Locations to add so this link is still valid.

The Bullpen link has now been updated.  If you know anyone who would like to be added to the list to sub on Tuesday, Wednesday, or both, please have them email me with their name and phone number (djmichaelbasic@gmail.com.)

Week 17 Results Have Been Posted

Apologies for the late update.  I was out of town most of last week and unable to pick up the sheets until last night.

Reminder – We are in the last 6 weeks of the season now, therefor, rule 21 in our rulebook applies:

21. No new players can be added during the last 6 weeks of the league season . (Only substitutes listed on the official team roster, submitted by the season’s deadline, or ‘bull pen’ can play). Exceptions can be made only in extenuating circumstances, (i.e. Family emergency) to be judged for validity by the Rules/Grievance Committee.
