EOUA-08-66 - Busy Week-end - Starting Tonight - Sept. 05

Original sent 08/09/05 5:22 PM

Good Evening [Morning] Folks.....

Sorry for the late notice on a few of these points but like some [many] of you I will be out on the diamond myself tonight (Friday that is)....

1) Keep in mind that many of our leagues are heavy into the play-off season and they have 'chosen' to wave their mercy and/or time limit rule. Also confirm what the rule is on a tie after the last inning...ties are OK or we must determine a winner. If so, when do we start the international tie-breaker - in the 8th as per Softball Canada or ..later ? Important discussion at the PRE_GAME meeting !!!

2) If we experience rain or a wet field (tail-end of Hurricane Gustaf) - DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO GET THE GAME IN - delay the start time - ALLOW THE TEAMS to PREPARE / CLEAN-UP the FIELD.

3) Some of the Tournaments this week-end have special 'operating rules' rather than the regular league rules .... AGAIN discuss at the PRE-GAME meeting. Be lenient (not over officious on those leagues that normally do not use umpires (i.e. Hi-Tech and Nortel). In other words use COMMON SENSE and GOOD JUDGEMENT !!

4) Special request from the 'one of our SP Leagues' - REMEMBER to enforce the Zero Tolerance on Jewelry and check for Illegal Bats. Carry over from 2007


5) And finally for your own personal interest DO NOT forget to submit your PAYSHEETS for August ... don't forget to mark 'extra innings'. However, since we [George] is experiencing a flurry of activities both this week-end and well into next week....because we have another busy schedule next week-end. George's focus will be on finalizing assignments rather than processing your cheque and also keep in mind that we are finalizing our final invoices with the leagues to 'jive' with your paysheets (I.E extra innings, rain-outs, a single assignment turns into two assignments because of an 'if necessary'). I trust you appreciate the extra effort that is required at this time of year to balance the books.

6) Availability for Sept 12-14 - another BUSY week-end - check with George to confirm [update] your availability and pick-up your assignments. Please be pro-active.

7) Stay tuned for announcements about the year-end banquet...tentative date is Saturday Oct. 18th

Have a great week-end and thanks for helping us out this week-end....greatly appreciated !!

As you may or may not know we are holding a Special Olympics slo pitch tournament on Sept. 20th. I am approaching SPN umpires here for the tournament on Sept. 20th. due to a shortage of carded umps from Softball Canada locally.I am not sure of what type of response I will get as the individual I contacted did not sound too encouraging, but I am hoping. I currently have 7 fast pitch umpires who will help me out, but of this group only 3 have ever done slo-pitch. I don't know if the fast pitch umpires will take part because of the insurance issues with not being carded for slo pitch. In case I run short of umpires I was wondering if you could contact some slo pitch umpires from Ottawa to see if they could help me out if necessary. I would cover their transportation costs here but there is no game fee being given out. This is being done for a charitable organization and as such we will not be charging for games. Lunch will be provided for this fun 1 day event. If anybody has a strong desire to come down I know I can fit them in.

Thanks for your time.

Ladies and Gents,

If you submitted Paysheets last month (July) - your cheque is in George's Mailbox - ready for pick-up. If your paysheet has not been submitted expect further delays.
When submitting your paysheets please ensure to mark 'extra innings' when [where] applicable. ALSO inform George within 24 hours following the game - so that he can update league invoices accordingly and ensure the league is billed appropriately
If you have not already done so, please submit your availability for September and PLEASE (PLEASE) keep in mind that the two week-ends following the long week-end are extremely busy (Sept. 5-7 and Sept. 12-14) so do what ever you can to make yourself available.
