Spring League 2009, first details

Hi All

Spring League is scheduled to start on Tuesday 6th October at the Dickson Playing Fields. This season, the ACTUA Committee has agreed to try a series of changes to the format of how spring league is conducted. The background to this decision is that we have had to turn away teams in recent leagues due to a lack of space and the proposed changes will hopefully resolve that problem. The format for Spring League will be as follows:

Social Division 3

Division 3 will be at 6.30pm as per previous years. There will not be any significant change. Games will finish promptly at 7.40pm. Any Division 3 team that participated in Autumn League is welcome to apply to participate in the upcoming Division 3 league. New Division 3 teams are welcome to apply but will be subject to the approval of the LOG (League Organiser Guy / Gal).

Social Division 2

Division 2 will be at 7.50pm which is a significant change from previous years. Any Division 2 team that participated in Autumn League that wants to play in this league must register for the 7.50pm time slot. This will be strictly enforced and the rebadging of a team to circumvent the change in time slot will not be permitted (i.e. a team called the Apples with the majority of the players being from last seasons Bananas Team will not be allowed entry into Division 3).

Division 2 players who cannot play in the later time slot may register in Division 3 as individual players without a team and we will endeavour to find you a team to play on.


Division 1

There will be no Intermediate / Division 1 league this season due to reduced interest and other ultimate commitments. With a season off it will hopefully revitalise people's interests by summer.


League Organiser

As yet we do not have a league organiser. Without a league organiser there will be no league. If you are interested in being the LOG or being a LOG helper (i.e. someone who doesn't want to be the boss but is happy to help mark the fields or collect scores) can you please let me know. The LOG is gets paid a honorarium.


League Registration Site

Details of the registration site will be forwarded later this week.
