Womens participation clearified

    It has come to my attention that the policy of allowing women  to join the men's league Thursday night  has replaced Women's volleyball Sat. Morning,  this is NOT the case.
    The policy  to allow women to join the men was  to make it easier for the men's teams to  have enough players. Now this is not  coed  volleyball it is women playing Men's volleyball, (Like Wednesday night practices)  Men's net height, play the back wall, power volleyball. It is not for all women, especially 7 month pregnant novice players.
    There is a fear by some that all the elite women  players would abandon the women's league and join the men.  I hope that those who do play for the men on Thursday also play Sat. Morning with their women's  teams.  Thanks

       Decisions  made at the meeting
1)  Because of other  interests  there does  not  appear to be enough interest for  young men/young women's  volleyball this year.  We even kicked around the idea of having coed but that  didn't  seem to work either.  Let me know if  that changes.

    Refresher on   SAMS  league  rules:
1)   You only need 2 players  to have an official game (not forfeit).

2)    A  team with two forfeits is out of the tournament.

3)   A  team  can show up with as few as one player,  recruit  players from other teams,  thus it is an automatic loss but not a forfeit.

4)   There must  be at least an equal number of Baptized members as non-members.

5)  Members from wards which do not have teams are free to play  for another team, as one of their members.

6)   A  sibling  or someone living in the household as a Baptized member is counted as a member  for  sports purposes.

7)  This is new,  Females  may play on the men's  teams.   This is not coed  volleyball it is women playing
men's volleyball.   (similar  to Wed. Night practice)  Their status is the same  as men,  Female Baptized members count as  members   and Non-members as non-members. Women  may play in the tournament. 

8)   You may touch  the net, except the top of the net, or  if touching the net interferes with  the opponents chance to play the ball.

9)   Match's  are played to 25, win by  two or the first team to 30.  Two out of three  sets  to win the match.  

10) The  team receiving to start a  set,  must rotate  before they serve.

Good luck

Golf tournament summary

Hi all,
     The Golf tournament went very well although it was not well attended,  not sure if it coincided with the state fair, the treat of rain, or whatever it was. We will have to pick a better date next year, there were several players there for the first time and every one seemed to have a ball. The course was very challenging and fun, with dear, and wild turkeys showing up here and there, sadly our group, the last 4 some of our group got behind. Some of the slowest walkers I have ever seen, it took 3 and a half hours to play the front 9 behind them, so we finished an hour behind the other players. So many of the players had already left before the one last contest for a valuable prize, the one putt only contest won by Singles ward Bishop Bob Haskins ,  he won a nice tee shirt that says "Jesus loves you, but I am his favorite"
     Take care.
