Meeting commenced at 5:15 pm.

1. Field concerns
	
	-The drop off on Field 1 behind the infield is a concern.
	
		-Lori will look into some options for fixing the problem and then it will be decided what action to take.

	-There are many rocks on Field 1, but they will diminish each time the field is prepared.

2. Roster moves

	-The time it takes to get new players onto rosters was discussed.

		-It was agreed that the committee needs to meet once a week instead of every 2 weeks. 

3. The Coed Division time limit was discussed.

	-Lori questioned whether the bottom of the current inning if the game reaches the time limit and the home team is winning.

		-The first tie-breaker is head to head games and the second is head to head runs scored.

		-This season all Coed teams play each opponent an odd number of times, so the second tie-breaker is not needed. 
		 Therefore the bottom half of innings do not need to be played if the home team is winning when the time limit 
		 is reached. 

		-The rule will be looked into further during the off season.

4. The sign program was discussed.

	-Lori already has some interested businesses, but we need to sell as many signs as possible.

5. Suspensions from last year.

	-Lori motioned that the 2 suspensions that were for 1 year + 6 games should be reduced to 1 year.

	-Danny seconded and the the motion passed 6-0.

6. Research Results

	-Research results is overmatched in the Coed A Division. 

	-After the Board Meeting, emails were exchanged and a vote was held to drop Research Results to the Coed B Division, 	 which passed.

	-Ryan has reworked both Coed division schedules.

Meeting adjourned at 6:20 pm.
