Action Items:- Discussed coaching situation and how to proceed with getting the ball rolling. The idea was brought up that maybe we can subsidize a coach with a monthly fee to teach at the club.
- James acquired 60 Olympic-style shirts from Andre and a motion was made by Bob for the club to purchase these shirts from James for $10 each and to add the club logo to the shirts for an additional $4 a shirt. Mark seconded the motion and it was passed by the majority of the Board.
- The club has the opportunity to purchase “tournaments used” Joola tables, from Andre, for the price of $500 a table. James will try to negotiate the price down and will get back to the Board members on his success.
- The Baja team hasn’t been to the club for many months. We discussed ways to make it more attractive for them to participate in the Thursday Round Robin tournaments, but it was mentioned that one of the reasons they no longer attend was that our tournament no longer challenges their players.
- We tabled the discussion on increasing membership dues and also who, if anyone, should be exempt from paying dues.
