As elected officials by the membership one would hope that each club's president would be privy to all the information at which point each club who has an elected president should be able to provide its membership with the information. Thus each club can and must understand the repercusion of the hearing on their program.
I do not know if this situation actually occurs....
What if Team A in club X which happens to be in the border of their district has 55% of their players reside from the other district. This means they could not field a team? The players could not play because the closest in district club is 1 hr away? What about out of state players? What if discoveries fields a team of mostly NC players, is that considered out of district?
Now these rules are being enforced, why did it take NECSA or anyone else for that matter to bring up the obvious to a body whose only job is to make sure there is a level playing field and rules are followed (could care less volunteer or paid)?. Why did they not act before when everyone and their brother new what was going on? Someone approved the Bylaws for Bridge when they were submitted... To the point of all clubs not providing ALL the services as required by the SCYSA bylaws why aren't they also "punished"?
Please understand that I have no feelings one way or the other over CESA or no CESA. I will say however that in this day of specialization there is a clear need (in my mind) for the midlands to have levels of paly clubs or offerings. You can no longer be evrything to everyone, you cannot succeed this way.
Lastly to all REC, classic and challenge U10 to U14.... IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT STATE CUP WILL NOT BE IN GREENVILLE THIS APRIL/MAY!!!!
