New Business

a. 2006 Metro Season – Ron Wall presented on the Metro league. They want to be sure that games are not cancelled needlessly. He will personally follow up on cancellations. All rostered coaches will be required to be a certified referee, to ensure that coaches know the rules and to reduce the number of send-offs and create a “walk in my shoes” perspective. Ron can be reached at ron@allthatsoccer.com.

b. Fund Raising – Hilary Barton has graciously accepted the challenge of coordinating fund raising activities for BUSC. She talked about the need to get fund raising goals and develop a budget. Possible ideas include a roller skate night, selling Rooks tickets, donations, sponsors.

c. Challenger Camp – Andy and Jamie came up from Sacramento to talk about the camps. BUSC will offer both individual and team camp, focusing on technical skills or team dynamics. They can tailor the program depending on our coaches’ needs.

d. Tony Longueira talked about the Rooks’ “kicking for Kids’ program and camp, offering free tickets. The schedules will be coming out soon. BUSC may sell Rooks tickets for a 50% profit. We talked about having another BUSC night and possibly having it more than one night. The Rooks’ attendance has been dwindling over the past few years and they are working to increase it.

e. There is an “E” Clinic in Oroville on April 21, and an “F” clinic at the end of the summer. A Goal keeper clinic will be Friday and Saturday.

Good of the game
