The cost will be $75 per team and will include NSA team registration. Teams planning to play in Metro Girls Softball in 2010 will be need to be insured in accordance with the policy limits defined in this 2010 insurance plan. The coverages are as follows:

$3,000,000 General liability (each occurence)

Umpire Escrow Refunds have been mailed/distributed
All Metro Coaches - 2009 teams

Your umpire escrow deposits (refunds) for the 2009 season have been mailed, or were given to team representatives at the Sept. 30 meeting. If your team was fined for a cancelled game, or two, you will receive a partial refund. In a few cases teams will not receive any refund due to multiple cancellations. Those should not be a surprise to the few teams involved in multiple cancelled games.

Checks were endorsed to the person, or organization that submitted payment and if mailed those checks were mailed to the person, or organization's address that was on the check used for payment of 2009 league fees.

This concludes the financial transactions for the 2009 season.
Any questions can be directed to the division coordinators - 10U - Dennis Ferris, 12U - Jim Stoyle, 16U & 18U - Bruce Pfalzer

Thanks for a great season, hope to see everyone at our January (1st Wednesday) 2010 meeting.

Insurance updates will be forthcoming in November once team insurance rates for 2010 have been established by the national organizations
