VA YBOA: My Site News
*************IMPORTANT PLEASE READ****************ROSTER RULE CHANGE
At the Coaches Meetings of 01/26/08 - 01/27/08 the following rule change was voted and passed to read as follows:
No deletions from roster after team plays in 1st qualifier
No additions to roster after team plays in 2nd qualifier
'TIS THE SEASON!!!
YBOA will be holding it's organizational meetings at the following locations:
Saturday - 01/26/08 - 1:00 P.M. Sunday - 01/27/08 - 1:00 P.M.
Lone Star Restaurant H.T. Layman Hall
2051 Plank Road 1529 Williamson Road
Fredericksburg, VA 22401 Roanoke, VA 24012
(540) 374-1565 (540) 344-3218
It is important that you attend this meeting so that you are aware of the changes being made by YBOA. There is a major problem that has been occurring for the past few years that has been upsetting a number of teams that will be addressed at this meeting. The problem is, some teams have either been "NO SHOWS" or want to change to another Tournament after committing to play in a certain Tournament. The changes are mainly due to another organization constantly changing their tournament dates. I and a number of teams feel that it is not fair that we are constnatly being required to adjust our schedules when the problem was not created by YBOA. So that this does not happen in the future, the following procedue will occur:
1. There will be no refunds or transfers to another tournament once the tournament fee is received.
2. Any team that is a "NO SHOW" without prior notification will be suspended from future participation for the remainder of the season.
So, I urge you, if there is the least bit of concern that the YBOA schedule might conflict with the schedule of another organization - MAKE YOUR DECISION AS TO WHERE YOU WANT TO PLAY BEFORE SENDING IN YOUR ENTRY FEE!!!!
Other important topics of discussion will be:
1. Who qualifies for D1 vs D11?
2. How can a player play in 2 age divisions?
3. What is the new age cut-off date for girls?
4. What has changed in the Running Clock Rule?
5. How many teams from Eastern Regional qulify for Nationals?
The following tournament dates are tentative dates and are subject to change:
