Season End/Playoffs
This Wednesday will be the last week of the regular season. Please enter scores immediately after the match and drop your scores sheets off at Shenanigans so the playoff schedule can be posted as quickly as possible. If you have any other score sheets from this season please hand them in at Shenanigans too.
The playoffs will begin this Sunday, November 24, at 4pm. Please ensure that the bars you play out of are aware of this and open by 3:30pm at the latest to allow the visiting team their 30 minute warm up time.
If you need to find an alternative venue or play at a different time, please contact the opposing captain as soon as possible and work together to find a viable solution.
This season the playoffs will take a different format for the Championship. The top four teams from each division will advance. The 1st placed team will play 4th and 2nd will play 3rd from their respective division. After Wednesday's matches, each division will be seeded according to regular season rankings. This will determine the semifinal line up with the winner from the top seeded division playing the team from the 4th seeded division and the team from the 2nd seeded division playing the team emerging from the 3rd seeded division.
The Best of the Rest tournament will remain the same as in previous seasons.
Players MUST have played FIVE matches to qualify for the playoffs. To check whether a player has qualified for the playoffs, go to the website and go to STATISTICS>QUALIFIERS.
Any team fielding an ineligible player will be disqualified from the playoffs.

New Executive Committee
- The league will vote for a new executive committee at the banquet on 6 Dec 2013.
- Candidates must stand as a team (President, VP, Treasurer, and Secretary).
- If only one team stands, league members will still be asked to vote.
- If more than one team stands, we will have a brief period of hustings before the vote.
The current executive committee will not be continuing, largely because I'm leaving Korea in December, so the league will need new officers for 2014.
Please notify Alan Green (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) any time before the election — including on the evening of the banquet — if you wish to stand.

Charity Ideas/Bob Denny Sportsmanship Award
With the end of the season looming and the end of this excutive committee's term, we are looking for proposals for a charity to which the proceeds of the 50/50 raffle draws from the last banquet and this one will be donated to.
My proposal is to donate to a charity supporting the victims and recovery efforts in the Philippines following Typhoon Haiyan.
If you have another suggestion for a charity the league could help, please contact a member of the executive committee or post on Off The Break. We are open to all sensible ideas but will not consider proposals to support personal holiday funds.
Voting for the Bob Denny Sportsmanship Award will start from tonight and continue until December 4, the final match date for the Championship and Best of the Rest brackets.
Please take a moment to vote for this award as traditionally numbers are very low. A log in is required to vote, which can be provided by contacting your captain or a member of the executive committee.

Mid-Season Captains Meeting
Thanks to the captains who attended the mid-season meeting and for the feedback and input. The minutes from the meeting are posted in the Information section of the website presently.
Unfortunately Emily Yang has had to step down as secretary. Many thanks for all the hard work she has done for the league this year, and to Jumie Ahn who has agreed to step in as secretary until the end of the season.
The other major decision at the meeting affects the time-out rule. As from this Wednesday (October 2), time-outs may be called by the player shooting or any member of their team. However, if a time-out is called it must be used. The player cannot refuse the time-out and then call time-out later in the game.
For those captains not at the meeting please ensure that your team members are aware of these rule changes.
