Most teams are not in compliance with the team account policies. Once a month send the following to the league CPA, Director of Operations, and Treasurer: 1. Check Register 2. Expense/Reimbursement form with receipts 3. Deposit Slip All checks must be signed by two people: a team signer and a board member. If your team signer is also a board member they may not sign twice. Finalizing the tax return, expect to file within the next two weeks. Most select teams have met the referee payment requirement for Fall and State Cup. Compared to last fiscal year income from player registration, fund raising, and donations are down. However, expenses are also significantly down, most notably field maintenance and DOC. Volunteer refunds for coaches and team managers have been sent out. Refunds will go back to the credit card or bank account used for registration. Staff members must have completed the background check to be elligible for a refund. Aproximately $13k in the General Fund is set aside for select teams (mostly referee fees). Uncleared check balance is $8,428.32. Financial Aid and Refund policies need to be reworked. I recommend that for future budgets we set aside money specifically for Finanacial Aid. Parliamentarian / PAD Chair - Bob Wheeler: Select: 1 RED Card for receiving second caution in a match Recreation: Suspension due to playing an unregistered player in a match Positive Coaching Alliance: 42 coaches completed the course.
