Good entries into the competitions thank you to competition secretary Patsy Phillips. The league flourish despite the change of league secretary mid-season, thanks go to Gill Edge-Downing for stepping in. Once again a very successful charity night much thanks to Sue Cork for organising it all once again. Molly
discussed the possibility of Sue stepping down, Sue wasn’t sure she may continue with it. ( Fran Robinson offered to help Sue with next charity event so she would be able to take over if ever needed ). Molly also offered to take over if no one else would, as the charity night is now a very important part if our league and needs to continue. Thanks go to the treasurer for all her hard work this season.

Runaround Cup.
Where will the cup start off if the present holders Drake Manor don’t enter a team- It was decided that the fairest way would be to make a draw at the first meeting pre-season.
New Perpetual's.
It was decided that the new perpetual's bought to replace the Captains Cup and Runners Up were disappointing it was agreed to replace these perpetual’s and use the ones bought this year to replace another perpetual in twelve months time.
Amendments to Rules.
Please find attached new amended rules. New and amended rules are highlighted
Matters Arising. None
Any Other Business.
A, Presentation. Discussed and noted that people left the last presentation night really early with some people even failing to turn up. It was agreed that all captains were to return to their teams for ideas and to bring suggestions to the next meeting on a way forward with presentation evening.
B, Finals. It was mentioned that finals singles, captains etc, should be played where everyone is able to see and offer support to the finalists, it was also suggested that the singles should be the last finals played on finals night. These matters were agreed upon and will happen in the future.
C, Players Short. The question raised by Ruth Brighton from the last meeting was discussed, whether or not you should ring the opposing team if you are going to be a player short. This topic was talked about hearing all arguments for and against. It was noted that if both teams went a player short and drew it would result in both teams only getting 4 points each that’s a possibility of losing 2 points every time this happened. So it was decided to leave things how they are and captains don’t have to ring the opposing team to tell them if they are a player short.
D, Thank You. Sue Cork read and passed to the secretary a card and thank you letter from this years charity beneficiaries Paul Lewis and Family.
E, Web Site. The present league members were asked if they would like a discussion board added to the leagues web site everyone agreed. Deborah to make one available.
F, Inter League Charity Night. It was suggested that an inter league charity night of some kind to be held
between Callington and Gunnislake District Ladies Darts League and ourselves. Everyone agreed on the initial idea Deborah to talk to the other league Secretary to come up with an idea to present at the next Meeting.
G, Thank You Gifts. Molly informed everyone that we bought thank you gifts for both Pasty Phillips and Sam Allen for all their time and dedication to our league. Molly to deliver gifts.
