Becky Jorgenson of Grace Idaho attended the meeting to discuss having a Pony team join
Chubbuck leagues. It was stated to Mrs. Jorgenson that they would have to provide the Chubbuck
league with a team roster and provide their own uniforms, that the pant color would have to match
Chubbuck league colors. Each player would have a registration fee of$35 which covers the cost
of field insurance and umpires. Grace's team members would also have to follow the official
Pony rules and Chubbuck league bylaws. They would also be required to bring registration fees
and birth certificates prior to season start. Main concerns were that later in the season that they
. would not be able to fill a team or that scheduled games would be missed. Mrs. Jorgensen
. assured the commission that they would be able to fill a team through the season and games
would not be missed. It was stated that games are typically scheduled Monday through Thursday,
that 2 to 3 games would occur each week.
:Commissioners Doug Hensen and Al Neuman were replaced with Gary winters and Bryan
• Hancock. The 5 Mustang coaching spots were filled by: Richard Hagishi, David Georgeson,
Jeremy Underwood, Dave Spillett and Sherman Schmidt as Alternate coach. Brett Gessel and
Rusty Mcwhorter filled the 2 Bronco spots and it was discussed that Brian Cooper, Howard
Blazer or Tony Williams fill the remaining 2 spots left in Pony. It was stated that all coaches and
-commissioners need to be at Cotant park on April 8th to put up fences. Coaches need to have
• parent meeting on April 6' or 7th and have uniform orders in by April 8th and no later.
Jimmy stated that on June 6`11, at least 12 players will be leaving for a Super league event in New
.York. These 12 players will be spread out among the Chubbuck league divisions and that it is
• possible for 2 teams to loose 2 or more players. Super league players leaving will impact the
Mustang teams the most. It was discussed that it is necessary to set in the bylaws that each team
will be capped at having no more than 2 Super league players on their team. It was further noted
that it would be necessary to inform coaches of this prior to the draft. Jimmy stated that he would
get with the Super league and attain a roster to identify the Super league players involved in the
Chubbuck league. It was further stated that teams that had Super league players would have hat
picks added to their teams so that there wouldn't be vacancy positions amongst the team when
they were gone to super league functions. This is necessary because some regular players may be
gone on vacation at the same time of the Super league functions causing severe shortage and
forfeiture of games by teams with Super league and or vacationing players.
Scott Ferro stated that Lithia Dodge donated $3000 to the league. It was discussed how the $3000
be appropriated. The following were discussed:
-Artificial mounds
-Score board
-maintenance on current scoreboards
-new squeegee for fields.
There is a need for 2 scoreboards on the south fields because there currently are none. It was
stated that there is one scoreboard already available at the city and if one was purchased with the
funds from Lithia Dodge that would cover the 2 south fields.
Next meeting will be Tuesday, March 30, 2006 at 7:00 p.m. at Chubbuck City Hall.
Commissioners meeting adjourned at 9:30 p.m.
