1111 <br /> MEMO TO: Parks & Recreation Commission <br /> FROM: Staff <br /> DATE: February 24 , 1982 <br /> SUBJECT: Adult Softball Update <br /> Enclosed is a variety of information regarding our summer adult <br /> softball program. The major reason staff is requesting the Park <br /> Commission to review this material is that it represents a new <br /> policy regarding player eligibility. The two major changes are the <br /> changing of $5. 00 for each player who does not live or work in the <br /> City of Mounds View. Our previous policy allowed players from our <br /> eligible sports community to play in our program without an outside <br /> fee. <br /> The second major change centers around player certification. We <br /> are now requiring that each team that desires to advance on to <br /> state tournament play, certify each player ' s eligibility prior to <br /> the season beginning. <br /> 1110 There are three reasons for this change in policy: <br /> (1) Each of our neighboring communities has had this program <br /> for a number of years except that they charge $10. 00 <br /> instead of $5. 00. <br /> (2) We experienced major problems with player eligibility <br /> during the men ' s competitive playoffs in 1981. <br /> (3) Due to the additional $5, 000. 00 the Council has requested <br /> us to transfer from the recreation activity fund, we are <br /> increasing our fees for almost every program. <br /> Staff will be providing some additional commentary at Thursday ' s <br /> meeting. <br /> BKA/bc <br /> Enclosures <br />
