AGM Rule Change Proposals

Rule change proposal from Steve Quinn - Revise maximum start to 50.

Rule change proposals from Joe Witkiewicz:

1. Review of clause 4(e) of the leagues rules concerning postponement of matches. I think the 3 day timescale is too onerous. Also I don’t think it was fair that we had to replay a match earlier in the season whereas Haydock reader got an auto 6-0 win - made a big difference to final standings and team payouts 
2. Introduction of an ‘elite’ player category whereby if you reach a certain handicap, you then give a 50/55 start as opposed to a current cap of 40
3. Blind picks for league matches which is currently adopted in team KO
4. Greater transparency of financials especially KO competition winnings - example of there being around £420 in individuals KO from entry fees and sponsorship yet the split in winnings didn’t seem to reflect that?
5. Should be payouts in all KO comps for semi-finalists - think it’s unfair that some people reffing got paid for doing a semi final yet players didn’t get anything. I reffed a few and would be more than happy having a couple of pints rather than money.
6. Talk of maybe doing a 6 red KO competition but there’s quite a few comps as it is but could scrap the over 55s as I didn’t feel there was many entries in that.
