B. League Reports –

a. Kingco – Kingco is learning lessons on how to be a multi-classification league and how to best operate. It is a work in progress. Gill started a project to come up with a more consistent tournament price and pass document. Gill asked about the age of Sr. Citizens – 60 for Kingco, 65 for Sea-King, ?? for WIAA. Gill will find out and we will try to be consistent. Next, Gill attempted to define passes of all types and pass lists. Gill will run another copy and email it to us for a final review.

b. Metro – Craig Smith, Seattle Times, came to the league meeting today so the league could thank him for his service to the schools. Metro is concerned with the Quad game times and Title IX issues. There are concerns though over crowds leaving after the boys game and before the girls game when they play late. Trying to figure out how to respond to that.

c. Emerald City – Two schools have opted to play boys soccer in the spring next year - University Prep & Seattle Academy.

d. SeaTac – Questions about the inconsistency in travel and assigning fees. Questions about how Life Christian qualifies for the SeaTac tournament and the tri-district tournament. Recommend that we follow the WIAA rule. Noticing the decline of female participation in many of our sports. Summit will most likely not exist as a high school next year.

C. Annual Calendar Order – Not in budget for next year.

D. Winter/Spring District Tournaments Dates, Sites & Managers
