  1. Sea-King District 2 Executive Board President Report:  Gill James

A.     Annual Eligibility Report  - Mike Ritch
Mike gave his final eligibility report to the WIAA and reported to the SeaKing Board on the annual hearings.  There were a total of 39 Visa/Transfer-non participant cases, not requiring hearings, and 106 cases requiring hearings.  Trends that Mike pointed out include the growing number of Season Limitation cases coming before the board.  Transfers are down from previous years – possibly indicating more “legal” changes of residence taking place.  There will be a meeting on Wednesday at the WIAA for all the eligibility chairs from throughout the state to review data and determine how we can more effectively do our jobs with eligibility cases.  31 of our cases that were denied were appealed to the WIAA.  About 50% of those cases were overturned; in most cases the reversal was a result of new information that was presented to the WIAA hearing officer that we did not hear at the time of our decision.

B.     Violations - League actions were approved.

C.     Spring Rep. Assembly Review
1.  Craig reviewed the results of the spring amendments. 
2.  Question…Can the districts come to agreement to do no scheduling till Jan. 1 so that we all have time to set up leagues and make determinations based on the new classification cycle?  Or could the WIAA put a moratorium on scheduling until we have firm numbers and know who goes to which classification? 
3.  Tom will try to put together a power point with some of the possible options

D.     Presentation of 2005-2006 Sea-King Budget – Board reviewed the budget proposal and will vote on it at the June meeting.
