| Posted By: Dissapointed Posted On: Aug 20th, 2013 Views: 1831 | Disappointment So I'm assuming league fees will be cheaper next season to the absence of incentives that used to make this league so appealing.. Such as its weekly write ups, pictures, and overall strong quality organization. Just a thought Highest regards... Mr. Dissapointed |
| Posted By: Mike Posted On: Aug 20th, 2013 Views: 1813 | RE: Disappointment The message board has been extremely quiet last season and half. The quality of football on the field has been good through all three divisions however. Scott and crew have continued to do great job running the league in my humble opinion. It would be nice for more chatter on the message board though. |
| Posted By: Observer Posted On: Aug 21st, 2013 Views: 1796 | RE: Disappointment How about some parity which is definitely not happening at the moment or has been for the last several years. |
| Posted By: Scott Posted On: Aug 21st, 2013 Views: 1788 | RE: Disappointment First off I dont understand the parity comment at all. In the B division all the teams are almost identical in records and in the A division all the teams have played each other very close all season long. The C division has a bit of a split but that is to be expected when you have new teams. I will concede that things such as pictures have not been as present this year but the reason for the pictures in the past was good fortune to have two excellent photographers offer their services at no cost so we are not saving any money by not having pictures. As for the write-ups they are very time consuming and believe it or not every member of the executive has a full time job and a family as well as other volunteer committments and as such finding the hours in the week to complete the weekly writeups does elude us some weeks. Again this is done completely free of charge by a volunteer so having or not having this will again not affect league fees. If you look around the league fees for this league are at or below any other league that offers officials, a free banquet, year end prizes, field permits, etc. Also in regards to the weekly writeups anyone is able to post a weekly writeup on this message board. Feel free to give it a go and post it. Would be great to have a read of it. With all that said there have been some events that we would like to have (ie. bringing back the all-star game/skills competition, mid season party, kick-off tournament) but just haven't been able to find the time to organize. My sincerest apologies if you feel the level of excellence you have come to expect for the Oshawa Touch Football League is starting to slip. If you would like to discuss it with me and let me know what you would like to see and your ideas to implement these activities please feel free to call me (905)213-3183 or email me at scott@oshawafootball.com. I would be more than happy to discuss the league with you. Thanks, Scott |

From a football point of view, the league is very competitive and well run. From my perspective ,we are getting good value for the money. |
| Posted By: Scott Posted On: Aug 21st, 2013 Views: 1763 | RE: Disappointment Also I just checked the schedule and a Week in review write-up has been done for every week this year (other than tournament weekends due to the low number of games). Buzz has done an awesome job with the weekly writeups getting them done promptly and not missing a single week. Great job Buzz and keep up the great work. Scott |
| Posted By: Chris B Posted On: Sep 5th, 2013 Views: 1642 | RE: Disappointment Seriously If you have an issue call Scott or leave your real name. I hate anonymous posts whining about things. All the bells and whistles such as photos were people giving up their time to do. Fees don't go to cover that. |
| Posted By: Scott Posted On: Sep 10th, 2013 Views: 1618 | RE: Disappointment Thanks Chris. That was kind of the message i was trying to get across but I have to be all diplomatic about it :). I appreciate the support. In all seriousness though if you have issues or ideas or just want to discuss the league please don't hesitate to call me or email me. Can't continue to grow without constructive critism. Thanks, Scott |
