Unlike some leagues where all they want is money for registration fees, with nothing or very little in return, this new league is professionally run, with honest individuals who have your best interest in mind.
Other leagues request funds, fail to pass out any form of constitution and are run by a small group of individuals who want control and really – could care less about you or the sport, which is sad.
I am told that some leagues and/or Associations have individual(s) in charge that are paid with your money for doing what?
If someone is in charge of a league, yes expenses should be paid, possibly payment for those attending meetings for coffee (no drinks), but that’s all.
You get to play a sport that gives you far more, such as Insurance coverage where each provinces and/or leagues deals directly with the insurance broker to obtain the lowest prices for medical and dental insurance coverage inclusive of liability insurance while playing the sport with NO MARK-UP TO BE INCLUDED.
If you know of a league that offers this way, let me know and I can and will do a story on the running of a league with your money.
It’s your sport and it should be run by the players, not any executive as they should only offer guidance to all teams and this must be so as to head in the right direction, not in some off-beat manner, where they could care less about you – the members!
This new league offers far more for you and your teams and you should really think about moving over to they, for various reasons.
This is just in from the NBHA and I wanted to share it with you, so you know up front what is going on, with no hidden agenda.
