Player of the season award
The player of the season was confirmed as Mark Cohen with 5 POD awards. Also with 5 PODs were Dave Cropper and Gordon Bell. This resulted from a proposal that the POD should be awarded on a percentage basis over the year as long as they had played 50% of the games over the season. An alternative proposal was raised that the winner of the POD should be the player with the best percentage of wins over the season. The second proposal was voted down by 11 against and 4 for and the first proposal carried.
Any other business
A debate was raised to discuss the head high rule and a proposal that if the ball comes off the keeper or the goal posts and goes above head high that play continues. This was also carried on the Chairman’s vote and the rules to be amended accordingly.
Another debate was raised as to the positioning of the benches in each corner, a proposal was put to the floor that the benches be removed, this was voted down.
A proposal that the player who was first in the queue should be the referee was discussed and a vote taken. This proposal was also voted down
