# Business arising from the minutes 1. League organisers manual (Stew/Tim) Manual is to be given to Joe to read and contribute anything to, before being tried out on a new organiser, possibly in spring league. 2. Summer League - Final report + financials (Stew/Tim) Minor financials still being sorted out, Stew needs to provide recepits to Shavawn for prize purchases etc. 3. Autumn League: How is it going? (Joe/Stew) Going well at the moment, but it's early days yet. A little hurt but low attendance occasionally, we'll see how it goes. 4. League trophies? (Jemery) Jemery raised the issue the team trophies, we briefly discussed the idea of individual trophies. Joe volunteered to investigate costs of such, and $100 expenditure was approved to be spent on total prizes for autumn league. 5. Winter Indoor League: planning + venue (Joe) Still looking at venue, but it's looking unlikely to be anywhere other than Hobart College. Joe to determine dates late. 6. Spring League planning: venue? (Jeff) Having discussions about Sandown, it would be ideal. Tim is going to follow it up by organising a meeting with a representative from Hobart City Council. 7. Two-Hat VII: venue and date? (Jemery/Dave) There is pressure to change the date, due to venue availability and other factors. However, the proposed date is definitely preferable to us, with respect to the nation Ultimate calendar. Will look at other venue options allowing us to keep that date. 8. Monday night pickup in April (Matt) We wish to extend an official TUA thankyou to Matt Smith who organised these monday night games. Given that he was running off donations, there's a chance matt was out of pocket from this. Joe will talk to him and find this out, and if he did make a loss, we will re-imburse him. 9. AFDA business (Jemery - Memorandum of Understanding) (I took no notes of this. Either it got missed or it was quick and I wasn't paying attention) 10. Nats 2005: how did it go? (Mike) It went well. There's not much more to say. The analysis meeting was productive too, of which a full report will be generated for those looking for more information on the Tiggers. 11. Mixed Nats 2005 (Shavawn) Shavawn is confident of sending a team to Adelaide, though there were questions raised about how many females she will be able to get. Shavawn herself is unsure if she will be able to attend. 12. OSR grant: (Shavawn - spending progress?) We've spent some of it, but we've still got more up the sleeve. This will become more useful closer to the tassie two-hat. 13. Strategic Plan - progress (Tim) None. 14. Sponsorship - any issues? (Tim) None. 15. Launceston/Burnie group - progress (Tim) No Progress. 16. Youth co-ordinator's report (Joe) We discussed the idea of getting Ash Button to pick up on a team for the National Youth Champtions, but we decided it was too close to do proper fundraising. However, there is a youth development selection camp in January, which will be more beneficial. Hopefully there will be teams from Friends' and Gielston Bay in winter league, which will be great for development. Joe expressed his target to have a seperate Youth League by Spring, 2006. 17. Tassie discs (Shavawn - have we reordered yet?) Yes 18. AFDA coaching program (Mike - any news?) No news from mike. We came back to this issue later in the meeting though and it was decided that next time there is a coaching session in Melbourne, TUA will pay for Joe Boyer to attend the session. Jemery will contact Piers for more details. 19. TUC report (Jeff/Shavawn) There was talk of swapping some people around to mix up teams, given that The Dark Side hasn't won a game yet. Joe clarified that the Dark Side have been hard in training, and we should have a couple more chances before being written off. 20. National Ultimate Frisbee League: 2006? (Mike/Shavawn) Tassie won't be sending a team, but various people may pick up, as they did in 2005. We'll see what develops closer to the time. 21. Women's development (Shavawn - any news?) None. 22. Tas Uni report (Shavawn/Mike - anything to report?) Nothing 23. CSIRO/Uni Challenge (new name?) If the IT sector is going to a team, which will warrant a new name, it may not be possible to have a game during lunch time anymore. Maybe after work, 5:00 on a friday? IT will discuss it amongst themselves, (Joe volunteered to get the ball rolling) and work out what they can or can't do. 24. Tasmanian Individual Championships (Joe) No development. 25. Grant opportunities: Sportscover (Mike) We didn't get the first round, but automatically go through to the second. 26. Southern Regional Championships 2006 (Joe) Discussion on whether we want to host the southern regional championships, of which no decision was made. We agreed to wait 6 months or so, see what the community in Hobart is like when we need to make a decision. We get automatic qualification next year, so do we want to waste a home ground advantage when it's not necessary. Alternatively, if we do hose regionals, is it possible to send two teams to nats? 27. Uni Games (Shavawn) Gauging interest at the moment. No firm plans one way or the other, but looking unlikely we will send a team. # Financial report (Shavawn - do we have any money?) including expenditure to approve: Report is attached. 1. Reimbursement of Autumn league expenses? Waiting on Stew to produce receipts. 2. Authorise AFDA fee payments from Summer and Autumn leagues? Authorised. 3. Any Other Expenditure $100 on prize money for winter league was authorised. Expenditure on Field hire for autumn league was authorised. # Other business There was discussion of the Tiggers team in 2006, with respect to the World Clubs. No decisions were formalised, it was decided to discuss it at the next meeting, where Mike would be present. # Next meeting 7th July, Shipwrights Arms, 5:00
