Treasurer’s Report

BCSSGVA has approximately $4000 in the bank and is expecting the funds from BCSS any day.

Tier Tournaments

All tournament organizers are well on their way and it looks like all tournaments will be very successful. One concern is the "AA" travel arrangements. The Executive, in conjunctions with the tournament organizers are looking at different options for teams.

Team Registration

Joe did not receive any information at this time. It appears that there will not be a lack of teams in any tier.
