REPORT FROM THE BOARD:

President: No Update

Treasurer: No Update

Vice President: Talked about making all teams rebranded as “Bears” and looking to update logos etc. There is a parent who may be able to help us with that. Recommended to have him come in to talk to the group and find out what we would need and what it would cost. Everyone needs to be in better attendance at meetings so that we can all be on the same page with decisions and go forward. Discussion about accountability and how we can all ensure that the program overall runs well, not just sport by sport. Further discussion about getting uniforms through the same place.

Fields & Facilities: No updates

Website & Fundraising: - Make sure pages are updated, basketball needs to update end of season. Blue Sombrero – a similar to league athletics, sponsored by Dicks, and spirit wear 7% could come back to the league. There is an issue of platforms not being compatible. More information is needed to see if this would be something we could do.

Football – JMFA has a new President. Football board looking for a few people for positions. Lineman coach from Valor will be working with us to have a camp at BCHS, and may include speakers, etc, as well as help with our current camp. JMFA issued a new rule that all teams within an organization has to have the same uniform. Fees will have to be raised to cover costs of all new uniforms. There are a couple of new coaches at BCHS and they would like to get more involved in the junior program.

Flag football – Having a hard time getting coaches, and keeping the program going. Had to cancel an entire team, and now with 1st grade tackle available, we may only have one team. Will have to be more proactive, and work on communication to get more players. Claude said that we would be allowed to have our flier in the carosel in the K8. Jeffco in general has had a hard time getting tournaments organized and having referees available. Casey suggested reaching out to other areas in Denver. Another option would be to get Flag under the football umbrella.

Soccer – Last weekend was the start of rec, hoping for better weather this weekend. 279 registered kids. Lost our field at Carmody to Rush. Schaefer is working for now, although there has been some activity due to Clement being under construction.
