Upper Division: Peter: Season going great so far, Playoffs will be November 16/17 weekend, with lead in games for U16 during the week. Medals ordered for UD play and play through. Will be moving games from Rosemead park due to set up difficulties. Referee Report: Scott We have played 60 games, 183 referee slots and 3 open so far this season. Problems have been at Rosemead Park and Live Oak with getting coverage. Average.8 cautions per game 7 send offs, DOGSO being more of a problem than usual. Seems to be a trend, when player is sent off, player feels they have license to then berate the referee and other players as they leave. No feedback on the referees via Area 1C website! Assessment: Please 2 weeks notice for Advanced assessment and 3 weeks for National. Please ask early as it is hard to find an assessor. Advanced class being held October 3/5 th in Upland, Fri and Sunday. 908 hosting a regional class Bi-lingual, Mon & Tuesday. No coach and spectator warnings or ejections which is a good thing. 214 not stepping up to help with referee assignments.

3 Financial Report: Frank See attached financial statements Will invoice for Area player fees on Oct 31 st, Jane to pull numbers, so make sure you process your drops by then. Interlocking: Issues with 908 not covering their referee assignments, Dave spoken to coaches to make sure it does not continue to happen. Lisa says Shiverly is working well for U10 and U12 interlocking. Had problem with Region 2 teams not showing up. At Madrid, goals need to be pulled out of the bin and then put away at last game, ordered some bags for goals to make this easier. No more referee abuse. 98 asks that last game of day at Oak Ave school, pack up goals and vacate field as soon as possible, as custodian is waiting to lock up. 60 has no issues Teams not showing with enough players and coming late, especially in GU14. Area Report: Jane We will be hosting the roadshow again this year, Section wanted to move, but a lot of surrounding Areas like it in Arcadia. Have talked to Frances about a different fee for Area 1C participants. Need to discuss further. Term expirations; Please make sure your position is advertised and elections are done 3 months ahead of time, so that new RCs can be elected and approved in good time. Please make sure your Accounts payable with National stay under 60 days past due. Region 214 and Area 1C hit it this month. Ouch RAP- still have 40 outstanding. All-stars: Section still trying to find a location for all-stars as Riverside not available. Regional Reports; Please find attached those regions that reported this week. Thank you.

4 Additional Comments: Aldo mentions that they have really had to make a stand on no-exceptions within the region especially as they are so large. Discussion on playing up and who to allow and not. Who makes that decision? New Business: Marco brought to everyone s attention about Vicki, long time volunteer and Area and Section level. Lisa made motion: Donate money to help off set medical expenses in the amount of $2000. Aldo seconded, all approved. Thank you Marco.
