A big “Thank You”
to everyone for your patience as I muddled through this season as your
Registrar! There were some new procedures, forms, and communication
tools that were created and put into place this year. From the feedback
I received, it appears that they were useful. There are more projects
on the table for next season that will hopefully provide even more improvements
in the registration process for all members.
Total member registration has increased by
approximately 6% from the 2002 season. The junior boys membership
registration had an overwhelming increase—with an 85% gain. The junior
girls membership also increased significantly—with a 10% gain. The
female adult membership has remained steady, but there was a slight decrease
of 2% in the men’s adult membership.
Total team registrations increased by 5%.
Although the overall adult team totals remained approximately the same,
the junior girls and boys team registrations combined increased by approximately
11%. (Please note that some junior teams register in adult divisions,
and, therefore, the team registration numbers—per division—may be slightly
skewed from 2002 to 2003.)
Conglomerate (age group) team totals had a
slight decrease. Last season, there were 15 teams with this season’s
total of 12.
