Joe,
As far as I know we would be looking to get it up and running by the start of June and run it for two months.
As far as I know there is interest from about 6 teams
Milanos
Meadows
Campbeltown Boys Under 19s
Team of auld flas (Archie Mitchell etc)
Team of young flas (Davie G, Tommy Finn etc)
and another team of young flas (Darren Kelly and the Rancher etc
)
However, I think there is room for another couple of teams - the likes of the Emergency Services and perhpas a pub team.
As I mentioned before I don't want to get involved in the running of this as I'll be busy enough come June
but am interested in playing and I said at the Sports Council meeting I would try and raise the profile of this. Ranald has been very helpful so far and it wouldn't be hard to get organised if we have a member from each team involved in the Admin and Setup of the league. I suppose for this year the emphasis would be in getting the league started up - I have just realised that 8 teams playing each other once would be 36 games in total so it would have to be started pretty sharp in June (I suppose it could go over into August?). I suppose that gives each team a a game a week playing either Wed, Fri or Sunday and will allow for cancellations etc. There are trophies available to play for - ones from the past and Davie Martin kindly said to Ranald that there is some money available from a former league which could go to setting the league up. (I think about 100 pounds or so)
Would be really good to get this up and running again - get us men away from the kitchen sink for a change!
Perhaps a meeting should be called?
