The Listed Personnel were asked to come before the board to explain why they missed game assignments:

Ceasar Perry: (not present) Was scheduled for 2 games and did not confirm with his crew chief, nor did he show for the game.  Emails and phone calls were made and he did not answer either. Liese made a motion that he is temporarily suspended until he can come before the board and explain why he missed his assignments, Davis seconded, all in favor, motion passed.  TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED FROM GAME ASSIGNMENTS UNTIL HE CAN ADVISE HIS STATUS IN FRONT OF THE BOARD.

Pete Walker: (present) Pete admitted he made a mistake and it was his error. It was a miscommunication or misunderstanding. Pete advised he needed to change or update his contact information on the web site. He did advise he showed up, but since his crew chief couldn’t get a hold of him another official was assigned to the game. Motion was made by Liese that there was a breakdown in communication and that he needs to update his contact information on the web, if it occurs again there will be consequences, seconded by Bowen, all in favor, motion passed. WARNING – AND ADVISED TO UPDATE HIS CONTACT INFORMATION ON THE WEBSITE.

Bob (RJ) Liberti: (present) RJ advised that he was found out late in the day that he would be late due to an emergency, he called his referee’s cell phone however, it was possibly too late because it was right before the game. He also called another crew member to let the crew chief know he would be late. He eventually showed up at the second play of the second half. He was told that not only should he call his crew chief but he should also call Tye Sager.  Baker made a motion to accept Liberti’s explanation and the board would watch for any other incidents in the future, seconded by Bowen, all in favor, motion passed. BOARD ACCEPTED LIBERTI’S EXPLAINATION.

New Business:

Craven advised that he will be faxing in the form on 9/9/08 that alerts the FHSAA that we will be hosting a field clinic on May 15th & 16th, 2009. USA Football and NASO are being asked to attend too. He also advised that the BCAA is supporting us on this and it will follow the same format that we used when we had the last one at Cypress Bay HS.
