**2024-25 LEAGUE REGISTRATIONS - MON 20th MAY 2024**

Thank you to all those who attended the meeting on the 20th May, to register teams for the 2024/25 season, which once again went very fluently, due in the main to the cooperation of all those who attended.

On further reflection since the meeting, 88 teams - the same number which started and finished the season just gone, should once again compete in the 2024/25 league set up, and NOT 89 as was announced on the night of the meeting.
One team has gone back to their previous home club, but the other team from that club who played from there this season just gone, has not re-registered for next season!
The addition of a new team covers this net loss - WELCOME the Hollygarth Club in Ilkley to the LBSO.

League Secretary Paul Grimes, will now soon start work on formulating the 2024/25 league structure, and will no doubt keep everybody informed, but only when the right time arises.
In the meantime, could you all be patient and wait for Paul to update the website when he is ready to do so - thank you!

Details of the main presentation night have been provided opposite by Mark Ball / Paul Marlow, who are once again liaising with South Leeds Conservative about the event.

The return of Annual Trophies for engraving once again went very well indeed - so sincere thanks from myself to everybody concerned with this.

In accordance with the LBSO Rules, notice is now given with regards to the AGM, which is to be held this year on MONDAY 9th SEPTEMBER 2024 at SOUTH LEEDS CONS CLUB, as announced at the meeting on the 20th May.
Further details regarding the AGM, including how to make RULE CHANGES, will be posted on the website and circulated in due course.
A copy of the current LBSO Rules can be found on the website - go to "About Us / Documents".

Finally, after the AGM last September, another announcement was made at this meeting, for somebody to join us on the Management Committee.
Anybody interested should contact Bob Patterson via the email on the website, or by email address bob.patterson622@virginmedia.com, for further details about what the 'job' entails.
