Michael Abbott mentioned that both ADO shoots are in the Spring. He mentioned that in order to get an '01 Average Award, 25 games need to be played. He suggested to amend this. His thought was to have 2 games per night of each '01 and/or Cricket to get an award. This would be a minimum play to win this award. This should start with January's play and the rule can be found on the web site (Rule 5-C).

New Business:
Discussion on a new rule - a
Team must have a paid sponsor and 3 paid players in order to be put on the
schedule for the season. This payment is needed no later than one week
prior to the printing of the Schedule.
New Player Incentive - There was a proposal for new players from Vickie Weber. She passed around her idea that states "The economy is not good right now and many players have had to make many changes do to jobs being lost, pay cuts, etc. I have come up with an idea to help those players and build our League. Bring in new players and get $10.00 off your dues per player. Bring in a whole new team and get your dues paid for. A new team consists of 5 players (4 players and you). A new player is a player that has not shot in our League before or a player that has been gone 5 years or more." There was some discussion and it was left for us to think about.
Rule Change - Discussion switched to the possible change of Rule 10-D. The change would be The player has the option to play 3 games or sit out when others on the team are playing. This change gives the player the power, not the Captain. This discussion was tabled.
Youth League Report:
Chaos in the 3rd
Division. There may only be 2 teams when all is said and done. The
1st and 2nd Divisions are doing great. They have a solid Board which will
be re-elected mid year. The Youth League asks to implement a Facebook page
for darts. After some discussion the Adult Board decided that the NODA
does not authorize the use of any of its proprietary information on Social
Networking without the approval of NODA. The Adult Board agreed and it was
approved.
The next meeting will be held at Airway Lanes on November 3, 2009.

It was reported by Vickie that Airway may be bought out and no longer exist as we know it by May of 2010. Her information came from Gary Benning. Airway will do their best to stand by the teams (Bowling and Dart) that play out of Airway.
Youth League Report by Vickie Weber. The stats for the Youth League are now being done by Joe and the kids love it! The players are doing great with large outs and ins (such as a 104 in). The League had their first Board meeting and opted to change some rules. They spoke about fundraisers being bottle drives and car washes (where the girls have to wear no less than a one piece bathing suit). Also, Kettering High School as been approached to possibly make Steel Tip Darts a school sport. Someone will come out to view the process next week.
Youth ADO is very expensive but has been looked into.
Jeff Chapel did purchase a Laminator.
Dad's Deli of Airway Lanes will take care of any issues with the catering with our next banquet. All financial issues have been resolved.

There was a request from Airway to please leave 3 tables for the soft tip dart league to use on Monday nights as they start later than NODA. We all understood.
Joe mentioned that the Lutz Curry has only 2 weeks that it can be scheduled. It is possible that there can be some double playing to speed up the process and have the third round played early on the day of the End of the Year Banquet.
Rich brought up a proposal to have the League go to a one point per game system. There was some discussion. No changes made at this time.
on 1/13/09 there was a special meeting to discuss the behavior of ??. The Board and ?? listened to all the complaints from those concerned. After all was said, ?? wholeheartedly apologized to the Board and the League, promising that these things will not happen again.
After he left the Board discussed in detail what the outcome should be. The results were that ?? would be suspended from the Youth League until January 2010 and from the Adult League until May 34, 2009 (the day after our Banquet).
At this meeting (2/4/09) an apology letter from ?? was read. Rich proposed to bring him back into the Adult League on probation. A letter was sent dated 2/7/09 from Lynn McClelland stating the following: ??, this is a confirmation letter to inform you of the meeting on March 3, 2009 at Airway Lanes Lounge at 7:30 pm.
