ok. i apologize for the meurs info. can't believe everything you hear.
for the record, i used to be involved many years ago. i still get recognized now and then and i get into conversations with folks all over the place. im way too old and happily retired to get involved again, plus i think the mrs would have a stroke. i did my time. im happy to sit in the stands and watch when i get the chance.
all i'm saying is i don't think it's good for the league to have such large amounts of cash flowing around. and yes, you can deny it or call me a liar, but its happening. yes, it would be nice if teams all ran like clinton, but not everybody has the resources. whether its manpower, or sheer sponsorship wealth or just a small pool of local players to pull from. its not happening.
instead of folks wanting to ramp up and compete with clinton, i hear a lot of the opposite. tired and fed up with trying to recruit against the money. the league was what, 20-25 teams at its peak? now it's 14 and i bet by this time next year its 11 or 12.
have a good summer everyone. i suspect there will be lots to talk about in the fall.

On the subject of a 50/50 license, you can only get one if all the funds go to an under 18 not for profit organization or a registered charity. Adult not-for profit organizations cannot get a lottery license.
The blue Jays, Leafs, etc., all the 50/50 go to charities.

it's hardly a secret Clinton is handsomely compensating players. What I want to know is how do you know? Seaforth pays for goals....10 = $500 Tillsonburg pays their former Jr B player Ripley pays Meurs Minto pays their players to live in cottages in Chatsworth in the winter with no heat or water. Seriously, who really cares? If your organization and team can't get sponsors or fans that is on you. Clinton's last game had a 50-50 of $2476 which is more than most teams made all season. Instead of blaming Clinton, be like Clinton and get fans and sponsors. Stanton I'm not sure who told you Seaforth pays for goals but that's completely false
