5-4 to Jets last night. Matthews pings one off the left upright and out in the last minute to fail to get the equalizer!

Pretty good game too. Both teams had two full lines, and were starting to find it easier to get pucks in the top pockets around the boards. Aaron on the other hand was really hard to score on last night.

Yeah, the stuff I send you is non-typoed crap.

People keep talking in the changing rooms about our possibly maybe will be here soon coach.

Do we have an ETA? I think everyone is looking forward to actually seeing her on the ice!

5 played for SK8, 4 played for the Jets. Jets took it… 7-2? We had one goalie, who played at one end so both teams had him for half the game (split 3rd period). Hinson refereed.

If we had another goalie and 3 more players so it was full lines, it would have been better, but it was still interesting – vast open spaces and the passing at times was really good (and at times really bad!).

I checked with Phil. Offside rule is definitely being played for the summer league. Got called once from memory.

We also had the slightly amusing situation of Deb Handcock being first person to an icing, but unable to touch the puck because it was a two line pass. She waited for Mallory to arrive (on the other team) and as soon as Mallory touched it, Deb started fighting for the puck.

I think the other ‘policy’ of sorts would be that one person does the emails at one time. That way, as long as that person has an uptodate contact list, we’re fine. Any additions need to go to that person.

If another person takes over contacting people, then they get that contact list transferred. It would make sense to me for the person that adds people to a register of players – draft lists, team lists etc, to also keep the ldif file up to date, and do all the contacting.

I’m going to try and work on a list of ‘not too serious’ job descriptions for next year. The three things that team managers do, the things the dihl head referee does, the things that the dihl chairperson does, the dihl secretary etc. It’ll be good as we’re roping these people in to make it clear what’s expected of them.

In terms of uploading the file, it’s not secure at all, but I suspect you’ve fudged it enough for it to work. The only people who know where the file is, are people you give the address to, people who can access this forum, people who run the server, and the server itself.

As long as no one on that list link to it in a public place that google can get to (google can’t get to this forum) you should be safe. The thing I’d be wary of is any search facility on the server or on the web site which doesn’t use an outside search source. Any search which is run by the actual server will be able to find that file in a second.

Having said that, the impacts of having everyone’s email addresses added to a spam harvester is kinda high, and I’d rather go the method of having one person have the master list, and email it around people when it’s updated. Some smart file naming using versions numbers or dates would avoid the problem.

A question about these dunedinicehockey.hellyer.kiwi email addresses. Do they have a spam and virus filter on the server side? Because they’re going to be useless within a couple of months if they don’t.

Wow, I got 3246. I win!

Yes I agree that our current system, or lack of it, runs the risk of having out of date files etc.

I wouldn’t use an excel spreadsheet though, I’d use an address book format which can be transferred between machines and software. That way we can not only have lists of the current X teams in the current competition, but we can also have fuller lists of ‘all ice hockey’ and so forth for advertising upcoming competitions etc.

An address book could include physical addresses, phone numbers, and probably use extra fields for some other stuff – grades etc.
