Business League 2019 – Season Draw
I have found some more refs so A grade teams should be off the hook now. Hopefully all teams will be tolerant towards them as they adjust to the different grades and rules.
Early bird prices have finished now so if you still haven’t paid it is up to $110 until the break and then it will have a late fee attached. All fees should be paid by the Easter break.
Please note there will be a 3 week break as several people have mentioned taking the first week back at school off as it already has a Monday and Thursday (Anzac Day) holiday. This will fit in with our 13 week season too.
Captains/managers can you please ensure your team list online is up to date so payments can be matched to players. You have no insurance until fees are paid and rego forms are completed (if not done online last year).
Cheers

There are a few teams doing duty on different courts – so please check the draw carefully.
I will be working on the draw for the rest of the season this week – so please let me know if you have any teams that are going to be away.
The A Grade teams have been particularly slack at having their team lists complete – all players need to login and make sure their team is listed in MyTeam. These teams should be 90% sorted before the first week – and many of them have no players still. If this doesn’t improve I will be forfeiting teams as I don’t have time to be chasing adults to organise themselves.
Registration
There has been some confusion about the Registration process – before you can fill out your registration details, you need to sign up to the MyTeam page to enter your registration details.
Part of the sign up process is to confirm that your email address belongs to you – it will send a confirmation email to the address you provide. This helps to protect your privacy, and helps to protect the website from anonymous data being used to flood the system.
If you don’t receive a confirmation email, then this will stop you from being able to login. Use the contact Us button to let us know it didn’t work. Check your junk/spam folder to see if it was stored there by mistake.
Once you have successfully signed up and logged in – you will be asked to fill in your Registration details – you should see a Registration button similar to the image below.
Once we have your registration details, we don’t need you to re-enter them again every year like we used to have to do with the paper forms. At the moment, you cannot edit your registration details after you have entered them – which is something that will be fixed up soon.
When your email address (the same one as you signed up with) is added to a team list, we know to add your details to the batch of registrations we send to Volleyball QLD. School teams are handled slightly differently, in that we just need their names and birth dates as the school is their point of contact, so personal contact information such as phone numbers, email addresses and street address are not required as they are for adults.
Some of you will be paying your registration fee through USQ – you are still required to sign up to the MyTeam site so you can update your details to let us know we don’t have to chase you for registration payment (and manage teams etc..) At the moment, you still have to fill out the registration details form (as I couldn’t skip it easily without breaking other parts just yet), but that will be changed as soon as I get a chance.
I am aware of about 4 or 5 people that have had trouble signing up – please let me know if you are having similar problems as it will help to work out where the problems are – and also create a written record that you couldn’t enter your registration details.
Please get in touch if you have any questions. The Contact Us form at the bottom of the MyTeam page is the best spot to do so.

Round 2 Draw
The draw did get uploaded onto the website on Sunday afternoon – but I just wanted to make a few updates to the website before sending out the email notice.
So I made a few changes to the Fees page in the MyTeam page…
and I added a download button to the Draw page so you can print it…
and then I thought I would fix the Team Edit form up a bit…
and then I had a look at the signup process…
and then I had a look at the time and well, no-one wants to get emails at midnight!
So the email won’t go out until early Monday morning – not too early though!
Well our first night went pretty smoothly – thanks in particular to the Hawks girls that helped out with a duty, it was much appreciated. We do have a lot of new teams this season, so please be patient while everyone finds their feet. We are looking for another court manager to help out on Tuesday nights – particularly at the early part of the night – from 4:00pm until 6:40. Get in touch with me if you are interested in earning a few dollars while helping out.
