Were their any discussions or decisions made about adding the 9th member or "armwrestler rep"?

As Bill indicated we have had a host of discussions around it, and we agreed to a formal discovery around not only the position but the responsibilities and the mechanism for developing the role.
As a note, we have customarily held an athletes meeting on Saturday morning at 10, allowing anyone in attendance the opportunity to ask any questions of the board, or to offer any suggestions they would like discussed and other than Dan Martin no one showed up for it.
I was prepared to discuss
Athlete Members
Anti Doping
Director of Athletics on the board etc.
So it does not seem like using the event as a platform for athlete admin items really has a lot of legs.

other than Dan Martin no one showed up for it. Well that makes it tough to argue armwrestler rep then. Still holds an important role though whether 1 or 100 showed. I just think everything brought up and voted on should have a solid yes or no vote instead of a yes, no or no vote(which is the same as no) and who better to make the tie breaker than someone voted on by the people that really make this sport happen! |

USAF is heading in the right direction and is revolving around positive objectives...and it's like anything else, everyone has an opinion so having a solid yes or no is not going to happen, you can't make everyone happy.... Like any smart business, developing a process before implementing something is proactive vs. implementing something before developing a process is reactive...another words get it right the first time so you don't have a problematic fix... Like Simon said for the last three years and only one armwrestlers show up to be heard...reguardless it's a nurturing process... |
