2011 Meet Calendar

On Sunday evening, one of the meet calendar proposals from the post-season survey finally reached 40 votes, a level which constitutes a majority of TSA's 78 member teams.

The winning calendar option schedules meets on six consecutive Tuesdays, starting on June 14th and ending on July 19th – basically identical to the 2010 calendar, though the dates all move up by one day due to the usual precession of the calendar from year to year. The teams voting in favor of this motion were:

Abbington
Apex
Bedford at Falls River
Brier Creek
Carlyle & Chatsworth
Cary Park
Coachman's Trail
Eagle Ridge
Falls River
Garner
Glenridge
Greystone
Jewish Community Center
Lakemont
Lochmere
Manchester
Medfield
North Raleigh
North Ridge & Raleigh Racquet
Olive Chapel
Park Village
Prestonwood
Quail Hollow
Regency Park
Seven Oaks
Shepherd's Vineyard
Silverton
Southall
Springdale
Summerfield North
Sunset Ridge
TAC
The Reserve
University Club
Walden Creek
Weldon Ridge
Wellington Park
Wendell
Wood Valley
Zebulon & Zebulon Country Club


Three other teams (Brookstone, Haddon Hall, Meredith Townes) also recorded a vote for this proposal, but I did not count them because they also recorded a separate vote for a different meet calendar proposal, so their overall intention is unclear. Nevertheless, the other 40 affirmative votes are enough to give the favored option an absolute majority of the Board, so we will adopt that schedule.

If your team still hasn’t completed the post-season survey, please don’t ignore it just because we have decided the meet calendar for next year. The survey is also your only chance to register your preferences for your 2011 committee assignments, so please fill it out if yours is one of the few remaining holdout teams.
