Hi Everyone, 

We need your help solving an envelope problem in our office. Envelopes are being filled out with little to no information on them, writing only a team number (problem: every division has a team #2), using only their team name's initials, not including the date of play, not filling out player names and fees collected (or noting if/when someone plays free), and not signing or sealing the envelope confirming the amount enclosed. 

All of these are problems for obvious reasons. We need to be able to allocate funds properly, and efficiently, and all of the missing information is making this challenging indeed. 

A reminder: Bonus points are dependent on complete and accurate scoresheets and envelopes.

Here's the excerpt from the bylaws (p. 3):

A team will earn one (1) bonus point in 8-Ball and five (5) bonus points in 9-Ball only if all of the following occur:

• Innings and defensive shots are properly recorded for all matches

• Final match score is verified with the opponent and any discrepancies are addressed in the electronic scoresheet comments

• Electronic matches are Submitted via Scorekeeper at the conclusion of league play

• Any matches scored on paper are submitted to the League Office via picture text message

• Any paper scoresheets are submitted in the Team Fees envelope

• Team envelopes are filled out completely and any free play is accurately noted

• Team envelopes are submitted to the correct host location at the conclusion of league play

• No abusive comments are written on the scoresheet or team envelope

Please make sure your team is filling out your team envelope completely before it is submitted. Your team number can easily be seen on the Scorekeeper app in parentheses after your team name, above the rosters or on the main calendar screen showing all of your matches. The full five-digit number is your team number.

Thank you for your help in this effort. 

Mike & Kelly
