Regs last year we had all of those postponements, in fact they cut out the Div 1 teams. I think the league is much further along this year, and I don't know but I would guess it will be a larger draw (at least 1 or even 2 in some cases more rounds). But who knows.

Columbus 2 - Cliff Ave 2
Cliff very lucky to get a PK on a more than suspect (CRAP)call by Miro. That guy is losing it. That tied it up. Columbus had more of the play and the better scoring chances.
Nice to see Columbus on the wrong side of a ref's call for a change - I am sure it was Hose with the foul - actually that would not be possible - for that to happen he would need to have been inside his own 18.
a question for those who are older,wiser and balder than me. Trying to get some answers for something that ain't occuring for a year or 2.
How difficult is it to get a team into the vmsl masters league?
Our club is inching that way as some of us are getting near the age where we can move into Masters as we get our young guys ready to take over. Is there a waiting list or anything to get in or would we be best to get involved with a current masters team. Wondering as one of our ex players was wondering last night when we are going to have a team so he can play again.( i may be fat but i am waayyyyy fitter than he is.)
Thanks if anyone has a clue of what the deal was.

We thought it would be Div 3 actually. It is the room question. Until this year there has been a waiting list to join the vmsl. Teams were on a list to get into div 2 if spots opened up. The formation of div 3 let most of them in. WOndering if a list is in place or needed for the Masters leagues.
By the book, you start in 3rd div and work your way up. If your team is going to kick everyone's ass in 3rd, nobody wants that--not the teams and not the league. I think it really depends on the quality of the team applying: there have been instances of teams walking into premier because of their pedigree. It's decided on a case by case basis it seems.
The other way to do it is to CAT up with somebody and take over as the existing braintrust (as it were) age out of the more competitive side of things. This is tricky but doable if you find the right team...I have no idea who a likely candidate would be right now but there may be one ripe for the picking as I type. Trece Verde (I think) had a list of teams who were without CAT structure not too long ago so that would be a good place to start I guess to test the waters. CAT teams are not eligible for promotion though so the "switch" of your players for theirs is the way to the higher divisions.
Good luck in your quest, I won't be seeing you on your journey until we catch up in the O-50/60's or something. Rugby has a good system where people from different decades wear different coloured shorts and there are different rules for different players as far as contact is concerned.
Cheers, Peter
