Guessing that each "club" in Scotland curls together on a specific draw time. But how do you do this when curlers have already chosen their draw time and half of the curlers on a draw opt in to USCA and other half opt out? A more practical approach is to allow all CC members to elect whether or not to join USCA... which USCA probably is not going to allow



FYI that is the US Tennis Association model. The incentives to join include discounts to attend marquee events, instructional camps, and eligibility to play in sanctioned events of various sorts and levels.

I actually agree with some of what has been said about how the 2nd resolution was written. Also, lost in this discussion is resolution #1 which allows new clubs to "step into" membership, which I think is a great move. So let's not forget that.

Also forgotten is the fact that these resolutions were passed, by what I'm told, was an overwhelming majority of the BOD, which is made up of the regional reps. So if there is a problem, let's not simply assume that the USCA staff is out to get everyone. Let's make sure that the BOD is accountable.

But back to the "heavy handed" resolution #2. I think the motive was compelling from a brand management perspective, but two distinctly separate policies got tangled together in the implementation. It probably would have been better to approach it as these two items:

1. Much like any disclaimer by most sporting organizations: "Any use of the USA Curling or Team USA brands, programs, or personalities by member or non-member clubs without the express written consent of USA Curling is prohibited." Stating it this way covers ALL clubs and protects the brand appropriately and doesn't have same "targeting" feeling that people are getting from the existing resolution.

2. As Curlky aptly pointed out, many companies have INTERNAL POLICY to cover employees and agents of their companies. Something like "No USCA staff, program athlete, or paid partner may represent USA Curling, Team USA, our programs in person, by name, or by likeness at any non-member facility, program, event or activity without the consent of USA Curling". Again, this would cover and protect the brand but would be an internal policy that USA Curling has every right to set for the people in question.

Just my thoughts.



Winner winner chicken dinner. This is how most boards would have handled this kind of situation. Public shaming will recruit neither new clubs nor talented board members.

Here's a link to the many clubs based at Breahead in Scotland where the Euro A & B championships are this year. An 8-sheeter in shopping mall. I wonder if all these clubs are dues-paying members of the RCCC.

http://www.curlbraehead.co.uk/clubs-at-braehead.html

USCA needs to figure out how to work with, not against, this sort of new type of curling facility model in a private mall similar to the Chaska government funded model. The days of a cheap warehouse building with just one nonprofit club in cold climate areas curling only part of the year is not now where the sport is growing the most.

The resolution has been amended.

Athletes seem to be cleared to play anywhere but the board/coaches, etc. may still be asked to step down from their position by attending certain events. It is really quite ambiguous to what this may include.
