MEETING OF ASSOCIATION.

A meeting of delegates was held on Saturday night, Mr French chairman of the Association, presiding. The principal business was in connection with the strengthening of the Dome Valley team. Permission was given to two Warkworth club members to transfer to the Valley club, and for this weok, the rule requiring fourteea days registration before playing was suspended so as to afford the Valley every opportunity to get the best team available*. Votes of thanks were accorded to Messrs Brunette and Qrebbin for their gift of a turnstile^ to Mr Linkhorn for providing material' and fixing nets. Appreciative nTv/fioii was maclo of the services of Mr McGechie as referee. Mr McGtechie does not leave his scholastic duties till 2 p.m., so his Saturday's dinner is either a moving repast, or else a fast. The chairman also commented on the unselfishness of the Matakana players travelling to Warkworth for every event. Mr Braithwaite in reply, stated the Matakana boys offered to make the journeys as a solace for their inability to put two teams in the field. He was glad that everything was turning out so satisfactory. On the motion of Mr Linkhorn, it was decided to ask the Auckland Association, as to the possibility of arranging a trip for a senior B team. It was also resolved, on Mr Braithwaite's motion to give an invitation to the Ponsonbv club to send a team.
