Annual General Meeting The Recreio hockey section held its Annual General Meeting on September 16th. The main topic was the team structure for the coming season. Four men's teams will be fielded, with the "A", "B", "C" and "D" teams in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th divisions respectively. The "A" team will comprise the best players from last season; the "B" will feature students from the Hong Kong University's Swire Hall; "C" will be the social team consisting the other players from least season; and the "D" team will be our main development squad with players from the university's R C Lee Hall. The ladies will keep the same three teams from last season, and will be joined by another development team from R C Hall. The Ladies' "A" will compete in the 1st Division, the "B" in Division 2, the "C" have been promoted to Division 4, and the Ladies' "D" will hone their skills in the 5th Division. Good luck, everyone. A few other items were briefly discussed during the AGM which saw a turnout of over 50 people in a meeting that lasted less than an hour.
