With due respect can the observations be channeled through your either captain or team manager ohter than everyone askinghis or her questions please.
gather all your queries and write up something and submit to BASMAL. I find this degrading the governing body.

I wish to advise you that almost all the other teams includig ours have been asked to play more than one game in 3 hours this season in more than one occassion. I am sure that everyone including you saw the fixtures on the forum and yet nothing of this kind was pointed out. Is it a must that an action must be taken after an appear. Our team never complaned about this because we understood the circumstances the gentlemen you asked to run things on this side were in. There were so many teams and we had to finish playing by a certain date for other events to be encorparated) e.g all star, chairmans trophy etc. Thats how the league has been played through out the season, my argument is if we and all the other teams complain that we have been playing 2 games in less than 3 hours and that led us to loose some points, would Basmal take any action, maybe replay our games, or award us points. As of know the league is finished and we have accepted that mimbulu are our champions based on how the league was played, but am afraid that your decision might just change the outcome of our league if we all complained and you had to act at this time. Personally i have really enjoyed the season this year, and I am impressed with the way the cezoball gentlemen have run it, the action they took on the blazers were based on what every team was meant to or not meant to do this season for it to be run properly. If all the sudden you come back to us and say blazers have been reverted because of the arguments you have stated, then I ask you to consider our team and all the other teams that have faced a similar situation this year, or maybe you might leave things as they have been and compile another list of rules and regulations that will be abide by carefully next season. Again that is just my thought. But I do expect a responce fmom Basmal. Zikomo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Roy Kachale <[email protected]> To: [email protected]; basmal <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, 12 December, 2008 15:00:00 Subject: {CEZOBAL} Blazers Appeal Ladies and Gentlemen, Basmal was approached by Blazers with an appeal on the decision taken by Cezobal to fine Blazers an amount of MK15k. Their arguments in summary were as follows 1- As a sportsman, if you say you are tired and cannot continue with a game, you cannot be forced to continue the game. 2- In international Basketball, it is inadvisable to play 2 games in the same day let alone 2 within a 3 hr period. 3- The team was adequately punished by giving up their right to continue with the tournament. As Basmal, we felt that we needed to make an independent analysis of the whole situation. We therefore decided to exclude all interested parties. These were Jacob Chikoya, Interim president of Cezobal and one of the people that made the decision to institute the fine Daud Suleman, Interim Secretary of Cezobal and member of Mimbulu George Phiri, interim Treasurer of Cezobal (at the time) and member of Blazers The following were consulted in this decision making process Oscar Kanjala, President of Basmal Roy Kachale, Secretary of Basmal To ensure independence, we also incorporated help form other non interested parties as follows Chimwemwe Mhone, President of Nozobal Willard Kachikwati, Secretary of Nozobal Hope Chisamanga, Secretary of Sozobal The unanimous decision was as follows The punitive measures instituted are not proportional to the offence committed, the forfeiture of the game was punishment enough. Therefore, 1- Blazers should be reinstated into the A league with no points deducted from any of their league games 2- There can be no restriction on the participation of any of their players in the National team or the all-stars 3-Since there is no written rules that state that a team that forfeits a game be fined MK15k, or indeed a precedence of the same, Blazers should not pay the fine. If Cezobal wants to include that as part of their new rules, they can do so but not retrogressively. I am sure that this clears all the bad air that was surrounding this issue. Should anyone have any queries, please feel free to contact me.
