This would make each league a more consistent experience, but the turf league would have to be shortened to 10 weeks and the size of each bracket may be smaller, meaning you'd play the same teams more often. How would you feel about this?Select OneGood - I would prefer to play in a turf only league even if the season was shorter.Good - I would prefer to play in a grass only leagueBad - I would prefer the mixed surface setup because it attracts more teams/competitionIf you have any additional feedback on the sunday west fields, please elaborate belowThis summer we had to move from Petrie Island to Garneau Dome, how did you feel about this change?Select OneGreat - the courts were nice and it wasn't a long commuteGood - It was more consistent than the volleyball tournament nightsIndifferent - the location and courts were fineBad - I preferred the beachPlease use this space for additional comments/feedback or to elaborate on how you/your team felt about Garneau DomeThis Summer we experimented by having the Ottawa Blackbears teach Quadball (Quidditch) - how did you feel about playing this sport?Select OneGreat - it was a lot of fun and I'd enjoy playing it againGood - It was interesting but I'd only like to play it once per yearIndifferent - I would play it once but could take it or leave itBad - I'd prefer not play this sportPlease use this space for additional comments/feedback or to elaborate on how you/your team felt about Quadball - rules you liked/didn't like, overall experience, etc.As usual, the Ottawa Gaels taught and ran Gaelic Football - please use this space to provide feedback on how your Gaelic Football experience went, what you liked/didn't like, etc.This Summer was our first year at Garneau dome for Volleyball - how did you find the experience there?
