USAFL

I am sad to announce several resignations within the USFooty family:

First, Todd McIntosh is resigning as the Central Region Vice President. Todd is a long time member of the USAFL Board; many of us know him as The Guy Who Runs the AGM. At my request, Todd will remain active with the Board as General Counsel. I have asked Jim Martin, of the St. Louis Blues fame, to finish this term as the Central Vice President. Jim has agreed, and he will take the office effective Monday, April 8.
