	<description><![CDATA[<img src="/images/2012/Cricket_Coloured_Dress.jpg" align="left" width="137" height="110" alt="BCMCL Color Clothing Proposal">The BCMCL would like to explore more on the initiative of introducing <b>Color Clothing for the ALL the divisions</b>, before proposing a formal change in the Governing rule #39. We invite <b>response from all the Players</b>. Players can send their response directly to <a href="mailto:secretary@bcmcl.ca"><b>League</b></a> or through club delegates. <br> 
BCMCL is considering 3 options at the moment.<br>
<b>Option [A]</b> - Make it '<b>Color</b>' Uniform <b>ALL</b> across the Divisions - White Cricket Balls for ALL the Divisions. Cost of Cricket balls may increase + cost related to color kits. <br>
<b>Option [B]</b> - Keep the <b>White Pant</b> and introduce '<b>color' shirt</b> for ALL the Divisions <b>below Div I </b>(I.e. Div II to Div VI) - White Cricket Balls for Elite, Premium and Div I and 'Red' Color Balls for Div II to Div VI to save money on Cricket Balls and no need to spend extra for coloring kits like Pads etc. <br>
<b>Option [C]</b> - <b>No changes</b> to the current clothing. I.e. White Uniforms for Div II to Div VI and color clothing for Top 3 Divisions.
<br>
Above are just few options. If you come up with any other better options and the reason for it, Please share it with us.
<br>
Please send your response <b>on or before 9th Jan 2012 </b> to consider your voice for further action.]]></description>
