Amen to that. B+L has a policy that they will not sponsor non-school teams -- an issue that I hope will never come up when it comes to B+L-sponsored teams!

As for the statement that "as of now" you [the OP] don't have a team, that shouldn't be true, either. The school's fiscal year hasn't ended yet, so you're still operating on last year's budget... Which will carry through the second vote at the least.
