Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association SASKATCHEWAN HIGH SCHOOLS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION SEPTEMBER 2012 NEWSLETTER SHSAA EXECUTIVE Executive Director’s Report 2012 - 2013 Welcome back to another school year. Along with a relaxing summer, I hope that all of you had a chance to spend some PRESIDENT: quality time with your family and re-energize for another exciting Roger Morgan, Kincaid and rewarding year of school sport. I know that the students are looking forward to another year of excitement of school sport that will further their growth as contributing citizens through their EXECUTIVE COUNCIL: involvement in the various activities. The office staff and the Val Gordon, Eastend Executive look forward to another great year and hope everyone Jody Kerr, Weyburn involved shares the same excitement. The Association ended last year with another successful AGM. It Cory Schmaltz, Carrot River was again a rewarding experience that proved to all in Kelly Schneider, Medstead attendance that the passion of school sport was alive and well. The discussion that takes place reinforces the philosophy and Barclay Patterson, Saskatoon mandate of this Association. It was great to see the turnout of Dale Reed, Regina delegates, some new as well as some veterans. I believe this ensures a good blend of ideas for the Association. The annual Kerri Archibald, Humboldt general meeting in Swift Current brought closure to the 2011- Miles Bennett, Rosetown 2012 school year. This served as a springboard to the 2012- 2013 school year and along with it, will introduce some exciting Larry Pavloff, Martensville new initiatives for our membership. This year will see the launch Kyle McIntyre, Chinook SD of the new organization, the SIAAA (Saskatchewan Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association). This organization will become a professional development opportunity EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: for our athletic directors in order to provide resources for the Kevin Vollet extra duty they provide to their schools. The Association will also join the other Canadian provinces in delivering an on-line ASSISTANT coaching program. SHSAA President Roger Morgan from EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: Kincaid School chaired the three-day meeting which included the Lyle McKellar election of five positions to the SHSAA Executive Council. Cory Schmaltz, Carrot River High School, was elected as the new EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT: SHSAA Section 3 representative. Joining Cory and new to the Jessica Blair Executive Council will be Kyle McIntyre from Chinook School Stefanie Lewis Division, appointed by the LEADS association as their representative to the SHSAA Executive Council and elected as SHSAA OFFICE the Officials Commissioner is Miles Bennett, Rosetown Central #1 - 575 Park Street High School.

Congratulations to the newly activities consistent with the elected board members and thank you to those that let their goals of education.” name stand for election to the SHSAA Executive Council. September 2012 Page 1 www.shsaa.ca SASKATCHEWAN HIGH SCHOOLS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Thank you is not enough to the members of the Executive Council leaving their position. The province was very fortunate to have Brian Grest, Horizon School Division, and Larry Bedel, Horizon School Division, serve on the Executive Council as Section 3 representative and the LEADS representative respectively. Brian has completed his four year commitment to the Association and he dedicated his time on the Council for the betterment of the province’s students. Brian will continue to serve the best interests of the students as the Student Activities Coordinator for the Horizon School Division and will be an advocate of school sport for the entire province. Larry has superannuated from the education sector, and therefore was required to step down. Larry was very involved in his time in education as a teacher, principal and superintendent. The students and Association were a beneficiary of his dedication to school sport bringing his knowledge and experience from all facets of the education. The 2012 AGM was a great success. I would like to publicly thank District President Terry Ross, Athletic Commissioner Deb Reamer, conference chair Janna Walker, Superintendent Kyle McIntyre, Chinook School Division and the South West District for hosting our AGM in Swift Current. The meeting was very well planned and the many volunteers of the organizing committee are to be commended for their great hospitality. A brief summary of these changes are listed below. The SHSAA Executive Council will be responsible with maintaining the policies and activities portion of the Association. The Council will formulate sport specific advisory groups for each activity and through these groups, the Provincial Council will provide feedback and submit suggestions for any changes to playoff format. Students with refugee status whose exact birth date is unknown will be considered for a maximum of two consecutive semesters for the purpose of participation in SHSAA activities. Schools will need to provide documentation that supports refugee status to the Executive Director who will determine the period of eligibility. The student transfer policy has been refined whereby any student that transfers to a second school in their three year eligibility period, will be ineligible for school sport. There will be a process of appeal and the forms are on the web site. The receiving school is required to complete the E17 form and should provide the appeal forms to the parents of the student should the school wish to appeal. The joint sponsorship policy for curling is limited to both schools required to have an enrolment of less than 20 students in the specific gender. This policy only applies to boys and girls teams, not the mixed category. The student database must include the Sask Learning ID number assigned at the onset of Grade 10. School Enrolment numbers must be submitted by Oct. 5th to the online form to avoid the late filing fee. Should a school fail to submit the enrolment prior to this date, the school will have up to the Friday preceding the regional playoff to complete the enrolment process to avoid the removal of their teams in soccer, volleyball or basketball. Effective the 2013-2014 school year, there will be only three classifications of soccer.. Soccer official’s pay scale has been adjusted to $36.00 (carded referee) & $25.00 (non- carded referee). The two assistants/linesman pay scale remains the same. Football officials pay for carded head official is now $42.00 and the carded support team is raised to $32.00. Basketball official’s pay scale has been adjusted to $33.00 (carded referee). An additional four sportsmanship banners may now be awarded in any of the sponsored activities based on submissions to the SHSAA Executive Council. September 2012 Page 2 www.shsaa.ca SASKATCHEWAN HIGH SCHOOLS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Volleyball o The provincial ten-team draw has been edited to better distribute the matches. Wrestling o The white paddle challenge has not been adopted for provincial play. o The boys top category of 110+ has been changed to under 130 kg. Basketball o If at all possible, each section will be assigned one regional tournament. Badminton o Coaching may only take place during the designated breaks between sets. Track & Field o The SHSAA Executive Council will research the pros and cons of the Athletics Canada LTAD model and recommend adjustments to the current exceptions for the provincial meet. o The SHSAA will implement a School Team award in the categories similar to Cross- Country. A complete listing of all approved and defeated resolutions is available on the SHSAA web site. Go to: http://www.shsaa.ca/pages/agm/2012/Resolutions_2012_FINAL_web.pdf A reminder that each school will still be required to submit their current school enrolment as of September 30th, 2012 to the web site by October 7th, 2012. This is necessary to finalize classifications for the current year and set the framework for the following competitive year. Schools that experience a 25% or more increase or decrease resulting in a classification change, will be moved immediately to their new classification. Adjustments to the conference make-up due to this clause will be posted on the web site in early October. All of us at the SHSAA office look forward to a great year. Our staff is here to serve the schools throughout the year. Please call on us if we can be of assistance. 2012 SHSAA Merit Award The following individuals were recognized with the SHSAA’s highest honour, the 2012 Merit Award. A citation regarding their careers in school sport is included in the 2012 SHSAA Yearbook.
