www.ofsaa.on.ca 1 A Word from Doug Gellatly, OFSAA Executive Director You may be aware that I am leaving OFSAA as of June 19th after 11 years as executive director. I have accepted a similar position with Ontario Colleges Athletic Association, an organization I worked for prior to joining OFSAA in 2004. This decision did not come lightly and I feel mixed emotions as I leave such a respected organization. The past 11 years have brought constant challenges and rewards. I have had the honour of working with numerous volunteers who are committed to the motto “Education through School Sport.” The work that these teachers put forth for students is often taken for granted and many are unaware of all the effort required to operate school sport in the province. At the provincial level, I have had the opportunity to work with many inspirational leaders on the executive council, representatives’ council, and many committees. I have also been fortunate to work with several OFSAA presidents who have strong, effective, and differing leadership styles. I have learned from each of them. The list includes Walter Piovesan, Tracey Parish, Martin Ritsma, Lynn Kelman, and Jim Woolley. Of course, my fellow staff members have always been very supportive and I am appreciative of the jobs they perform. These are very dedicated and hard-working people who believe in OFSAA and all it stands for. Working with these professionals on a day-to-day basis is a major reason I have found this job so enjoyable. There are many highlights that come to mind when I reflect upon my time with OFSAA. Certainly, trips to championships and seeing student- athletes compete is at the top of the list. This is an essential part of the job because it always reinforced for me the reason for OFSAA’s existence – the student-athlete. Most memorable are my visits to the smaller communities where the OFSAA Championship is a big deal. I have grown particularly fond of North Western Ontario, having been to five or six events in that part of the province. I wish all students could have the experience of attending a championship there. I have enjoyed attending OFSAA meetings, including the executive council, representatives’ council, and other committees. I enjoyed listening to varying opinions and passionate debates, both of which are important and healthy to the organization. I am amazed at the time people from across the province give to attend these gatherings. Many have commented to me over the years that their volunteer involvement with OFSAA was important to their professional and personal development. School sport is founded upon education and this should always be its primary purpose. One of the strengths of OFSAA and its member associations is the unwavering commitment to education through sport. The rules, regulations, and policies all support these educational aims and objectives, and I hope that any attempts to pull school sport in a different direction are always strongly resisted. When we move on to new ventures, it is usually the people we will miss most. That is undoubtedly the case for me. I have developed many friendships over the past 11 years and I will miss those relationships. I thank all the staff and volunteers who I have worked with since 2004 and hope our paths will cross in the future. It has indeed been a privilege to serve OFSAA. 2 THE BULLETIN SPRING 2015

OFSAA wishes Lynn Kelman all the best

Lynn Kelman is completing her term on the OFSAA executive council after seven years. She joined OFSAA as vice president in 2008, then moved into the president’s position in 2010, and has spent the past three years as past president. Lynn has been involved in many aspects of school sport over her 33 years in education, including serving six years as the GBSSA representative on the OFSAA Representatives’ Council. She also sat on the OFSAA Board of Reference Transfers for eight years, including seven as chair, and has been involved with several other committees, including Future Directions, Classifications, and Championship Review. Known for her leadership, integrity, and work ethic, Lynn has given countless hours to student-athletes, and is an impressive role model for female educators. She is presently the principal of Banting Memorial High School in Alliston, and will retire at the end of the school year. Retirement won’t be quiet though, as Lynn and her husband Steve are excited about the arrival of their first grandchild this July. We wish Lynn all the best in retirement and thank her for her remarkable contributions to school sport in Ontario. Thank You, OFSAA By Lynn Kelman It is with mixed emotions I write to you as the I would also like to extend my thanks to Kathryn outgoing Past President of OFSAA.

It has been a pleasure organization of dedicated educators that is known for me to travel the province and see provincial and respected in Ontario and Canada. championships.

The teacher-coaches in the province are our most valuable resource. The driving force behind OFSAA is the hard work and dedication of the hundreds of volunteer teacher-coaches. Thank you for your dedication to “Education Through School Sport”. Your service to our student plays a role in their success in education as well as shapes their growth as citizens in the school community and in the communities where they live.

I would also like to thank the OFSAA staff: Doug, Beth, Shamus, Damien, Lexy, Mike, Devin, Diana, Peter, Brian, Ken and Jim. Your commitment to high school sports and your service to our student-athletes makes OFSAA an outstanding organization. I feel privileged to have worked with you for the last seven years.

www.ofsaa.on.ca 3 OFSAA: How It Works When the word governance is uttered, often people’s eyes immediately glaze over. While not an exciting topic or one that inspires, it is a necessary component of any organization and OFSAA is no exception. As its name indicates, the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) is an organization comprised of 18 member associations. Each association runs its own affairs on a regional level, yet collectively they form the provincial body known as OFSAA. At times those within the school sport system may disagree with a rule or policy, but it is important to note that OFSAA is a democratic organization and change can be affected. If a motion is properly submitted it will be debated and voted upon by the designated council within OFSAA, after being vetted by the appropriate committee. If a coach, administrator, or athletic director would like to see change, a motion form is available on the OFSAA website, which can be completed and submitted to the OFSAA office (go to www.ofsaa.on.ca and click Forms). At times, you may wish to simply run the merits of an idea by a staff member or committee and it is suggested you call the OFSAA office to get some direction. The key to remember is that OFSAA is a provincial organization with representation from across the province, and while not everyone will agree on a rule or policy, it is important to note that changes can be proposed and accomplished within a democratic environment. Listed below are the various Councils within OFSAA, their composition, and a summary of their responsibilities.

OFSAA Adopts New Recruitment Policy OFSAA has enhanced its Recruitment Policy effective the 2015-16 season. Definition of Recruitment: Recruiting is defined as a representative of a school, either directly or through another party, encouraging a student to attend a school other than that in whose catchment area he or she resides and/or within a shared catchment area for the purpose of being involved in extracurricular sport. The school representative could be a teacher, administrator, school district employee, school employee, student, parent, alumnus, or any person representing themselves as a school contact. Rationale: A recruiting prohibition discourages exploitation of students; prevents over emphasis of athletics; gives average student-athletes more opportunity to participate; discourages adults from jeopardizing a student’s eligibility; and prevents misuse of athletic programs. Indicators and Inducements for Athletic Purposes: There may be many legitimate times that a school • a school representative shall not permit a student representative and/or coach of a school team will who is not currently enrolled at the representative’s be in contact with students from another school. school, or whose present school does not directly Therefore, indicators of recruiting have been feed into the representative’s school, to attend “open developed to provide parameters of behavior gym” at the representative’s school or attend spring and expectations for coaches and other school or summer practices, games or camps specifically representative(s). designated for enrolled students. • a school representative shall not initiate contact with • a school representative shall not entice a student any student who does not attend, or does not directly who is not currently enrolled at the representative’s feed into a school, in order to suggest, encourage or school, or whose present school does not directly explain a transfer to a different school. feed into the representative’s school, into transferring • a school representative shall not encourage any to the representative’s school. other person, including past and present players, to • where a coach or school representative is contact any student to suggest, encourage or explain approached by a student-athlete or representatives a transfer to a different school. of student-athlete who is not enrolled at the school • a school representative shall not permit a student or at a feeder school, with inquiries concerning the who is not currently enrolled at a school, or whose school’s sports teams or programs, the coach or present school does not directly feed into the school representative must direct the student-athlete representative’s school, to participate in team or representative of the student-athlete to the school practices or participate in scheduled team activities administration.

START PLANNING YOUR 2015-2016 TRY DAY EVENTS!

Thanks once again to the grant from the Ministry of Education, almost 140 schools from across the province received up to $700 to add a new or non-traditional sport or physical activity to their programs, and to provide students with a leadership opportunity in the implementation of these programs. As the Ministry was very pleased with the results of last year’s Try Day programs, hopefully Try Day funding will again be approved for the coming school year. Watch the OFSAA website later in the summer for announcements re: funding for Try Day.

Think ahead as to what new activity may motivate all your students to get active, enjoy participation in physical activities, and how to incorporate your student leaders into the program, and be ready to apply for Try Day funding…if it is available.

Some ideas from this year’s programs … scooters, disc golf, pickleball, omnikin, speedminton, kayaking, new approaches and equipment for fitness and many more!

There are plenty of resources available for any activity both within your community, and from the sport governing bodies. Make use of them when developing your programs. STAY TUNED TO THE OFSAA WEBSITE FOR THE LATEST NEWS ABOUT TRY DAY!

Schools accepted for funding will be notified of their acceptance by OFSAA staff within 2 weeks of the receipt of the application, and a reporting package and posters will be sent to the approved schools.
