  • MSHSL Proposal Unified Basketball
    MINNESOTA STATE HIGH SCHOOL LEAGUE REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY PROCESS UNIFIED BASKETBALL This proposal formally requests the Minnesota State High School League to officially sanction a Unified Basketball Season starting during the 2021-2022 school year. PROPOSAL TO AMENDMENT TO BYLAWS Special Olympics Minnesota along with member schools are requesting the addition of a co-ed Unified Basketball season as part of the winter season starting in the 2021-2022 school year. Submitted by: 1. Region 2AA- Patrick Devine, Superintendent, Waconia School District 110 2. Region 2AA- Jeff Pawlicki, Principal, Shakopee High School 3. Region 4A- Natalia R. Hernández Ed. D., Head of School, Breck School 4. Region 4AA- Ricky Michel, Activities Director, Stillwater High School 5. Region 6AA- Ed Graff, Superintendent, Minneapolis Public Schools 6. Region 7A- Tim Rohweder, Principal, Proctor High School 7. Region 7AA- Paul Riess, Activities Director, Cloquet High School 8. Region 8A- Gregg Parks, Superintendent, Nevis Public Schools 9. Region 8AA- Troy Hendricks, Athletic Director, Bemidji High School Current Bylaw: There currently are no bylaws and no officially sanctioned Unified Basketball season with the MSHSL. Proposed Changes: Special Olympics Unified Sports® joins students with and without intellectual disabilities on the same team. It was inspired by a simple principle: training and playing together is a quick path to friendship and understanding. By using sports as a catalyst for change, students work together towards a common goal and are educated, motivated, and activated to recognize abilities rather than disabilities. The desired outcome of adding a Unified Basketball season is for both organizations to benefit from: further reach related to missional focus, heightened visibility of organizational programs, and to be the premier interscholastic league related to opportunities for students with disabilities.
