2020–21 RIDLEY COLLEGE`````1 ATHLETICS Committment to Daily Physical Activity Ridley has always valued the connection between mind, body and spirit. At no other time in our lives have these three components of human well-being been more intertwined or important to nurture. As a national leader in physical literacy and sport, Ridley is dedicated to our tradition of quality daily physical activity and athletics. From our Kindergarten through Upper School, we will endeavour to keep students active and engaged every day. These activities are being responsibly developed and managed, using the best research and timely science-based evidence from public health authorities, along with guidance from our provincial and national sport organizations and the Canadian Sport Institute’s medical team. In our campus facilities, we have developed comprehensive plans related to capacity, flow, enhanced sanitation and hygiene, and daily schedules. In terms of physical activity, we will explore a phased approach that is responsive to provincial legislation, the climate of the pandemic in the Niagara region and Ridley’s robust community screening and hygiene practices. In Upper School this means: • Morning and afternoon recreational (Sport for Life) and competitive sport sessions may evolve from physically distanced individual training, to small team practices and game-like situations, to competitions, depending on the health status of the Niagara region and that of our competitors. • Regular physical education classes will build sport skill competency and confidence, develop coaching and sport leadership, and influence our community in positive ways. • Interschool sport matches and travel will be based on the health status of Niagara and our competitors' regions. Our diverse sport associations have developed a variety of schedule options that could include regional and interprovincial play. The CISAA has contingency plans which include altering schedules and moving sports out of their traditional seasons, in order for student athletes to enjoy the benefits of competition. When it comes to physical activity, there is no remote or virtual replacement for the needs of the mind and body. We all need to be active, engaged and creative—Ridley’s plan endeavours to ensure that our community continues to safely reap the rewards of an active lifestyle. Thank you for supporting the athletic pursuits of your child and allowing them make lifelong memories with us at Ridley. Yours in sport, Jay W.

Please send your completed documentation to [email protected]. Sport for Life Tennis, Booce, Hiking, Running Club, Squash, Yoga, Bootcamp and more! Sport Signup All (new and returning) students will sign-up for their first term sport prior to arriving on campus. We encourage all students to try out for a competitive team! Tryouts & Houst Rotations Competitive team tryouts will begin and run through the first seven days of school. Running concurrently with the competitive tryouts will be a rotation through the Sport For Life offerings for those who choose a recreational activity or who are released from the competitive team tryouts. Each House will cycle through the Sport for Life offerings, allowing students to experience all options before making a final choice. Review of Fees As the most active school in Canada, Ridley boasts a robust and comprehensive competitive athletic programme. Ridley teams carry our orange and black Tiger banner locally, provincially and internationally in a variety of different sports. Though the school’s athletic budget covers the vast majority of cost associated with sport, there are components where families incur additional costs. We believe that you will find tremendous value in the fees associated with athletics based on the experiences and the exposure your child will receive as a member of our competitive family. • Uniforms: For a variety of reasons (legacy, spirit, hygiene, etc.) all student athletes are required to purchase a base training kit (t-shirt, black shorts, hoodie, sweatpants) which can be worn for all sports and physical education classes. They will also purchase the individual team uniforms which for most teams include the game jersey(s). You can estimate the cost to range between $50.00- $200.00 CAD per competitive sport team your child plays on which will be charged to your family account. • Mouthguards: Of special note to all of our athletes playing field hockey and ice hockey is the CISAA (Conference of Independent Schools Athletic Association) and Ridley mandatory mouth guard policy. All students need to have a properly fitted mouth guard in order to compete. This is also strongly recommended for all basketball and soccer players. Field hockey and ice hockey student athletes who do not arrive to campus with a proper mouth guard will be fitted for one by our dental associates in the first week of school. The cost of this durable custom fit mouth guard will be $35.00-$40.00 CAD and will be billed to your family account with the term athletic fees. • Events/Overnight Trips: We also have events that include CAIS (Canadian Accredited Independent School) National Tournaments and OFSAA (Ontario Federation Secondary Athletic Association) Championships that some teams may qualify for. For these specific events, the school has a cost sharing formula that it uses to determine the fees covered by the school and those paid for by the participating families. Any competitive team with at least one overnight trip = $250.00 - $500.00 CAD per athlete, while a competitive team that only plays CISAA league sport = no additional cost. • Prep Sports: In our Prep Sport Programme (ice hockey, basketball, rowing), there are additional fees associated with the extended competition schedules these teams play outside of our traditional CISAA league matches. All of these seasonal costs are outlined by the coaches in a pre-season letter to parents. .

    The National Collegiate Athletic Association Cartel: Why It Exists, How It Works, and What It Does

    Author's personal copy Rev Ind Organ DOI 10.1007/s11151-017-9590-z The National Collegiate Athletic Association Cartel: Why it Exists, How it Works, and What it Does 1,2,3 1,2,3 Allen R. Sanderson • John J. Siegfried Ó Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2017 Abstract In this essay we consider why American colleges and universities par- ticipate in big-time commercialized intercollegiate sports, and how sports came to play such a prominent role on American college and university campuses. We also review how the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) developed as a body to regulate player safety and transformed itself into an economic regulator, the means by which the NCAA attempts to maintain its control, increase revenues, and reduce costs for college sports programs. We also examine how the organization succeeds in the face of institutional characteristics that imply that its cartel activities would be doomed. Finally, we speculate on what changes might be on the horizon for the NCAA and college athletics.

    Things to Know About Volleyball Recruiting

    THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT VOLLEYBALL RECRUITING Terms to Know NCAA Clearinghouse or Eligibility Center (eligibilitycenter.org) – is the NCAA office that certifies a student-athletes academic credentials to be eligible for Division I and II athletics. You cannot make an official visit to a DI or DII school without being at least registered with the clearinghouse. NCAA Division I – 325 Volleyball teams at some of the most well known schools (Florida, Texas, Duke, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Rider etc). Division I schools are permitted to offer scholarships to up to 12 student athletes for volleyball. Schools that are “fully funded” will only offer full scholarships. Partially funded programs will split scholarships and stack with academic and need based aid money to make you an offer. The season is August and into December, with off-season training through the spring and even summer months at many schools. This is the highest level of college athletics, and is the most demanding. NCAA Division II – 250ish Volleyball teams at lesser known schools (Felician, Georgian Court, Tampa, Lemoyne, Millersville, CW Post). Division II schools are permitted to divide the value of 8 full scholarships among a larger number of student athletes. Many DII schools only have between 1-3 scholarships, which they divide and stack with academic and need based aid, but seldom is it a full package. The season lasts from August through November, with either a limited spring training season, or they have recently approved the addition of beach volleyball as a spring sport which some schools may be adding soon. NCAA Division III – 425 Volleyball teams at a variety of schools (including NYU, Chicago, Johns Hopkins, Williams, Scranton, Kean, St.

    Managing Athletic Department Touch Points: a Case Study of One Institution Using Importance-Performance Analysis

    Journal of Intercollegiate Sport, 2013, 6, 196-212 © 2013 Human Kinetics, Inc. www.JIS-Journal.com ARTICLE Managing Athletic Department Touch Points: A Case Study of One Institution Using Importance-Performance Analysis Chris Chard Brock University Joanne MacLean University of the Fraser Valley Brent Faught Brock University Athlete recruitment and delivery of the sport experience are critical components in determining the success of intercollegiate athletic teams and programs. Here, the athletic department brand and the associations of the brand achieved through “touch points” influence student-athletes’ perceptions of the athletic department. The purpose of this study therefore was to understand the perceptions held by student-athletes about the brand of the athletic department. Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) and brand touch point theory were used to accomplish the study’s objective. Specifically, the authors analyzed surveys from 149 student-athletes based at one university in Ontario, Canada to consider athletic department “touch points.” The results proved beneficial for highlighting areas of discrepancy between deemed importance and performance on key recruitment and delivery attributes including scholarship support, spectator support, special treatment, recognition, and quality of facilities. Keywords: university athletics, brand, touch points, recruitment, retention, importance-performance analysis One of the fundamental requirements of a successful university athletic depart- ment is the ability to attract the best student-athletes to represent the institution in varsity competitions (Dailing, 2002; Le Crom, Warren, Clark, Marolla, & Gerber, 2009; Letawsky, Schneider, Pedersen, & Palmer, 2003; Ryan, Groves, & Schenider, 2007).

    THE IMPACT OF A SIGNIFICANT COLLEGE BASEBALL STADIUM PROJECT ON ATTENDANCE, RECRUITING, AND ON-FIELD SUCCESS James P. Richards III A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in the Department of Exercise and Sport Science (Sport Administration). Chapel Hill 2016 Approved By: Nels Popp Erianne Weight John Brunner © 2016 James P. Richards III ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT James P. Richards III; The Impact of a Significant College Baseball Stadium Project on Attendance, Recruiting and On-Field Success (Under the direction of Nels Popp) The purpose of the study was to determine how building a new college baseball stadium or conducting a significant renovation effects on-field success, recruiting and attendance when comparing the three years before and after the stadium project. Recruiting data was obtained from Perfect Game, while attendance and winning percentage data was obtained from information released by the NCAA and on athletic department websites to determine if the millions of dollars athletic departments are spending on facility upgrades lead to improvements in these areas. The study focused on the top-11 NCAA Division I baseball conferences and was narrowed to a sample of 41 baseball programs that conducted a significant stadium project between 2007 and 2013. There were no findings showing a significant relationship between a stadium project and winning games. However, new stadiums led to a significant increase in commitments from top-500 recruits and extensive stadium projects led to an average of an additional 493 fans per game in the three years following the venue opening.

    Innovation, Achievement and Excellence Have Been the Hallmarks of Robert Mulcahy’S Tenure As Director of Athletics at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey

    Robert Mulcahy Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Innovation, achievement and excellence have been the hallmarks of Robert Mulcahy’s tenure as Director of Athletics at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. Since coming to Rutgers in 1998, Mulcahy has been the guiding force in the continued development of the university’s Division of Intercollegiate Athletics program. He is committed to the ideal that Rutgers Athletics will provide the best possible experience for its student-athletes. Mulcahy’s vision for Rutgers Athletics has led the division to unprecedented development and accomplishment. Wide-ranging improvements in facilities have allowed the division to function at greater efficiency, thus enabling opportunity for greater success for Rutgers student-athletes, both in the classroom and on the playing field. Mulcahy’s leadership has brought reality to this vision. He has been responsible for raising the division’s endowment by $4 million, and was instrumental in developing and securing outside revenue totaling $24 million, resulting in the renovation, and construction, of a number of facilities. Capital projects from this funding include the expansion and enhancement of the Hale Center, allowing it to become one of the finest of its kind nationally, with an expansive strength and conditioning facility, a state of the art training room and academic support facilities which include classrooms, study rooms and computer labs. Rutgers Stadium has enjoyed significant enhancements under Mulcahy’s watch, as well, and now features a state-of-the-art scoreboard and Field Turf playing surface, all helping to ensure the best possible experience for student-athletes and fans. Other projects have resulted in a modern, state-of-the-art academic support laboratory in the Louis Brown Athletic Center (the “RAC”), as well as an expanded weight training complex, and a modern media headquarters and interview facility.
