January 2013 Newsletter SASKATCHEWAN HIGH SCHOOLS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION JANUARY 2013 NEWSLETTER SHSAA EXECUTIVE Executive Director’s Report 2012-2013 Welcome back to school after a well deserved break over the Christmas holidays. The SHSAA PRESIDENT: Executive along with the office staff hope that all of you had the opportunity to spend quality Roger Morgan time with family and loved ones over the holiday break. The Association wishes to thank each and every one of the schools including the administration, coaches, officials, staff advisors and parent volunteers for providing the opportunities of school sport in your building. We could not provide these opportunities without the cooperation and volunteer hours that your EXECUTIVE COUNCIL: communities provided. Val Gordon, Eastend This time of year also allows me to remind all coaches that are involved in modelling the Jody Kerr, Weyburn school sport philosophy, that consideration must be given to teams that are not at the level that their opposition is at. You are not modelling the values of sportsmanship to your players, Cory Schmaltz, Carrot River nor considerate of your opposition when scores become ridiculously one-sided. Those that run up scores or continue to pressure opposition when the result is well in hand, have Kelly Schneider, Medstead absolutely zero gain in either season results, seeding for conference play, placement in top Barclay Patterson, Saskatoon ten rankings for interest or more importantly the respect from not only your opposition but also your own student-athletes. Dale Reed, Regina This newsletter provides notice to all schools of the change in the Transfer Policy that was Kerri Archibald, Humboldt approved at the 2012 AGM and redefined as a result of a Board of Review in early fall. This is notice that students in Grade 9 and 10 will be subject to the new policy. This policy states that Miles Bennett, Rosetown once students have enrolled in their Grade 10 school of choice, they are eligible for SHSAA sanctioned inter-school sport at that school and only that school. Should a Grade 10 student Bob Simpson, Melville transfer next year (their Grade 11 year), they are only eligible at their Grade 11 school for the activities they did not participate in at their Grade 10 school. Students are free to transfer Kyle McIntyre, Chinook SD schools during their high school career, however their athletic eligibility is established at the school they enter Grade 10. This year's Grade 11 students will be governed by the old transfer policy that states a student is only allowed one transfer within their three-year eligibility EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: period. If a Grade 11 student has transferred already to their school of choice this year but Kevin Vollet chooses to transfer for their Grade 12 year, they will be ineligible in the SHSAA activities they have participated this year. ASSISTANT The classification system for the 2013-2014 school year will be based on the Gr. 9-11 EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: enrolment of the current school year as was approved at the 2009 AGM. As such, there have been four championships for the fall of the 2013-2014 that have come open. The four Lyle McKellar championships that are now open and will require written bids to be submitted to the SHSAA Executive Council are Sand Golf, 4A Girls Volleyball, 3A Boys Volleyball and 4A Boys Volleyball. EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT: These written bids will be due on or before April 12th, 2013. Please refer to the SHSAA Jessica Blair Handbook (pg. 68) for the criteria required in a written bid. The Executive will select the host site of these championships at their April meeting. Stefanie Lewis The SHSAA bids a fond farewell to Mr. Larry Pavloff. The SSBA Executive for whom Larry SHSAA OFFICE represented the past four years, requires Mr. Pavloff's expertise in other areas, thus requiring #1 - 575 Park Street him to relinquish this position to another worthy representative to the Executive Council. The SHSAA welcomes Mr. Bob Simpson to the SSBA vacancy. Bob is also a former educator as was REGINA SK S4N 5B2 Larry, and his expertise in the area of school sport is welcomed to the Board. Thank you Larry Tel: (306) 721-2151 for your dedication to the student athletes of Saskatchewan and we know you are not far Fax: (306) 721-2659 away should the Association require some expert advice.

The eight teams participating at the provincial championships will include the host school and seven other teams that have qualified through the regional championships. Regional championships will be held February 15 – 16, 2013. The Regional championships will consist of a six or eight team double knock-out format leading to an ‘A’ event and ‘B’ event qualifier to the provincial championship. The only region that may require an A-B playoff to complete the double knock-out competition is the region with the provincial host. The A-B playoff will only be contested if the provincial host has not won either the ‘A’ or ‘B’ event. In the regions without an A-B playoff the ‘A’ event winner will be considered the Regional champion. A random draw, held in the SHSAA office, will determine the placing of teams in the draw for both the regional and provincial competitions. Teams from the same district/regional will be placed in opposite halves of the draw. Districts should declare their representatives to the Regional Championships and contact the regional commissioners and SHSAA office by Monday February 11, 2013. Regional commissioners are asked to contact both the SHSAA office and provincial commissioner by Monday February 18, 2013 with the names of the schools which have advanced to the provincial championship from the Regional Championship they are hosting.
