marck, ND

This past October the CCCAM organization, made up of close to 500 members, met together for its annual Summit, gearing up for the 2018- 2019 competitive cheer season. This year’s Summit highlighted keynote speaker Allison Tinsley, University of Michigan’s cheer coach and founder of World Cheer Ex-change. Also hosted were guest speakers in tumbling, stunting, and other core ingre-dients to competitive cheer. Coming up this December, the organization will be host-ing a Scholarship Invitational at 10 different sites across the state. Hosting these competi-tions gives us the opportunity

to raise funds to offer sen-ior athletes scholarships based on academics and service. Most recently in the 2018 season, out of 200+ applicants, CCCAM gave away approximate-ly $40,000 in senior schol-arships to 40 athletes - $20,000 in academics, $20,000 for service.

November 2018 Newsletter

Fall sports are finishing and some of you are decompressing. Others are just revving up with winter sports fast approaching. Then there are those who are continuing from one sport to the next. THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO FOR STUDENTS AND ATHLETES! The fall meeting in Bismarck has concluded. It was an intense and fast paced two days. I was often taken back by the thoughtfulness, leadership, professional-ism, hard work, positive conversation, and foresight displayed by the executive board. I know that is a lot of adjectives but what an impressive group! Include in that praise Randy Johnson and the North Dakota Board. They are working hard, and I have no doubt the convention will be outstanding.

Some topics discussed were:

New regional configurations

Organization of committees

Updating bylaws, policies, and procedures

Adding of up to 4 states as members

Two new and exciting partnerships

3D Coaching

Glazier Clinics NHSACA has partnered with 3D coaching which is a program designed to help coaches understand their purpose in coaching and then implementing that pur-pose. Coaches in member states will receive a 20% DISCOUNT on the program. 3D coaching is a program on the rise and very popular. NHSACA has also partnered with Glazier Clinics. Schools in member states can now pay one fee for ALL coaches in the ENTIRE school to go to UNLIMITED clinics AND have access to an online vault of videos from other clinics. Glazier is also compensating state coaching associations and NHSACA for this! These partnerships, along with our growing relationship with Coach and AD magazine, will offer coaches educational resources; further increasing the benefit of being an NHSACA member state. These partnerships should be things to be excited about! Be on the lookout for the minutes which will contain additional infor-mation on these items, and more. In the next month we will have Coach of the Year nominations due, and Hall of Fame inductees will be sending their information in as well. Whether you are slowing down or speeding up this winter with coaching, best of luck, well wishes, and thank you for being a part of NHSACA. Yours in coaching, Justin Davie 3rd Vice President

The Michigan High School Tennis

Coaches Association (MHSTeCA) held

its fall meeting on Saturday October

27th at Haslett High School. MHSAA

assistant director Dan Hutcheson was

present to give his report on several

items, including the full implementation

of TennisReporting.com, a software

program used for recording all matches

played. This program should also be of

some help with the seeding process for

MHSAA tournaments going forward.

The 2018-2019 school year marked its

first mandatory seasons of use for all

schools wishing to compete in the state

tournament. Dan briefly discussed, and

then charged the board with finding

solutions to, the following issues: girls

playing on boys teams (allowed by law),

the success of the state seeding com-

mittee (99% for seeded players reach-

ing the semi-final round), growing the

sport of high school tennis in Michi-

gan, increasing participation at the

middle school level, looking at differ-

ent formats and scheduling options

(and locations) for future state tour-

naments, some concerns about

player and parent behavior towards

tournament personnel, the role of

“varsity B” teams, and potential back to back days of play for regional

tournaments in the case of inclement

weather. Members of the board will

be forming sub committees to further

investigate these major issues for the

MHSAA and MHSTeCA.

The board made the following pro-

posals and has forwarded them to

the MHSAA tennis committee for

consideration: creating a deadline

for substituting a player into the

lineup for regional or state tourna-

ment competition, allowing coaches

to text at the state finals (previously

not allowed), , more closely defining

the role of the roving umpires at

state finals, allowing an extra coach

at the state tournament level (up

from two to three), clarifying what

infraction(s) constitute a team point

penalty, allowing coaching at any

time for JV and middle school

matches (this would be different

from the varsity rule), what to do

about the fall start date in 2019

(which is one week later than last

year) – the MHSTeCA is asking that

practices start on Monday, August

12th, and for competitions to begin

on Saturday, August 17th.

This year’s coaches clinic is being moved to the west side of the state

and will be hosted by Hope College

on February 1st and 2nd, 2019. It will

provide a better opportunity for on

court demonstrations and activities

and attract great speakers. The

executive board is hopeful that attendance

among Detroit area coaches will remain strong

despite the additional travel. The board re-

mains concerned with the declining number of

boys playing tennis in the fall and will continue

discussion about the season switch and its

effect on our sport. Three coaches will be

inducted into the Hall of Fame this February:

Joe Gentle from North Muskegon, Nancy

Brissette of Essexville-Garber, and Scott Zer-

laut from Grant. Coaches of the year were

chosen, and all state athletes were named for

the boys season. Girls tennis begins on Mon-

day, March 11th. The next MHSTeCA board

meeting will take place after the conclusion of

the girls tennis season on Saturday, June 15th

at Haslett High School.

The candidate must have distin-

guished himself/herself with good

coaching ethics and promoted

good sportsmanship throughout

his/her coaching career. *The AD

or principal’s signature confirms this. Ten (10) years of coaching

outside of Michigan may be applied

to the application. Coaching at any

level may be applied as long as it is

a school sponsored interscholastic

sport. To receive a general coach-

ing certificate the candidate must

have been coaching at least one

sport per year at any level for the

requested number of years. To

receive specific certificates for a

single sport the candidate must

qualify for the specified number of

years in that sport. This can be at

any level. You cannot however

count more than one level or sea-

son for a sport in any one year. For

example, coaching both boys and

girls basketball during the same

school year counts as “1” year; coaching both 7th grade boys and

JV boys during the same school

year counts as “1” year. Up to three (3) years may be included for active

duty military service which delayed

or interrupted an applicant’s coaching career. Awards for 30

years and more (plaque) will have

the sports that the candidate

coached listed on the plaque. The

coach will be presented only one

award for each level of service

after 30 years.

The MHSCA Board of Directors

recognized Rich Tompkins

(1946-2015), former Executive

Director, for his service to high

school athletics by naming the

multi-sport athlete award in his

name.

Each school in the state can

nominate one boy and one girl

from their school for the

MHSCA Rich Tompkins Multi-

Sport Athlete Award. The only

requirement for the athlete is

that they must have participat-

ed in a least 3 sports for all four

years of high school. Infor-

mation will be sent out through

the help of the MIAAA to all

AD’s in the state.

Nominations are due by April

15th and must be submitted by

the school’s principal or AD. Each of the nominees are eval-

uated on the basis of their ath-

letic achievements (both indi-

vidual and team), scholarship,

leadership and service. The

committee utilizes a rubric to

rate the candidates.

All of the nominees receive a

high quality certificate from the

MHSCA in honor of being their

school’s honoree. Additionally, one boy and one girl from each

of the four classes of schools

(A, B, C, D) receive a plaque as

the MHSCA State Multi-Sport

Athlete of the Year.

Dear Athletic Director,

As president of Michigan High School Ski Coach-

es Association (MHSSCA) I send this letter on behalf of the MHSSCA board. Every year we

hold are MHSSCA annual coaches meeting in

conjunction with MHSAA rules meeting. Our meetings cover important topics and information

for your school downhill ski coaches and much of

our time is spent on MHSAA rules and MHSAA events (Regionals & State Finals)

In 2016-2017, the MHSAA named a new director of ski, Cody Inglis. The MHSSCA board and

myself were energized by the passion Cody

brought into the sport of Ski racing. During the last year, many sub committees have been

formed to help update rules and

processes of the sport, many ski coaches across the state have been

involved in the off-season working with MHSSCA board the MHSAA

and these types of updates have not

been done for many years. The MHSSCA board and myself believe

that these changes will have a

lasting impact on downhill ski racing in Michigan for years to come and

we want your ski coach to be a part of things!

This year’s MHSSCA annual meet-ing will be held for two days at Boyne Mt. Ski Resort in Boyne Falls

on October 7 & 8th. As you can see

from the attached agenda, we will have a two-day clinic packed full of

sessions and information that will help your ski coach. We will have CPR

and First aid recertification available

for all coaches on Saturday. Addition-ally on Saturday, we will also cover

MHSSCA business and awards along

with a ski vendor show. On Sunday, the clinic will conclude with MHSAA

rules, rule changes, MHSAA tourna-ment discussion (regional-state finals)

and a question and answer session

with Cody.

We are excited about this year’s clinic and think that your ski coach and

program will do nothing but benefit with their attendance. We need and

want your support to get your ski

coaches to the clinic and allow them this professional growth opportunity to

become involved with their sports

coaches association, the MHSS-CA.

I have attached information regarding room cost, clinic agenda and times

and dates of our clinic. If I can help

answer any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out at any time by

email mdfoyteck@comcas

t.net or my cell phone at 248-884-0039.

We look forward to serving schools, teams and coach-

es while promoting the

values of downhill ski racing in your community! Have a

great school year!
