  2. WIAA Executive Board Report:  Craig Olson

A.     July 25, 26 in Pasco.  Approved Budget and voted to apply additional $200K to the building loan.  Also paid all the WIAA districts’ insurance costs for 2005-06.

B.     Tabled CC season lengthening decision.  Want to review.

C.     First reading…number of schools that drive one allocation plus 1 school will determine the whether a district should be “glued” and get a second opportunity.

D.     The board denied the Kingco request to allow an experiment in volleyball.

E.      The summer activity panel suggested some changes for contact between coaches and athletes during the summer.  The panel is asking the Board to present an amendment that will not allow any contact after July 1 each year.  The Board has not made a decision whether to propose such an amendment as of this time.  A concern is whether some other group would just fill the void and keep our state athletes busy all summer long.  AD’s should discuss this with their school administrative teams and come back with some recommendations on the topic.

F.      Two editorial changes for the handbook:  1.  Coaches cannot transport athletes to out of season events.  2.  To meet the pre-practice requirement, it will state that an athlete must participate in the majority of the practice for it the first 10 days of the season.

G.     There is a change in the Board meeting schedule.  That is posted on the WIAA website.

H.     There was an extensive discussion of the name for the new classification.  The discussion revolved around process.  Four options were presented for discussion.  The options were presented in a Memo to each school from WIAA.  Schools and Leagues should discuss this and bring back input to Craig at our next meeting.  Our district discussion looked most favorably at Option 2 and 4.

I.        State Dance/Drill has been moved to Mar. 24, 25 because of WASL.

J.       1A/B track site concerns led the WIAA staff to look at Spokane Falls as a possible site. 

K.     Track Officials may be assigned to meets by the WIAA office.

L.      1st reading on putting “a” basketball tournament in Seattle for March of 2007 between Key Arena and UW.  This necessitates that this tourney (probably 4A and 3A – depending on the new names) would switch weeks for the state tourney.

B.     Executive Board Calendar.  The  June meeting will be moved to Monday, June 5 date.

N.     Scholastic Cup.  Gill asked if we were aware that the non-varsity ejections did not count toward the Scholastic Cup.  The board wasn’t aware of that and asked Gill to follow up with Jim Meyerhoff to request that all of a school’s violations count, not just varsity ones.
