6.      Sea-King District 2 Executive Board President Report:  George Vanni

A.     Review of 1999-2000 Annual Financial Report - Karen Fitzgerald.

B.     Violations League actions approved

C.     Proposed Amendments for Rep. Assembly.  1) Dick Baird reported on an amendment to move the starting date for football to the previous Thursday, allowing three non-pad days prior to the “regular” Monday start.  The precedence is set with Gymnastics starting earlier than other winter sports.  Contact Dick if your school is interested in signing on with this amendment.  2) Water Polo and Lacrosse proposals may “resurface”.  3) 4A Kingco may be making a proposal on tournament size should there be a very large number of 4A schools statewide as expected.

D.     Site Selection Basketball - Change games at Highline CC to Liberty – Craig Olson

E.      Weigh in Times - Jack Reynolds
Jack is looking for some consistency on weigh in times.    Jack needs us to go back to our ADs and coaches for help.  If there are 7 or less JV wrestlers, call them exhibition.  This allows all the kids to weigh in together at the proper time and provides some flexibility for the official’s arrival.  Please call Jack with the JV numbers so the officials can be notified as to the appropriate weigh-in time.  If there is no call, schools will be billed for both a varsity and JV slate of events.  If an official is not able to be present at weigh-in time due to an emergency, then the site manager/administrator will handle the weigh-in.

F.      Seamount League Status – Rick Stubrud
Rick spoke to the principal from Franklin Pierce and the AD at Fife.  There may be changes in the PCL (Fife, White River, Clover Park, Lakes, Washington, Franklin Pierce).  Some of those schools may opt up, leaving either 4 or 6 schools looking for a possibility of putting a league together with Seamount.  None of this will be known for sure for a time yet.  Many of these schools were former league members.  Seamount League principals will discuss this next week at their meeting.  Discussion will then take place with coaches, AD, and communities.  This would be a plus in terms of allocations and scheduling.  Traffic and travel would be concerns for league members.  Nothing is formal at this time, just in the process of discussing possibilities.

G.     National Student Leadership Conference Delegates from District 2.  The WIAA will participate in the NFHS program.  Each district will select one boy and one girl to participate in this July program in Indianapolis.  The board needs to come up with a proposal to select the district candidates.  The board will be asked to participate financially to support the students’ participation.  The board has monies available for leadership opportunities in our budget.  The students upon their return would participate for the following year in a leadership role in the district.  It was suggested that each league promote this and select a boy and a girl.  A committee of the board would then select the finalists for this program.  We will discuss this again at the December meeting.

H.     Housing in Yakima for 1A Basketball Tournament. Marilyn passed out information about the housing for the 1A Basketball Tournament in Yakima.  Annette and Tom will pass this information on to the SeaTac 1A schools.

I.        Just Play Fair Update – Annette Duvall
Annette participated in the most recent Just Play Fair meeting which discussed how to promote the program within schools, leagues, and districts.  It seems that most schools know about the program and promote sportsmanship, but don’t specifically use the Just Play Fair program.  Leagues are encouraged to promote this program and encourage schools to adopt it.

 6.       Sea-King District 2 Executive Secretary Report: Tom & Marilyn Doyle

A.     Correspondence

B.     Review Fall Tournament/Play-Off Status.  Marilyn requested managers and ADs to email tournament information and results to Seaking2@juno.com so that we can get it on the web site.

C.     Winter District Tournament Dates, Sites & Mangers.  Corrections should be sent to Marilyn.  She will correct and bring to the next meeting.

D.     Sports Season Survey.  The WIAA will be discussing the sports seasons, timing, and length.  Input on these topics is highly encouraged.

E.      Basketball Rules Emphasis
