6.      Sea-King District 2 Executive Board President Report:  Bob Dowding

  1. Fall Eligibility Report  - Mike Ritch.
    Mike reported that there were 50 cases heard this fall, down from previous years.  12 seasons limitations cases were heard.  Athletic Directors are telling kids that very few 5th year kids get passed, they come anyway feeling that they have the right to do so.  There have only been two special (late) hearings this fall, down from previous years.  Mike was surprised that there were no previous semester cases this fall.  Fewer transfers appeared this fall.  Mike feels strongly that our eligibility committees are some of the best in the state.  Greg Hart and Craig Bakken both went to the WIAA Eligibility meeting in Ellensburg in August.  We have several new members on the boards as well this year, including two interns.  Mike expressed his gratitude for the willingness of our committee members to volunteer to participate on our boards.
  2. Violations.  Violations were discussed and voted upon.  The board heard an appeal from Chief Sealth concerning their football team playing a “contest/jamboree” in August.  The team’s coach was penalized for the violation.  The board originally voted at the previous meeting to count the event as a contest.  Mike Kelly requested that the board reconsider and define it as a “jamboree”.  A motion was made to deny the appeal.  The motion was approved as presented.

C.       Review of 2002-2003 Annual Financial Report.  Marilyn handed out copies of the annual audit performed by Jim Murphy for review and went over the results.  Income was up over 20%  and expenses were up just over 1%.  This report will be filed with the WIAA.  Bob Dowding signed the Income Tax File and Marilyn will submit it.

  1. Site Selection for Football/Soccer – Soccer Manager 1A/B.  We need help finding managers for the 1A/B tri-distict tournaments.  Please contact Marilyn.
