The meeting is under way and MSHSL staff is updating the 48-member rep assembly on several ongoing issues; funding, travel, weather, etc.
The biggest change that could be approved today is the summer coaching waiver. In case you want to see all the dotted i’s and crossed t’s, here is the wording of the amendment:
1) Summer Coaching Waiver: Member schools shall have the authority to approve a coaching waiver following the fourth Friday in May through July 31 of the same calendar year. Member schools shall have the authority to approve a coaching waiver June 1 through July 31 of the same calendar year, exclusive of a seven day no contact period held July 1 through July 7. Coaches who have been granted a summer coaching waiver by their high school to coach a summer league team may continue to coach that team through Labor Day if that team participates in an end-of-the-season tournament as a natural extension of the summer team season. Said exception must be approved, in writing, by the high school athletic director of that school. 2) Summer Camp/Clinic Waiver: Member schools shall have authority to approve a coaching waiver for camps and or clinics following the fourth Friday in May and ending July 31. June 1 through July 31 of the same calendar year, exclusive of a seven day no contact period held July1 through July 7. 3) Procedure for Granting Summer Coaching or Summer Camp/ClinicWaivers: The designated school representative of the member high school shall document, in writing and keep on file in the school: a) A letter of verification from the coach indicating an agreement to coach the students; b) The letter required for summer coaching shall be documented on an official League Summer Coaching Form, which is available on the League web site.
