Following the end of each school year, the MSHSAA staff designates coaches who have shown a commitment to the ideals of coaching interscholastic sports and making an impact on their sport beyond their own school or community by nominating them as the MSHSAA Coach of the Year. This recognition is based on accomplishments made in the 2023-24 school year, and these coaches will now have the opportunity to be selected at the next level of this award, the Section V Coach of the Year. We'll explain all that and go over this year's fall sport coach nominees.
Our final episode covering student eligibility will dive deeper into Section 2 of the student essential by-laws as we review other key factors that impact a student’s ability to participate in interscholastic sports and activities. Certain elements, such as semesters of participation, amateurism, physical exams, insurance, practice and conditioning, are key to determining eligibility. To wrap up this episode we'll spend significant time discussing residency and our transfer rule.
The administrative body of the association is known as the Board of Directors. These members represent regional areas of the state, along with two 'At-Large' members. They are active school superintendents, principals, or activities directors. Acting as the executive body of the association, they oversee numerous responsibilities. Following the first meeting of the school year, we met with two current members of the MSHSAA board to discuss their roles and how they contribute to the association.
In this episode, we will introduce our newest team member to the MSHSAA staff—Andrew Kauffman, who has taken over as Communications Director for the Missouri State High School Activities Association. We'll visit with Andrew and dig into his background as a sports director and the path that led him to the MSHSAA office. We will also tease something exciting that our team has been preparing for and how we plan to implement this into our existing programming.
In an effort to define the current stance of the Missouri State High School Activities Association regarding the use of the shot clock in basketball contests, this brief episode will explain exactly what the MSHSAA Board of Directors decided, as well as how the use of the shot clock will be determined.
Looking further into our student eligibility series in this episode we dissect a more complex topic as we define the concept of 'undue influence' and address what that means when talking about student enrollment and 'recruitment' in the high school setting. As this requirement can be one of the most complex to explain out of all the eligibility standards it also tends to be one of the most misunderstood. This discussion is designed to give not just our member schools more clarity but to also solve any misconceptions any member interested in a students enrollment may have.
Continuing in our series over student eligibility this episode will take a look at a few more of the student essential by-laws that apply to all student participants who represent his/her school. We'll discuss the definition of a 'Bona Fide', dig into the citizenship requirements and also review how semesters of eligibility are determined.
During the 2024 MSHSAA Show-Me Showdown Basketball Championships we took the opportunity to visit with some special individuals who may be on the periphery during any given contest but their presence is truly an asset. If you are from the central Missouri area you probably know the names Kevin Kelly, Steve Duncan and David Fox (or at least their voices) but you may not know how much loyalty and dedication they have for their craft and why they are so passionate about 'getting it right'. Enjoy this episode as we recognize these sports media broadcasters and hear more about their love for the game!
Born out of necessity the Missouri State High School Activities Association origin story is certainly an interesting one. This episode will look back at our earliest beginnings and provide considerable background information and the conditions that were in place that initiated the development of a state wide association. Who were the key players and how did they help develop interscholastic activities as we know it today? Listen as we take a trip back in time!
As we dig into the issue of student eligibility, this episode will layout the guidelines MSHSAA considers when it comes to academic eligibility. One objective of the association is to develop standards for the approval and direction of interscholastic activities and one of the ways we do that is through establishing an eligibility standard for all students who wish to participate in interscholastic activities. Listen as we try to shed some light on how a student can maintain their academic eligibility, what should schools consider when reviewing a students schedule, and why it is important for the association to develop this standard.
