  2. WIAA Executive Board Report:  Chris Bigelow  
    1. Chris reported the WIAA Board attended the State Dance/Drill competition while in Yakima for the Board meeting.  For many Board members it was their first time attending the event.  Chris thought it was a well-run event and enjoyed by the Board members.
    2. WIAA is considering raising fees as a tool to help balance the budget.  It has been 5 years since a fee increase, and revenues from State events have been on the decline.
    3. The Board spent most of the remainder of the meeting discussing the amendments.

 

  1. Sea-King District 2 Executive Board President Report:  Annette Duvall

A.     Sea-King Positions on Amendments to Spring Rep. Assembly.  Annette led a discussion of the amendments and the proposed amended changes.  League reps reported positions from their leagues.

B.     Violations.  League Reps reported violations that have occurred since the last meeting.  M/S/P League actions.

C.     2007-2008 Executive Board Meeting Schedule.  Last month Marilyn proposed a meeting schedule for next year and asked reps to check their school calendars, especially for spring break.  Tabled until next month.
D.     2006-2007 Budget Status Report – Marilyn distributed to-date budget report .We are on track financially. Revenue from the 3A Basketball tournament was less than budgeted but other sports were more than budgeted.
E.      District Tournament Financial Reports for Winter Sports.  Marilyn reported on the winter tournaments.  Dance/Drill will be reported next meeting.

F.      1A Tri-District Agreements – District 1,2 and 3 have worked out a plan to combine for many spring sports.
1.   Baseball – Year one, D2 brings two teams to a tri-district 8 team tourney.          In year 2, the D3 #3 team has a pigtail opportunity to get into the tournament.

2.      Softball – District 2 has only one allocation each year. D1 and D3 will allow the D2 #2 team access through an 8 team tri-district tourney.

3.      Track – D2 will bring 2 boys and 4 girls to a tri-district track meet.   In each meet, the lanes/events will be filled to 16 entrants, so we will have the opportunity to send more competitors if our athletes have the next best times/distances.

4.      Tennis – there will be a quad district boy’s tennis tournament at UW.  Tom will run the numbers and indicate how many entries each district will be allowed to bring.  In Girls Tennis, the facility does not allow for a tri-district girls event because we will be holding a 1B/2B quad district event on the same dates. So the Emerald City girl’s tennis qualifiers will go to the state bracket.

5.      Golf – D3 is hosting a golf tourney for all classifications with D1 and the facility will not accommodate any more entries. So Emerald City golfers will qualify to the state meet from their league tournament.

6.      Soccer – D2 schools participated in fall soccer and qualified teams to the state tourney in the fall.

G.     Review Sea-King Documents – Jan Woldseth, John Wiley and a rep from Kingco 4A were selected by the Board to meet to discuss and propose changes to the By-Laws and Constitution at 2:30 PM prior to the May 14 Board meeting.

H.     Dist 2 – WIAA Board Position – Craig Olson is willing to continue as the WIAA rep from District 2. This is a 3-year commitment. Sea-King will nominate him for the position at the April Rep. Assembly.

I.        Discussion of the No-Standing Rule – Ken Jaffe remarked that at the State Basketball tournament in Yakima, the A.D.s were required to make student and parent spectators stay seated at all times.  There did not to seem to be the same requirement at the 3A tournament. The Board thought that this WIAA rule was no longer in effect and wondered why we had differing rules at different sites.

J.       Selection of 3A 2007-2008 Basketball Sites - tabled until next meeting

K.    Sea-King Contribution for WSSAAA Conference.  M/S/P to donate the same amount as last year. ($100.00)
