2012 Football Season Begins This Week

Week one of the 2012 football season begins with games this week. The 8-game season features one less game than in previous years and marks the return of reduced-player football as 16 teams embark on the season featuring 8-player teams.

Reminders as the School Year Begins

As the fall season begins with practice, we would like to remind you of several items. Transfer students - always consider all transfer students ineligible until they have been cleared for transfer, code of conduct, and academic eligibility.  Your returning students – check their academic eligibility before competing and have your coaches meet with you again before the first contest to be sure an athlete did not join the team after the initial academic review.  Foreign Exchange students - Be sure to communicate with your guidance counselor and principal to see if you have any foreign exchange students who wish to participate in athletics. Collect Required Documentation Before Practice or Competition. Health and Safety – Have your coaches review the material on the WIAA Health Page.  Performance Enhancing Substances – PES is not limited to just steroids.  

Rules Videos Available

The football, swim/dive, tennis and golf rules videos are now available.  Coaches and officials should login and access the videos under either the SCHOOLS TAB or OFFICIALS TAB on the menu bar.

Following the completion of the video, coaches are asked to print the certificate as proof of completing the exam and give a copy of the certificate to their athletic director.

Soccer, volleyball, and cross country videos will be available August 1.

Fall Sport Exams - Available

The fall sport exams are now available for officials and coaches to complete.  Please look under the SCHOOLS tab or OFFICIALS tab in the red ribbon of the menu bar at the top of the website.  You will need to be logged in as a coach or official to access the exams.
