  6. Change in TSSAA Calendar for 2009-2010

    At the January 2009 Board of Control meeting the Board of Control approved the calendar for the 2009-2010. Part of that calendar was the setting of the Regional Meetings for November 2, 3, 4, and 5, 2009. As the staff has looked at the 2009-2010 calendar, they felt would be much better to set these meetings one week later at November 9, 10, 11, and 12. This would still be one week prior to the Board of Control meeting on November 19. The schedule would be as follows:

    November 9 - Walter State (9:00 a.m.) & Knoxville Central (1:00 p.m.)
    November 10 - Chattanooga Tyner (9:00 a.m.) & Warren Co. (1:00 p.m.)
    November 11 - Hunters Lane (9:00 a.m.) & East Hickman (1:00 p.m.)
    November 12 - Memphis Board of Education (9:00 a.m.) & USJ (1:00 p.m.)

    The football championship bid proposals will be presented to the Board at the June 2009 meeting and the Spring Fling bid proposals will be presented to the Board at the August 2009 meeting. The guidelines that were sent to people requesting information in regard to the football championships will be presented to the Board.

  9. Heat Policy

    At the January Board of Control meeting there was a discussion concerning issues with heat in fall sports, but particularly football, and discussion of adoption of a heat policy. Mr. Mark Reeves of our staff met with a committee composed of the following: Mr. Alex Pinto, certified trainer who is in charge of all of our set-up and work with Baptist Sports Medicine; Mr. Gary Shepard, Athletic Director and football coach at Clarksville Academy and a representative of the Tennessee Football Coaches Association; Mr. Scott Brunette, Director of Athletics, Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools; and Mr. John Danieley, whose son had a stroke in fall football practice in 2008. His son's core temperature was in excess of 110 degrees. His son survived, but it created a great interest on the part of Mr. Danieley in helping to provide information to the school (Montgomery Bell Academy) where his son attended. This has been a great resource for both Montgomery Bell Academy and our staff in the development of educational materials to help all schools. Supplement #5 contains a copy of the Metropolitan Nashville Public School System's heat policy and Kentucky's (KHSAA) heat policy.

    Mr. Reeves will provide information to the Board regarding the work of this committee.
