2. 1/21 meeting with Mike Colbrese/Todd
Storedahl
Different
issues and concerns were discussed.
Mike/Todd suggested a meeting with all the
assigning secretary’s to resolve the assigning fee issues.
3. Amendments for 2007
All
amendments were reviewed, there are still some questions regarding interpretation
4. Girls Wrestling
Meet
at Kelso lost considerable money. Some
brackets only had three individuals
The
number of girls starting the season diminished greatly by the end of the
season. Question:
Now that girls have a state championship, next year are they still going
to compete with the boys during the regular season?
5. Officials Selection
meeting
Tim
reported that the meeting did not go as smoothly as in the past. The role of the Assigning Secretary’s needs
to be further defined. Tim handed out
for discussion a proposed set of guidelines for the Committee and Assigning
Secretary’s. The suggestion from Mike/Todd was discussed and it was felt that
meeting with some 40 different assigning secretary’s
at the same time would be counter productive.
A better solution needs to be examined. The following comments were expressed by the
Executive Board
1.
Qualifications for a state tournament assignment
a.
Three person certified
b. Pass the test
c. Do ten varsity games
2. Officials do not have to be three person
certified to do a district tournament.
3. Some associations use a rotating basis for
selecting State Officials
4. The WOA has guideline for assigning fees, but
they don’t.
5. Local associations do not have input to the
WOA
6. Too much politics
7. The WIAA needs to negotiate state wide
assigning fees.
8. Assigning fees are to be negotiated, but only
if they exceed the WOA guidelines.
9. Whose is running the ship, WOA, Local
Associations, or the WIAA?
Needless
to say there are some very strong feelings concerning the above.
6. District Tournaments
Director
Frazer asked the District IV league representatives to discus with their
leagues restructuring or combining those tournaments that are becoming less and
less financially solvent. The District would like to help develop a more
positive revenue stream back to our schools.
