Message from the President February 2010 Fellow Coaches: As we enter
the final part of soccer season 2009-2010, I can’t help but think about how far
our sport has advanced in the last two decades. I just finished an Executive Council meeting and have received official
approval for some funding of our soccer all-star event in July. Can you
believe it? The LHSAA and the LHSCA are
now treating soccer as a full-fledged LHSAA sport. Those of you who have followed soccer through the past 25-plus years
know that it has been a long process to receive this recognition. While we
still have some work to do, I feel very confident that we now have a voice! Now to the
end-of-season business: (1) Thank
you to Sean Esker and Chad Vidrine, our two vice-presidents. They have spent many hours communicating with
you with reminders and answers. They both
really love working for you and the sport, and so do I. (2) There
is much information that must be gathered and sent to the LHSAA, including district
certification reports, district records, division records, and overall records.
Each playoff qualifying team also must
pay $26 to the LHSAA. Please refer to
instructions that have been sent by Sean and Chad. (3) Coaches
will rank the playoff teams in their respective divisions through the principal’s
secure lhsaaonline.org website. If you
are not familiar with this process, you will need to become familiar very quickly.
Coaches’ rankings were extremely successful
last year because of the diligence of our coaches. (4) It is
not too early to begin the nomination process for all-state and the other end-of-season
awards. Forms are available on this website. (5) Academic
all-state is still being certified by the LHSSCA this year. Please send the forms from our website to Sean
Esker and Chad Vidrine for girls and boys, respectively. (6) Once
again, Sean Esker will conduct the Girls’ All-State process and Doug Hamilton
will conduct the Boys’ All-State process. Nominations and questions should be directed there regarding that
process. (7) Make
plans to attend the LHSSCA annual meeting to be held at Menard High School in
Alexandria on March 6, 2010 at 1 pm. (8) With
all of this selection going on, please begin to consider which seniors you would
like to nominate for the second annual All-Star Classic on July 10, 2010! Nominations will be sent directly to the LHSAA
this year. See their form at lhsaa.org.
There will be some differences to the
process this year, and we will attempt to keep every member coach well-informed. (9) A final
reminder – please join the LHSSCA. You
must be a member in order to nominate and vote. Membership is slightly down from our previous high percentage, but
it’s not too late to join! Doug
Hamilton President,
LHSSCA |
