The Kids Executive Council met on Sunday, January 19th in Salina. Just a few highlights from the meeting:
The Kids Division has approximately $110,000 in checking and savings. Mike Juby asked about purchasing 10 additional track wrestling score clocks for $25,000. This would give USAW-Kansas a total of 54 clocks. The board approved the purchase of the 10 additional clocks. Richard Salyer is the scheduler of the clocks and the clocks are located in three locations around the state.
Keith Ashpole made a report on officials. We have 26 new Kids registered officials this year. He is working with Joe Knect to get a photo of each registered official so that coaches can have more information when they are selecting officials for the State series. Keith and Joe are also working on a post tournament form to be sent in following all sanctioned tournaments. This will also help track officials performance.
The re-districting process was referred to a committee consisting of the Asst. State Director and the four District Directors. No action was taken on re-districting.
The Borderline Bandits will be allowed a variance to participate in District 1 instead of District 3.
