Michigan Sports Sages—Notable

News:

Since 1954 the Michigan Sport Sages (Sages) have been meeting with fellow coaches and others whose careers have involved Michigan, high school,

and college athletics.

Sages includes retired and active coaches, athletic directors, school ad-ministrators, journalists, announcers,

statisticians, and friends.

Membership requires the individual to be 50 years of age and have served 15

or more years in Michigan athletics.

The annual gathering is held at Boyne Mountain resort, the only host of Sages

events since the late 1950s. Sages President Carl Latora (center) poses with Chaplin Dave Welcome, 2019 Speaker Lomas Brown, Latora, Humanitarian of the Year, Dick Comar and Board

Member Tom Seroczynski, following the 2019 Banquet at Boyne Mountain.

Planning Ahead for Re-turn to Sports, Other Activities By Michael Koester, M.D. on May

13, 2020

Given the unprecedented and fre-

quently changing events of the past

several weeks, there is some hesitan-

cy in writing about the COVID-19 pan-

demic. However, there are some im-

portant issues that administrators and

coaches should be considering. There-

fore, realizing that some of this infor-

mation may be outdated by the time

this issue is published, following are

several important areas for considera-

tion.

August 4-6, are the dates for the 2020 gathering, where members renew friend-ships, participate in golf, tennis, horse-shoes, Euchre, “bull sessions” and par-take in two banquet dinners. Sage of the Year and Humanitarian of the Year are announced, new members are in-ducted and membership milestones

recognized.

The Wednesday evening banquet fea-tures a speaker who shares a message, generally with stories drawn from the speaker’s experience in the athletic

world or personal adventures.

Folks interested in joining the Sages are invited to contact Larry Wegener, Exec-

utive Secretary

([email protected]) or Bill Bupp, Treasurer ([email protected]) for an

application.

The purpose of the Michigan Sports Sages shall be to meet in fellow-ship, to renew acquaintances and to perpetuate the tradition of achievement and leadership in the fields of athletics and recreation in the State of Michigan.

There are seven areas coaches, athlet-

ic directors and school administration

need to consider as programs return to

school campuses.

Back to “normal”

Current Activity and Exer-

cise

Return to Sports

Sports Physicals

Budget Concerns and Ef-

fects Upon Athletics

Opportunity for Research

Plan to Adapt

Prepare athletic administrators, coach-

es, athletes spectators, and communi-

ties that if sports do begin, there will

be a new landscape that may include

things like temperature checks before

practice, wearing masks, no fans in

the stands during games, a shortened

season, or the risk of having to sus-

pend play for a week or two if one or

more team members become infected.

Normal? No. But, better than not play-

ing at all.

The Goldie Bateson Service

Award was established in 1992

in recognition of the unlimited

and outstanding service, time

and dedication demonstrated

by Goldie Bateson to the LPGA

Midwest Section, the LPGA and

the game of golf.

Goldie Bateson Service Award

2020 Award Winner

Debbie Williams-Hoak

"To receive an award in honor of Goldie

Bateson makes me feel so wonderful.

She was so instrumental in paving the way

for so many of the opportunities that we

have today as LPGA Teaching Profession-

als and I am so grateful to her for all that

she worked for and accomplished.

I feel a kindred spirit to her as we have

some neat similarities in our lives and that

is very meaningful to me.

Anytime you receive an award in honor of

someone like Goldie Bateson, it really hum-

bles you to be recognized as a representa-

tive of all that she stood for." I am extreme-

ly grateful and proud to receive this award-

thank you!"

Positive Athlete has launched

free opportunities for coaches &

student athletes.

There new videocast, Lessons In

Positivity, has just launched, and

it is all about current and former

professional and Olympic ath-

letes encouraging your student-

athletes.

I've put together a little sneak

peak of what it looks like, and

think it will be so valuable for your

coaches to share with their ath-

letes as a way to stay engaged

with them over the summer.

Right now our plan is to release

these every two weeks -- with the

possibility of them becoming

more frequent as time goes on!

Our next new episode comes out

on Tuesday with Colton Parayko

from the Stanley Cup Champion

St. Louis Blues.

Would love to hear your feed-

back on what you think and what

you would like to see discussed!

Greetings NHSACA Board

Members: Normally we would

all be recovering from our Na-

tional Convention this week

and feeling great about seeing

each other and serving the

Finalists and Hall of Fame In-

ductees.

We would be saying, “Job Well

Done” and “I can’t wait till next

year”.

As we all know, today is not the

same as yesterday. We are not

free to live as we did.

We miss seeing our families,

friends and co-workers. We

miss the excitement of going to

sporting events, concerts,

church and community events.

Zoom and Microsoft Teams

meetings have become the

norm.

Now that I have addressed the

negative, let’s look at the posi-

tive.

All of the Finalists and Hall of

Fame Inductees that have con-

tacted me are EXCITED for

next summer.

Most of them rolled their regis-

tration fees over. Darin, Ted

and I are working diligently in

preparation for next summer.

We have accomplished many

fantastic things.

Our executive committee has

continued to meet and provide

leadership for our Association

and steer us into the future.

We will have one of the abso-

lute best conventions in

NHSACA history next year in Lincoln.

What is very exciting to me is the

work that will be done by our Board

during the next 11 months.

Forry Flaagan is leading our sport

chairs in a new outreach effort with

our Finalists.

Forry and the sport chairs will identify

a topic of conversation each month

that each sport chair will have with

their Finalists.

This may be accomplished through

emails, zoom meetings or other medi-

ums. T

he goal is to keep our Finalists excit-

ed about the upcoming event, keep

our sport chairs engaged and to build

relationships between our sport chairs

and their Finalists.

President Ted will also be working

with the Hall of Fame Committee to

start something similar for the Hall of

Fame Inductees.

Ted has also been the leading voice

in the executive committee for ener-

gizing our entire board to continue the

work of NHSACA outside of our con-

vention week.

To this end, the executive committee

has identified tasks and goals for

each of our six standing committees

to accomplish. Ted has contacted the

co-chairs of each committee with

these goals and Ted and I will support

the committee co-chairs and their full

committees in any ways necessary.

The growth of NHSACA is dependent

on the energy each one of our board

members put into our association. For

NHSACA to move beyond our current

footprint and to continue the growth

we have made we need to support

our mission 12 months a year. We

have the most talented Board of Di-

rectors of any coaching association in

the country.

If we all answer the call and put in

a few hours a month we will see

the results.

The co-chairs of our committees

will be in touch with you. Virg has

been busy keeping our past presi-

dents engaged and communi-

cating with each other too.

In fact, Virg’s next adventure is to

bring our past presidents together

in Zoom meetings.

Now Virg will be the first to tell you

he doesn’t know how to organize a

Zoom meeting, he is showing that

it is leadership that counts.

Virg has brought me on board to

assist him with this. Thank you

Virg. National High School Athletic

Coaches Association, 5057 Rose

Creek Pkwy S, Fargo, ND 58104

PH. 701-570-1008

[email protected] Virg had

great timing because following the

direction of Ted and the executive

committee, I have established a

Pro Zoom account which will allow

NHSACA to hold unlimited meet-

ings on Zoom.

It is our intention that our commit-

tees, sport chairs, past presidents

and others will have the ability to

use the NHSACA Zoom account to

hold meetings for NHSACA and

not have to worry about timing out

after 40 minutes.

As educators, many of you have

this access through your school

already, if not, you will now have

access.

Please contact me if and when

you would like to utilize this. I hope

you have a great July 4th holiday

and that you find some time to

relax and enjoy the weekend.

Yours in Coaching, Dave Dave

Michigan High School Coaches Association Distinguished Service Award is one of our high-

est awards for services and contributions to sports in the state of Michigan.

The MHSCA Distinguished Service Award:

MHSCA recognizes individuals and organizations who have provided extraordinary service to educational

athletics, the advancement student athletes, coaches, or those who serve interscholastic athletics through its Distin-

guished Service Awards.

The Distinguished Service Award (DSA) is given to a person (or persons), either volunteer or staff, who have

exhibited valuable professional service (within the MHSCA or among its association membership) including academical-

ly, supportive, service, or assistance distinction at any level of interscholastic athletics. These criteria are good

measures of acceptable candidates and help to assure that recipients have a wide range of "service" that they provide

to the profession of interscholastic athletics. Nominations should be submitted on an individual basis, not by a group or

on behalf of constituent groups (conferences, affiliates, assemblies, committees, etc.).

The MHSCA Distinguished Service Award does not need to be awarded each year. This award should be

bestowed only when the MHSCA Board of Directors committee decides that nominations warrant presentation of the

award. This award may be given posthumously.

· To recognize person who has positively impacted interscholastic athletics in a significant way;
