This page contains the minutes from the 2003-2004 basketball board meetings. 04/21/03- Attendees: John Adejunmobi, Jack Brown Jon Decker, Jim Eckler, Mike Hegarty, Mike Crosslin, Matt Geer The next meeting dates are 05/12/2003, 05/21/2003, 06/04/2003 FHSAA Field Clinic - The board discussed a proposal from Jeff Amper to bid on the 2003 state field clinic as a combined effort between the two associations. The discussion was voted unanimously against as the Lake Region officials are bidding for the clinic, as they hosted it three years ago, and the WCOA has excellent rapport with Lake Region, which should not be compromised. The WCOA will be in line for the 2004 clinic on the three year rotation. Discussed the 2003 WCOA camp at USF 3-crew camp scheduled for father's day weekend: clinicians mostly confirmed, 41 current campers registered, members identified to contact about attending camp, classroom topics to be fleshed out at next meeting, filming and review of films to be arranged. Court schedules will be review over the next four weeks, the groups must ensure that all funds received are used for basketball activities, the classification of campers will occur next meeting, and a schedule of games for Sunday will be finalized. The guest speaker still needs to be determined. Jim Eckler will contact the WCOA member clinicians who have not committed. Mike Crosslin will review Lake Region's availability with Alan Reed. Camp evaluation techniques : The board will review the method of preferred for provided timely and receptive feedback to campers, so as to be able to present information that will allow the campers to improve or recognize areas which need to be addressed. The camp will make use of training films, classroom sessions and evaluator-camper film feedback to bolster critiques and receptiveness. Officials evaluation during the season: We will have a better defined group of evaluators who will provide accurate and timely feedback. Suggestions to critiques are during the half time of the varsity game, through as phone call initiated by the person being evaluated. or via online forms, preferably through a one on one feedback. The evaluations committee will review a demo of All Sports Officiating to determine if their online evaluation will suffice. Danny Vasquez will present a proposal at one of the next summer meetings. The visibility of some officials is a problem and the board will investigate the purchase of a camcorder as well as obtaining game tapes from selected coaches. Student Officials - The board discussed a proposal from randy Sterns to have some of his teenage basketball players participate in the summer camps. Jon Decker has contacted the FHSAA about liabilities and insurance; waiting on a response. These players may be candidates for the FHSAA mentoring program. Another avenue for them could be the rec leagues and the University of Tampa summer camp. Summer Leagues - The board voted to provide $500 from WCOA Basketball funds to pay for a qualified summer assigner in order to provide the high schools with give back during the off season, yet maintaining a high visibility, while ensuring that the officials assigned to games are held accountable as they are during the regular season. Jon Decker will work with Jerry Lambert to discuss this proposal.
