2009-2010 Rules Interpretation Meeting Schedule

Coaches and officials must possess a thorough knowledge of playing rules and an ability to interpret these rules. The League conducts statewide rules interpretation meetings prior to the season in each activity. It is the responsibility of the official and head coach to annually attend meetings for the purpose of keeping informed of rules changes and new interpretations as well as a general review of all rules and regulations.
Coaches: Beginning with the 2007-08 school year, all Head Coaches must / attend a MSHSL Pre-Season Rules Meeting. Head Coaches who do not attend must take the written rules test, and pass the test with a score of at least 80%. If neither is done the coach will be censured and the school will be fined $100.
Officials: Officials are required to attend a rules interpretation meeting each year in each activity in which they are registered.
Failure to attend a rules interpretation meeting will result in a one-year probation period in that / activity. Probation means that the official will not be eligible for assignment to post-season tournament contests in that activity.
Failure to attend a MSHSL rules meeting for two (2) consecutive years will result in a Not Qualified (NQ) rating. The individual may not officiate varsity contests during that period as a NQ official.
Failure of new officials to attend a meeting will result in an NQ rating.
Note: All meetings are held at the high school unless noted. / Both officials and coaches are expected to attend the MSHSL Rules Meeting until dismissedby the MSHSL Clinician. Late arrival or early departure will result in no credit for the meeting.
Individuals who provide false information on attendance reports will be subject to disciplinary action by the League.
