Football Advisory Committee Meeting                                                                             

Held December 8, 2011

 

 

1.      Recommend that the MSHSAA staff investigate every possible way to eliminate the Monday-Wednesday, Saturday playoff games schedule during the football season. 

 

2.      Recommend that the football districts for 2012 be released in the spring rather than January 25, the date they have been released in the past. 

**3.      Recommend that in Class 6 only, the playoff system would be arranged as follows:  Rotation between District 1 plays 2; 3 plays 4; next year 1 plays 3; ;2 plays 4.  In the next cycle, if there are no school changes, the third year would be 1 plays 4 and 2 plays 3.  The rotation would then start over again. 

**4.      Recommend to have the number of quarters available in regular season football increase from 50 to 60 (or 6 times the number of games played at the highest level).  Special Teams would still stay as counting 1 quarter.  Send to Sports Medicine Advisory Committee and Athletic Directors for review.
