Schools required to attend compliance seminar in July-August 2009

The comprehensive revision to FHSAA Bylaws Article 3, "Membership," requires each and every member school to send one representative – either its principal, FHSAA representative or athletic director – to a compliance seminar conducted by the FHSAA staff at least once every three years.

3.3.2.3 Attendance at Compliance Seminar. A member school, at least once every three years, must be represented by either its principal, FHSAA representative, or athletic director at an FHSAA compliance seminar.


The compliance seminar, previously known as the member orientation workshop, will be held the last week of July and the first week of August, 2009, at four locations around the state. The breakdown is as follows:

July 27-28 – Ed White High School (Jacksonville)
July 29-30 – Dr. Phillips High School (Orlando)
Aug. 3-4 – Goleman High School (Miami)
Aug. 5-6 – Tampa Prep School


The seminar will be a two-day program and may require an overnight stay, depending on your school's proximity to the host school. Complete seminar information, including the schedule, will be posted on FHSAA.org in the near future.

In order to administer this new requirement and to establish a rotation for attendance so that all schools do not attend in the same year, all current member schools have been divided into three groups. Member schools required to attend a seminar this summer were notified of this requirement on a yellow flyer that was enclosed with the manuals for the winter and spring sports. You only need to attend one seminar and you may choose which one to attend. There will be no deferments this year. Schools which were granted deferment for the 2008 seminar must attend.

First-time member schools must attend the compliance seminar in both years of the provisional period before settling into the three-year rotation. The principal, FHSAA representative and athletic director – all three – must attend the seminar in the first year of the provisional period. Only one of the three individuals is required to attend in th second year.

3.2.1.1 First Year. During the first year of the provisional period:
(a) The school must be represented at an FHSAA compliance seminar by its principal, FHSAA representative and athletic director; and
(b) The school must complete and submit a self-study and evaluation of its interscholastic athletic programs in a form prescribed by the Board of Directors;

3.2.1.2 Second Year. During the second year of the provisional period:
(a) The school must be represented at an FHSAA compliance seminar by either its principal, FHSAA representative or athletic director; and
(b) The school must submit to an onsite inspection of its interscholastic athletic programs.
