Sportsmanship is a key component of this educational process and it should be a priority of every school’s athletic program.

The following story of sportsmanship was conveyed by former OFSAA Executive Director Colin Hood in the March 1995 edition of the Bulletin.

In the locker room after the game, the coach congratulated the athlete for his honesty and then told the rest of the team, “Winning is for a day, a passing thing. However, honesty, fair play, and being a good sport are lifetime matters”.

The coach was subject to all kinds of abuse from members of his school and alumni for making the decision in an important game.

Colin’s story is a classic example of sportsmanship and more importantly the education of young people through school sport. The coach’s decision took

courage and he surely knew he would be criticized by those only concerned with winning the game.

This was clearly a “teachable moment” and the coach took advantage of it to impart a lesson on his student-athletes.

It is an example of the essence of school sport and likely helped shape values the players took with them through life.

This clearly wouldn’t have happened in professional sport; there is too much money at stake. It also wouldn’t be common at most levels of amateur sport including school sport. It is, however, an excellent example of how sport can be used as means to educate students, and in the end, the students benefitted more from the coach’s decision than they would have by winning the game.

It may have just taken them a few years to realize it.

For the 2011-12 school year, a Midget will be born in 1997 or later, and may only compete at OFSAA in the Midget category for one year in Grade 9. A Junior will be born in 1996 or 1997, and a Senior will be born in 1992 or later.

The motto “Education through School Sport” forms the foundation of high school athletics in Ontario, and there are countless ways in which school sport enhances the education of students.

A high school football team trailed 14-10 with seconds to play. The team’s coach called a timeout to plan the final play of the game which was a pass to the wide receiver. The game restarted and the wide receiver caught the pass in the end zone to win the game. After the team celebrated, the athlete who caught the ball then came to the coach and informed him that he went out of bounds prior to catching the ball. The coach immediately informed the officials of the problem and the game was awarded to the other team.

Bridging the Gap Through School Sport This was expected to be the final year of a three-year grant from the Ministry of Health Promotion and Sport Canada, in which secondary school leadership students taught students in their elementary feeder schools flag football, flag rugby, and ultimate. 103 secondary schools conducted the program in 130 elementary schools during the past three years. This was a winwin situation, as it gave the leadership students an opportunity to develop their skills, introduced a new sport to the local elementary school, and provided both schools with equipment and resources so the sport could continue in future years.

This grant has been extended for one more year

to allow more schools to take advantage of this opportunity. School applications will be accepted in the following order: 1. Schools applying for the first time to conduct the ‘Bridging the Gap’ program.

2. Current schools participating in the program but working with a new elementary feeder school.

3. Current schools participating in the program but choosing a different sport.

OFSAA Sanctioning for Events

News from the OFSAA AGM

What does “OFSAA-sanctioned” mean?

• All teams/individuals participating must be eligible under OFSAA rules and regulations.

At the Annual General Meeting, OFSAA recognized the members of the Representatives' Council who are leaving in June. They are as follows:

• All competitors must be accompanied by a teacher and the OFSAA supervision policy must be followed.

When do you need OFSAA sanctioning for an event?

• If you are hosting an invitational event for Ontario schools and you want all competitors to be on an even playing field, then you should get the event sanctioned by OFSAA. All promotional materials for your invitational should use the term “OFSAAsanctioned” so that schools are aware of the eligibility and supervision requirements.

• If you are hosting an invitational/exhibition event and inviting teams/from out-of-province or U.S. schools you MUST obtain OFSAA sanctioning.

• If you are attending a sanctioned event in another province, your school requires OFSAA sanction • If you are attending any sporting event in the U.S. sanctioned by the host state or the National Federation of High Schools (NFHS) then you require OFSAA sanctioning.

Forms requesting any sanction can be found on the OFSAA website and should be submitted at least one month prior to the event you are hosting or attending.

Questions regarding sanctioning should be directed to Diana Ranken, OFSAA Sanctions Coordinator at diana@ofsaa.on.ca.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: If your school is planning on attending invitational events in another province or the US in the early fall, or hosting teams from out-of-province, be sure to get your request for OFSAA sanction in now as it is a requirement.

Check the new regulations for supervision carefully also.

All sanction forms are on the OFSAA website.

‘A Picture Worth A Thousand Words’ OFSAA 2010 – Caring, Sharing, Excelling

By Kary Roser, Student St. Mary's CSS In today’s society, sports are occasionally recognized as recreational with no true value to offer their participants.

This is not the case.

Any dedicated athlete will declare that their involvement in sport has helped them develop as a person. Through sports, one acquires discipline, work ethic, time management skills, a competitive edge, social skills, a sense of accomplishment, and long-lasting relationships with teammates, coaches and even opponents.

At first glance, this photo seems to capture a happy moment for a group of girls. After further analysis, the differences can be spotted: two schools from the same board but with different coloured medals hanging around each individual’s neck. This picture was taken after the 2010 OFSAA Girls' AAAA Basketball gold medal game.

St. Mary’s (my team) won the contest, but Bishop Tonnos was also successful.

By earning the silver medal, Tonnos performed their best in their OFSAA basketball debut, and also proved their third place ranking wrong. The game was a hard-fought battle between the teams. It was physical, intense, and every player was willing to do whatever it took to bring home the gold. St. Mary’s and Bishop Tonnos excelled in the Catholic league, GHAC region, and provincially. Both teams well represented the rising level of girl’s basketball as well as the caliber of play in the Hamilton Wentworth Catholic District School Board.

Scholarships & Awards Former OFSAA Rep Honoured at Ontario Sport Awards Congratulations to Terry O’Rourke, retired teacher-coach from South Huron District High School in WOSSAA, for receiving the Syl Apps Award at the Ontario Sport Awards on April 14, for his outstanding service to OFSAA and school sport.

and OFSAA levels. He served as President of the Huron-Perth Athletic Association, and sat on the WOSSAA Board of Directors for 20 years. At OFSAA he chaired the Classifications Committee, and continues to do so during his retirement. He also served as a member of the Sanctions and Demographics Committees.

This award is presented by the Sport Alliance of Ontario in partnership with the Ontario government and the Ministry of Health Promotion and Sport.

The OFSAA Executive nominates individuals who have served as members of the Councils or the Annual Assembly of OFSAA, have contributed to their local and Association organizations, and are active in their communities.

Terry taught at South Huron District High School for his entire 35year career, coaching boys’ and girls’ basketball, track and field, rugby, soccer, and volleyball.

His involvement in coaching also extended into the community,

where he worked with the women’s basketball Junior Development Program, served on the Selection Committee for the Ontario Women’s basketball team, and founded and directed the South Huron Basketball Camp for elementary schools.

Terry was also active in sports administration at both WOSSAA

Whenever events are held in his area, Terry volunteers to help in some capacity, and has worked on the Canada Summer Games, the Canadian Women’s Golf and the Canadian Amateur Golf tournaments, the Canadian Special Olympics, and OFSAA championships.

Terry’s calm, thoughtful decisionmaking, strong belief in, and practice of, fair play and good sportsmanship set an excellent example for the many students whom he taught and coached during his career.

OFSAA was pleased to nominate Terry and congratulate him on this prestigious award.

This picture also says a lot about sportsmanship. Sportsmanship is an athlete’s decision to show courtesy toward teammates and opponents and gracefully accept victory or defeat. At the end of the final game, both teams came together as friends, not opponents. Each individual forgot about the outcome of the game, but rather focused on celebrating their team’s accomplishments together as one.

Bill Bradley, former US Senator and NBA player said, “What’s the point of achieving anything in basketball if you can’t share it?” This picture was a way of sharing a special moment with current school teammates, former club, high school or house league teammates, and friends.

Another important value that can be learned in sports is respect and caring.

One learns to respect their coaches, teammates, officials, fans and opponents.

In order to respect one’s opponents, it is necessary to give 110% at all times.

Playing at the highest level pushes the defender to play at their best as well.

Players battle and push each other on the court, but off the court one finds a mutual respect - respect for the player and also the person they are off the court. This mutual respect was evident on that November evening, and is captured in this picture.

Both the final game and this photo demonstrate sportsmanship at its best and embody OFSAA AAAA tournament motto of ‘Caring, Sharing, and Excelling.’

Personally, it was a wonderful way to end a high school basketball career.

In addition to providing a monetary contribution, Nike also provides the bib numbers and hip numbers for all competitors at the provincial and regional levels, as well as the finish line standard and host committee clothing.

This past year Nike stepped-up their involvement by adding an "athletes village" at the events which enhanced the overall atmosphere for the participants.

Congratulations to Rubin Kataki from Merivale High School in Merivale and Allison Haggart from Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute in Toronto, chosen to be the male and female recipients of the OFSAA Winter Character Athlete Award.

Thank you to all coaches who submitted applications representing their student-athletes. This was an extremely difficult decision, as all of the applications were amazing!

Rubin Kataki (Merivale) was nominated by his coach Toni AgraniotisHouse, who says Rubin leads at his school by example, and encourages others to perform their very best.

Rubin participates in swimming, volleyball and badminton in the winter, and cross country, track and field, and cricket in the fall and spring. He has competed in OFSAA in both swimming and cross country for his school Merivale High School.

In addition to his athletic activities, Rubin is a member of his school's student and athletic council, and a few other extra-curricular organizations within his school, and also manages to find time to volunteer in his community.

"Rubin is involved in so many sports and activities it is unfathomable how he manages to maintain his high grades and never asks for extensions for school activities," said Ms. Agraniotis-House. "He is clearly committed to achieving his very best in and out of the classroom, and consistently makes mature choices to ensure he can

balance both curricular and extra-curricular activities successfully.

Our female recipient is Allison Haggart (Lawrence Park), who was nominated by her coach Ana Djuricic.

At her school, Allison participates in snowboarding in the winter, cross country in the fall, and track and field in the spring.

Allison is not only an active member of her school's snowboarding team...she initiated, developed and now runs it! After her school initially declined to support a team in 2009, Allison persisted and arranged all the details herself. She approached Ms. Djuricic to be the staff supervisor of the team, arranged for all forms to be filed out and signed, ran the dry-land portion of the training twice a week, and arranged transportation to and from training days and races.

Allison's efforts paid off when both the boys' and girls' snowboard teams at her school qualified to compete at this year's OFSAA Snowboarding Festival, where Allison took home a gold medal in the girls' Level 2 giant slalom (you can see a photo of Allison with her team on page 16).

Allison is also a member of her school's Buddy Program, where she aids in the transition of incoming Grade 9 students and acts as an ambassador for Lawrence Park.

"Allison is a natural leader for the younger students, and acts as their unofficial big sister at school, " said Ms. Djuricic. "She is committed to making Lawrence Park a safe and enjoyable experience for incoming students." www.ofsaa.on.ca

OFSAA Snowboarding Festival Camp Fortune

March 4, 2011

The OFSAA Snowboarding Festival was hosted this year

by EOSSAA at Camp Fortune, under ideal snowboarding conditions. There were 289 snowboarders from 52 schools representing eight associations in the giant slalom events at the festival.

OFSAA would like to thank the festival co-convenors, Karen Dodds and Krista PetrieWallace, from EOSSAA for a well-organized event. Thank you

also to all the volunteer officials who help made the festival such a success.

As both competitions were on the same hill, the numerous spectators were able to see both the girls’ and boys’ competitions simultaneously.

Congratulations to all the snowboarders for qualifying for the Festival through their associations. The competition was excellent.

Mary has been playing and coaching badminton for more than 25 years and is a strong reason why the badminton program is so successful at her school and why her students seem to qualify for OFSAA each year. Mary also assists in organizing tournaments and events including the Banting Birdie Bash, a large student –teacher badminton competition. Coaches at Mary's school speak to her ability to use every opportunity as a teachable moment, whether in victory or defeat, and her positive attitude carries into everything she does.

Congratulations Mary on a well deserved award.

May 12 - 14, 2011

CISAA was the host association for this year`s OFSAA Badminton Championship, which used the beautiful facilities at St. Andrew`s College in Aurora and St. Thomas Villanova College in King City. Convenor Greg Reid had many late nights and early mornings planning this year's championship, ensuring all details were taken care of and it was clear that all the athletes and coaches benefited with a great championship experience.

Site convenor Paul Bedard must also be congratulated for ensuring the facility at Villanova was in perfect shape, and coordinating matches all tournament long at the main competition site.

Day 1 saw a lot of badminton played, but at the end of the day students and coaches were able to sit back, relax, and enjoy a wonderful banquet meal which 16

included guest speaker, and OFSAA Badminton guru, Wayne King. Also at the banquet, David Meijer, OFSAA Badminton Sport Advisory Committee Chair, shared some stories about this year's Leadership in School Sport recipient, Mary Parsons (Banting Memorial HS, GBSSA), including game highlights from when they were once mixed doubles partners years ago.

All matches were well attended and crowds were appreciative of the action taking place on the court.

Congratulations is extended to all athletes in the competition, as nothing but great sportsmanship and positive play was demonstrated throughout the tournament. This is obviously a reflection of the coaches as everyone at OFSAA badminton seems to be walking around with a smile on their face, greeting each other like old friends, and creating a positive atmosphere for all involved.

OFSAA Boys' and Girls' Curling

London

Thunder Bay

March 7 - 9, 2011

Dave Pineau, Mike McCarville, Russ Wakewich and their outstanding organizing committee hosted this year's Curling Championships at two curling clubs in Thunder Bay.

The Boys’ AAAA Championship called London home in 2011, thanks to convenors Tony Marcotullio from H.B. Beal SS (WOSSAA) and Angelo Provenzano from St. Thomas Aquinas CSS (WOSSAA). Leading a strong organizing committee, Tony and Angelo set out from day 1 to ensure a positive and memorable experience for this year’s championship.

The convenors and their committee provided the curlers with a great Northwestern Ontario experience with memories that will last a lifetime. Well done!

This championship may be known for being one of the loudest OFSAA’s, as the gold medal match had the gym at H.B. Beal SS rocking. The teams from Vaughan SS (YRAA) and St. Ignatius Loyola SS (GHAC) must have had some strong fan support as the live streaming had so many followers it crashed the system! Both teams battled hard, but in the end number one seeded Vaughan SS emerged as the gold medallists.

Congratulations to team members Andrew Wiggins, Aiddian Walters, Henry Tan, Kassius Robertson, Roshane Roberts, Cy Richards Samuels, Troy Reid-Knight, Marcel Miller, Brenden Clark, Julius Antoine, Jawara Pedican, and coaches Gus Gymnopoulos and Mohamed Saleh.

Having two Italian convenors definitely ensured that the athletes would be well-fed. Angelo and Tony did not disappoint in the food department, making it a priority that everyone was treated to a tasty and filling meal at the banquet.

The girls’ champions for the second year in a row were from Grimsby DHS. Congratulations to team members Chelsea Brandwood, Jordan Brandwood, Allison Easterbrook, Mackenzie Thomas, Charlotte Tousaw, and coaches Adam Thomas and Pamela Chun.

The Leadership in School Sport Award was presented at the banquet to Dan Colfax, who has been coaching school sport for 45 years. Although much of his coaching time has been taken up by basketball, Dan has also coached gymnastics, golf, football, and tennis. He has also organized leagues' schedules, hosted three OFSAA Championships, and has acted as the WOSSAA convenor for 10 years. Dan is so dedicated to coaching that he wasn’t even present to receive his award as he was 400Km away in North Bay coaching at the Boys AA Championship.

Although St. Ignatius of Loyola lost the gold medal, in addition to their silver medal they were awarded the OFSAA Team Sportsmanship Award for their commitment to fair play and handling of both victory and defeat with a mature attitude, demonstrating respect for their opponents.

A huge congratulations and thank you must be extended to Tony and Angelo for their months of dedication to ensuring a successful event and one that will be remember by all in attendance.

Rick was assisted by two –time world champion Al Hackner and the multi-Ontario champion Kristy McCarville rink.

Russ Wakewich from St Ignatius Loyola and Karen Saarimaki from Geraldton were the winners of the OFSAA Leadership in School Sport Award in recognition of their contribution to high school curling.

Windsor played host to the 2011 OFSAA Girls' Gymnastics Championship, and the competition took place at the Forest Glade Arena. Anna Campigotto and her organizing committee did a fantastic job at running the event. Thank you to Anna and her crew.

Everything ran smoothly at the championship, including a new schedule set-up that showcased the open aerobic gymnastics portion of the competition. Aerobic gymnastics combines aerobic moves with gymnastics and dance. It is a fun and energetic experience for both spectators and athletes.

Ottawa/Nakkertok Cross-Country Skiing Club played host to this year’s 2011 OFSAA Nordic Skiing Championship. Cameron Jones and Robert D’Arras of Sir Robert Borden H.S. (NCSSAA) lead a team of enthusiastic volunteers in hosting a memorable championship that continued to raise the bar for nordic skiing.

This year also included the inaugural paranordic event, something the Sport Advisory Committee hopes will help promote and grow the sport across the province.

Following the conclusion of races on day one, athletes and coaches attended the championship banquet at Algonquin College which included inspiring guest speaker Ray Zahab.

Following the feeding frenzy that occurs when you pack hundreds of hungry skiers into a room after a day of racing, the crowd listened intently as the Leadership in School Sport Award was presented.

A sea of smiling faces and thunderous applause greeted surprised winner Annette Wrigley from St. Mary’s DCVI (WOSSAA). Annette has been instrumental in the success of the nordic skiing program at her school and creating a positive experience that has athletes eager for the start of the next racing season. Annette also volunteers her time on the OFSAA Sport Advisory Committee for Nordic

Skiing, where she has been an active member for the past four years.

Although day two of the championship provided temperatures just below the freezing mark, a cold wind and grey clouds made the day much cooler for the relays.

The always exciting relays did not disappoint the great crowd that was present though, as they were treated to nail biting finishes, crazy costumes, and the non-stop sound of enthusiastic cheering for all athletes involved.

Possibly in a fitting manner, Huntsville HS, who will host in 2012, took home both the junior and senior combined banners. Congratulations to all skiers on excellent racing and being great role models for sportsmanship in high school sport.

Once again we would like to thank Cameron and Robert for their leadership and commitment in hosting a fantastic championship.

This year, Kevin Wong from GHAC took over from Michelle Harshman, last year’s OFSAA Swimming Championship convenor. Kevin had some big shoes to fill, but he did not disappoint! The championship was run with near perfection.

Thank you to Kevin and his organizing committee for all of their hard work and enthusiasm with organizing such a large event.

Kevin is not only this year’s OFSAA Swimming Championship convenor, he is also the OFSAA Swimming Sport Advisory Committee chair, and a swimming official for the paraswimming and able-bodied divisions. Thank you to Kevin for volunteering his time to all of these commitments.

The 2011 OFSAA Leadership in School Sport award was given to Paige Murphy from Robert Bateman SS in GHAC. Paige runs one of the largest and most successful paraswimming programs in Ontario. Her team was awarded the first ever Paraswimming Division banner at

Mary-Jane Gillier-Symes opened up her school and two other schools within a five-minute drive in order to host this year's OFSAA Girls’ AA Volleyball Championship.

Participants couldn’t believe the close-proximity of all the sites. This closeness was not only felt distancewise, but also between the athletes, as 20 teams across the province cheered and played together.

Thank you to Mary-Jane and her amazing organizing committee for putting on such a fantastic event!

Congratulations also to Mary-Jane for receiving the OFSAA Leadership in School Sport Award. Mary-Jane was surprised to win, but many in the audience watching her accept her award knew how appropriate of a choice she was after her selfless dedication over the years to high school sport and student-athletes.

Local team É.S. Gisele-Lalonde (NCSSAA), an underdog from the start, fought their way to the title of champions.

Congratulations to athletes, Nathalie Drouin, Andrea Maranger, Ana Martin, Gabrielle Martinellie, Danika Chilibeck, Catherine Loranger, Rebecca Roy, Selina

The championship organizing committee headed up

by Pierre Blanchard and Melissa Amadio put their heart and soul into running this championship and it was obvious to athletes, coaches and spectators.

One of the highlights of the championship was the banquet held at Planet Hollywood in Niagara Falls.

Glitz and glamour filled the room as the athletes and coaches, dressed to the nines, dined in style.

Burgess, Sebrina Roy, and coaches Bianca Girard and Marcel Martin for your exciting win.

The Team Sportsmanship award was given at the end of the championship to St. Thomas Aquinas SS in Oakville (GHAC). Congratulations to the athletes and coaches from this school for providing a great example of sportsmanship to us all.

During the banquet, Sue Kicul, from E.L. Crossley SS (SOSSA) was honoured with the Leadership in School Sport award. Sue has been working as a teacher-coach for 30 years, and coaches not only volleyball, but track and field, swimming, curling and tennis.

“Sue is always the first to volunteer for anything when there is a need,” said convenor Melissa Amadio.

Congratulations to two-time members of the gold medal winning team from É.S. publique Louis-Riel (NCSSAA) who took home the OFSAA Girls’ AAA Volleyball Championship including; Emily Tousignant, Vicky Savard,

Kristy McGregor-Bales, Melanie L'Heureux, Kara Anderson, Josee Maurice, Catherine Amyot, Nathalie Campeau, Karina Czechowski, Pascale Nadeau, and coaches Natacha Paquette, and Francois St-Denis. The Louis-Riel team was a force to be reckoned with, and teams will be training hard next year in anticipation of meeting up again with the Louis-Riel Rebelles.

Congratulations to the athletes and coaches from Patrick Fogarty SS in Orillia (GBSSA) who won the OFSAA Team Sportsmanship award. This was the school’s first trip to an OFSAA championship since its inception 25 years ago and what a memorable first trip!

March 8 - 9, 2011

This year's OFSAA Girls' AAAA Volleyball Championship was hosted in Newmarket, and the committee from Huron Heights SS, headed by Rob Archibald, did a fantastic job in organizing the event. This crew pulled out all the stops to ensure a great experience for all participants.

Over 850 of the province’s best high school wrestlers travelled to Sudbury for the 2011 OFSAA Wrestling Championship. Sudbury Arena was the host site, home of the Sudbury Wolves of the OHL, and included 10 mats set up to handle close to 2,000 total matches.

Earl Cote from Confederation S.S., along with his organizing committee, worked long and hard arranging accommodation, soliciting sponsors and generally ensuring a great OFSAA experience.

Sinclair SS from LOSSA played with all they had through all four sets in the final gold medal game to become 2011 champions! Cries of joy and exhaustion echoed through the gym when the last point was won. Sinclair also may have the most excited and enthusiastic coaches we have ever seen, which was great to watch.

After two days of excellent competition, Heart Lake from ROPSSAA won the boys team championship, while L’Essor from SWOSSAA captured both the girls and combined championships. Congratulations!

Ted Fryia of Sir James Dunn High School in Sault Ste Marie was presented with the Leadership in School
