1 Volume 19, No. 4 SERVING MICHIGAN'S COACHES December 2015 December Recruiting Night Events Continue to Grow EXTRA POINT Matt King, Outside Linebackers Coach at Olivet College, describes the program at the MIAA school for a group of prospects at the Carman Ainsworth Recruiting Night, Tuesday, December 8. he MHSFCA finished its December Recruiting Nights with the Night at Walled Lake Western on Thursday, 10 December. WLW was the last of nine Recruiting Nights held across Michigan during the first two weeks of December. The 2015 round of Recruiting Nights kicked off in Grayling on December first. The Association s first Recruiting Fairs were held in December of 2011 and drew coaches from 28 colleges and 65 high schools to seven events. This Fall, nine high school locations saw 127 high school coaches visit 34 colleges. While we didn t keep track of prospects attendance in 2011, the number of prospects that attended the events was just a handful. This year s Recruiting Nights saw over 530 prospects (and many of their parents) attend the nine events. The Recruiting Nights are designed to bring high school coaches together with college coaches in a relaxed, out-of-school atmosphere. In the first part of the evening, high school coaches seat themselves at cafeteria or library MHSFCA Membership runs January - December visit: MHSFCA.com continued on page 4 Inside: Important Dates...2 Region Contacts...2 Newsletter Delivery...3 Glazier Clinic...5 Regional Coach of Year Voting...6 Regional Directors Duties...7 Kids Should Play Football...7 All Star Game...8 Quick Lane Bowl...8 Academic All State Teams...9 Academic All State Individual...10 Assistant Coach Awards...12 Women of the Year Awards...12 Reading Awards...12 Leadership Awards...12 Regional Coach Awards...13 State Coach of the Year State Champs...14 Honorary Awards...15 Detroit Lions Coach of the Year...15 Clinic Registration Form...17 Leadership Conference...18 Wing-T Clinic...20 Youth Football Clinic...21 Lifetime Membership...23 Member Benefits...23 Membership Application...24

4 December 2015 MHSFCA NEWSLETTER Page 4 December Recruiting Night Events continued from page 1 tables and college coaches come to them to get information on potential prospects and to network. Even in years when a high school may not have a viable prospect for a particular college, the visit helps to establish a relationship between the coaches, something that s difficult to do during the school day. In the second part of the evening, prospects - freshmen through seniors - and their parents enter the facility and move between the colleges displays, meeting the college coaches or representatives and filling out information sheets for those colleges in which they have an interest. Prospects and parents learn about the football programs, but also find out about admissions procedures, costs and financial aid. The Association thanks the coaches of the nine high schools who hosted this year s Recruiting Nights (most of whom have hosted since the beginning): Tim Sanchez, Graying; David Janicki, Hartford; David Howes, Escanaba; Noel Dean, Lowell; Gary Griffith, Troy; Jerry Parker, Carman Ainsworth; Scott Farley, Jackson; Mark Tyler, Edsel Ford; Mike Zdebski, Walled Lake Western. While we still have a lot of high school coaches who haven t taken advantage of the Recruiting Nights (for some the distances are too great or the schedule just doesn t work), more and more MHSFCA member coaches are finding the Recruiting Night experience rewarding for themselves and especially for their athletes and their athletes parents. We hope this will continue next fall.

Steve Wilson Elm Fruitport, MI swilson.fpt@gmail.com Yes, Kids Should Play Football! Brad Bush, Chelsea High School eadlines about concussions in football have the game under attack. The truth is the game has never been safer. Rules changes, equipment improvements, and practice and game rules have made high school football and athletics a great option for young people to play. Playing high school sports teaches young people life lessons. Our commitment to keeping youth, middle school and high school football safe is real. Many of the things you see in the media are related to issues that occurred in the NFL in past years. The commitment of the MHSAA and National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) has made high school football a safe and fun game for young people. As a football dad, I cannot imagine the high school experience of my son without the game of football. If you have concerns about your son or daughter participating in the game of football, please review the information included in the links below. If you ever have questions about football or athletics in general, please contact your local youth, middle school or high school coach or the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association at MHSFCA.com.
