Welcome to our new schools this 2012-13 bowling season! We are excited to announce that we have had ten new teams show interest in adding bowling this season.

We, at the KHSAA office, are working at being flexible and open-minded to change and we know that schools are doing the same.
We have received several emails asking about regional information. Please read this information carefully and let us know if there are any changes that need to be made to the regional host. This information was taken directly from the plans turned in by schools last season.
Regional Competition dates are January 22 through February 2, 2013.

11/19/12 – Cheer Rosters Entry Online
This is a reminder to cheer coaches to check with your Athletic Director to make sure your cheer team rosters are entered online through the KHSAA website. We ask that rosters be entered by Dec. 1 as we prepare for regional competitions. Please have any individual that could represent your school entered online (in the event you want to switch out a member due to injury, etc.). Rosters will be locked down Dec. 15 and no names may be added. If you are entering two teams in competition, make sure all names are entered. Athletic Directors enter cheer rosters the same as any other roster – using the “Schools Log-in” link on the KHSAA website.
11/15/2012 – Information about Wrestling Realignment for 2013-2014
With the growth of wrestling (more than 15 schools have added in last seven years), and four new programs are starting this year, it is time to realign Wrestling. Many of the regions are taking more than one day to compete and have little room for growth and expansion of new programs. In addition, with the NFHS rules restricting athletes to five bouts in a day (including forfeits), the size of the bracket makes it problematic when they become so large and mandate a second day.
The information about this realignment is at www.khsaa.org/wrestling. Click on the link to Realignment. Commentary and feedback will be accepted from the member schools by clicking this link, http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Wrestling_20132014_Alignment_Survey through January 22, 2013 prior to planned approval of a final alignment by the Board of Control on January 28, 2013.
If you have specific questions, contact Asst. Commissioner Michael Barren at the KHSAA.
11/14/12 Basketball Rules Mobile App Now Available

11/04/12 – Results of 2011-2012 Football Playoff Format Survey of Member Schools
In light of seemingly endless discussion about possible alternative formats for the football playoffs, it seems prudent to be sure the public is reminded of the results of a 2011-2012 survey of the membership regarding this issue. Clearly the consensus is that there is not consensus. Unfortunately, each respondent tends to look at the issue from the lens of their own situation. This data will continue to be reviewed, and alternatives will always be on the table for discussion. In the same way that what was right in 1985 is not likely right today, today’s system may not be the best for tomorrow.
The results are as follows:
