INFORMATION UPDATE

  • Apologies in advance for the delay in getting this information to you.

But all should be accurate now.

OFFICIALS AVAILABILITY AND GAME SCHEDULING

  • THANK YOU to those schools that cooperated and either voluntarily scheduled on Thursday or Saturday. We could not manage this week without cooperation.
  • From this point, ANY Friday night game will only have five officials. If you desire 7, select Thursday or Saturday.
  • Most of the matchups were determined more than a week ago, and thanks to the nearly 65% of you who got your information submitted this week.

10//24/23- Football Playoffs Update

Football Blog Updates

The following is to update schools regarding the 2023 Football Playoffs, with particular emphasis on Rounds 1-4.   

OFFICIALS AVAILABILITY AND GAME SCHEDULING

Last week, we held a conference call with our assigners, with the following data gleaned from that call. 

  • Clearly, they feel comfortable with assigning, at most, between 85 and 88 crews for the first round if all contests had five officials. We have 95 games currently scheduled. 
  • Simply put, we will need to have some schools play on Thursday night or Saturday night if we are going to be able to ensure that full crews of officials are assigned. 
  • And be mindful that last year, we had 20 schools desire a full crew of seven officials for the first round. 
  • Simply put, the supply/demand equation is not balanced right now. 
  • We have around 80 first-year officials and for the most part, the assigners are not as comfortable with those officials in […]

10/17/23- Wrestling Schools Reminded about Needed Information, Girls’ Wrestling; Wrestling Survey Results

Athletic Department Blog Updates

ROSTER UPDATE

Member schools are reminded that if you are going to compete in Girls’ Wrestling in competition against other girls’ wrestling teams, it is imperative that the School Control Panel be updated to indicate that you will be doing such. Much information will need to be gathered from those schools as postseason logistics are formulated. It is the staff’s intention to have a model near final to report this data to the Board of Control at their November meeting as this first year of an implemented championship in girls’ wrestling is executed. Such things as qualifying rounds and sites cannot be determined until there is a realistic estimate of those schools competing.

In addition, schools are reminded that (per the notice earlier this month at https://ly.khsaa.org/ndaa), the rosters for girls’ competition and boys’ competition are separate. In the case of a girl who competes in girls-only competition AND boys/coed competition, be sure they […]

We hope these scholarships help cover the ever-rising cost of higher education for those striving for excellence in athletics and agriculture.”

10/06/23- Football Playoff Schedule Request and Football RPI Clarification and Clean-up

Football Blog Updates

FOOTBALL PLAYOFF SCHEDULING REQUEST

As teams start qualifying for the playoffs, we are asking for schools’ help in scheduling, especially in the first round. As all are aware, our supply of officials is not at the levels we were during the early 2000s when we had abundant numbers. Many of our associations, including some of our larger groups, have struggled to return to even their pre-COVID legals in terms of numbers. As such, staffing that first round which is always difficult, is likely very problematic, especially if all teams insist on trying to play on the same Friday night. Our assigners are very conscious of the need to only use those that feel are “playoff ready”, and really need your help on these dates.

There are distinct advantages to playing on Thursday or Saturday that negate the usual concerns about different preparation weeks, etc. Teams seem to be very adept at moving games during fall […]

10/03/23 – KHSAA Hires Longtime Official Scott Bottoms as Supervisor of Officials Licensing

2023-2024 News Releases

The Kentucky High School Athletic Association introduced the newest addition to its staff on Tuesday with the hiring of Supervisor of Officials Licensing Scott Bottoms.

“He will be vital in advancing our implementation of several new initiatives to help garner more officials and retain many of those having second thoughts about continuing with today’s contest environment,” Tackett said. “And though the KHSAA does not employ officials or supervise their game-by-game activities, we will be able to use his expertise to streamline processes and make a concerted effort to ensure no contests fail to be played due to a lack […]
