For the fall of 2026, the KHSAA will again conduct a series of regional meetings to help our athletic administrators meet the membership requirement of attending this type of meeting once per year, as well as provide continuous improvement hours for administrators. With the rapid turnover among athletic administrators, changes initiated by the General Assembly, and other actions, this year’s series of meetings remains very important.

Per the membership guidelines, attendance is required of each school, but is no longer specific to the principal or principal certification. The Principal or the Designated Representative listed on the KHSAA website will count toward each requirement. Also, this workshop is on the list of items that satisfy the continuing improvement hours requirements for each Athletic Director per Bylaw 25. There is again no registration fee.

The content for the segments will include sessions on managing coach and player data for your school, a review of the KHSAA Bylaws, an update on operations and projects within the KHSAA, and many required reports and functions. There will not be a session related to Title IX as there will be at least one additional meeting specific to Title IX later in the fall.

These sessions will begin at the times listed above, and we should be able to start registration about 20 minutes before each session. This schedule continues to allow for the host school to easily accommodate the end of the school day, and for the attendees to get on the road and back to their schools.

• For the meetings from August 11 to 13, the meetings will be a bit longer as our partners from Arbiter will be in town to be involved in those meetings and answer questions around the KHSAA360 Management system.
• Please note that at least one of our sessions has a delayed start time due to the first day of school for the students at that school.

These meetings are being held at a time when feedback from the schools has shown that they are a better educational opportunity. This should also help with the extreme turnover in athletic administrators and get these individuals more information earlier in the school year but after time for final appointments to the position(s) as many hires are ongoing.

A final schedule for each day will be sent to all registered attendees. This session would be invaluable for all Principals and ADs as they familiarize themselves with, or re-familiarize themselves with, the Bylaws, competition rules, online operations, and changes. We will provide assistance with KHSAA rules and answer questions about paperwork, forms, requirements, etc., to help keep the communication lines between this office and our member schools open and informative.

A complete schedule is listed above. We hope you plan to attend or send an administrator from your school to participate. Staff will again work hard to make this content-filled meeting worthwhile for all attendees and will post EILA credit to those who attend.

We look forward to seeing you and if you have any questions about the process, please do not hesitate to contact me, or the Commissioner’s assistant, Jeanie Molloy, by email (jmolloy@khsaa.org) or phone (859) 299-5472.

* The Advance Athletic Administrators workshop will be held on a different date to be announced in the coming days. There will be additional information in a separate notice and registration about this meeting and out of respect for attendee time, the content will have minimal overlap with the regional meetings.
