CIAC Rules and College Recruiting

[Unregistered]

Some here feel the CIAC isn't overreaching at all. They are doing the job they were created to do.

You go run all the leagues and make sure all the schools follow the rules about player eligibility, recruiting. playing rules for every sport, locating and cementing contracts for all the playing venues needed for post-season. You negotiate the umbrella insurance policies that have to be put into place.

Go ahead. I'm sure you would be far more effective at it than the entire CIAC.

You left out raising nearly a million$ in sponsorships and donations to help keep fees down

Op poster of ciac laundry. I am glad I open eyes to the scam. 72 bucks per player. Do you think this country would be better with every ct athlete giving 72 bucks for Houston relief? Putting the money way for thier kids college education, etc. it all adds up....classic deflection is to break a big number down to a smaller number.

Bottom line is besides seeding a tournament, ciac does nothing. Someone posted something about anti bullying....who are they kidding... ciac does nothing to protect kids from bullying. They do nothing to help student athletes. They put restrictions on student athletes and put ct athletes at a disadvantage. 279k and most don't know her from Adam. What have ciac done to help student athletes in the last 5 years?

I'm sorry but it appears that you lack the knowledge, experience and insight to contribute to a meaningful conversation on this topic.

The MIAA which is the equivalent organization in Massachusetts serves over 222,000 athletes at 372 schools for $6.2 million. Their exec director makes $175,000. Their dues are less too.

So yes it could be done more effectively than $7 million ... a neighboring state with more athletes and schools does it. the executive director making more than she'd did as a principal or gym teacher is a JOKE

1. First of all the don't run leagues. There are conferences do that.
2. They don't make sure the schools follow the rules. The schools self report or are turn in by other schools (yes Shelton that's you).
3. The only rule on issues when they come to them. How difficult is that. Although they rarely show any common sense when ruling
4. Majority of the sites are at schools. The only sites they secure are championship sites, which are usually at the same site
5. Insurance. Piece of cake.

Although to be fair the MIAA exec director makes $245,000 when adding in all income. This is still less than CT which is a much smaller organization.

Negotiate unmbrella policies. When was the last time someone told you they were exhausted from negotiating with thier insurance company. They probably get wined and dined for the business, if they even negotiate umbrella policies. Who here has heard of ciac insurance covering an injured player?

Ct gets other income as well....so you need to add that if you want and apples to apples comparison.

Either way, that is a lot of money for a 9-5 public servant who supports athletics, which is not running during a good portion of the year. I would like to understand her particular area of expertise and what that expertise has done for the state of Ct athletes.

She's educated. Coached. Was a high school principal. So, she's not underqualified. And, her particular area of expertise is facilitating others to think.

Did that it's apples to apples after I added back MIAA other income. Mass exec director makes less and has more schools and athletes

She makes twice as much money as a principal ... think about that for a second

With less stress and responsibilities

More responsibility. She owns your kids' athletic wares. Her counterparts in MA, NY, and NJ do not. That added responsibility is worth at least an extra 75 large, plus danger pay.

$ 72.00 per student per year in CT. And yet you complain.

No complaint. I was all but saying she should get a raise, and so the per-student cost should go up to cover that. And a medal. She should deffo get a medal.

Other state organizations also still govern athletes. You're just pi$$y about the no club rule during the HS season. That's why you come on and complain about it every year

They have no business implementing a no-club rule. It's overreach. And, because they don't enforce it regularly, it's useless. But, by all means, you go ahead and follow it.
