Submitted by MACA on Sun, 06/04/2006 - 12:00pm

The Missouri Academic Advisory Committee met in Columbia on May 31stand worked their way through an extensive agenda. Attending were Don Arni (Northeast), Rosemary Camp (Kansas City), Jeremy Gibbs (St. Louis), Melinda Dixon (Southwest), Gary Durbin (South Central), Diana White (Northwest), and Troy Kinast (EX-OFFICIO). Eric Boles (Southeast), and Audrey Connor (Central) were not in attendance.

Among the topics discussed were:

  1. National Tournaments and Summer Events
  2. Feedback from the coaches concerning District and State tournament questions.
  3. Competition Rules
  4. General game format

The committee recommended that the MACA further pursue the topic of format change by means of the newsletter and the convention. The goal will be to get a better understanding of the level of desire for change, reasons for change, and possible changes that will address any valid reasons.
