The following appeared in the Winter 2005-06 edition of "Scout", the official publication of the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association. While not affiliated with the MPSSAA, the MSHL fully supports the views of the author:

EXECUTIVE'S CORNER
     Can anyone tell me where the line is? It keeps moving. The line I speak of is the one that separates education-based athletics from professional and big-time college sports. It is often blurred, making a distinction not an easy task.
     Unfortunately, the influence of televised professional sports, along with ad infinitum discussion on talk shows and chat rooms, has conditioned the public to see all athletics from the same point of view. High school sports seemingly have become the little brother or sister programs for the colleges and pros. Add to that the expectation of parents and peers and is it any wonder that high school athletes can become confused?
     Think of it. The most influential point of reference today’s high school varsity athlete knows is that of professional sporting events where high-paid athletes display in-your-face chest thumping, showboating, and other belligerent acts. Their behavior is intended to belittle and intimidate. That is all they have seen and so naturally it is what they have come to expect. As one emulates the other, it is not hard to see why succeeding generations willingly follow such behavior.
    In the name of image, ratings, notoriety, and endorsements, the ideals that sport is built upon can easily be cast aside. To combat this distorted view, we must look inward to define the values we seek to teach.
     As parents, coaches, and athletic leaders, we are accountable to clearly articulate the line that separates education-based athletics from ‘Show Business’. If we fail to assume that role, we will have missed a magnificent opportunity to educate by setting and adhering to a strong set of values. We must all work to find that line and at the same time remain strong enough to withstand the temptation to cross it.

Smartpuck Photography contracts with the MSHL to provide photography services to all playoff games. Please read the following announcement regarding game photos:

The photographer for the MSHL, Smartpuck Photography, helps to defray the cost of the ice slots for the MSHL Playoffs. The additional revenue helps us to maintain the number of playoff spots that we have at the end of the season. Therefore, we would ask your consideration that the parents who wish to photograph your game, to please not go into the penalty boxes, but rather shoot from other areas around the rink. The photographers from the newspapers also usually shoot from these areas, and are able to get great shots.

Game photos are generally available at the rink soon after the game is finished or at the Smartpuck Photography website. The photographer will provide a photograph for school newspapers and/or the yearbook at no charge. Please contact Smartpuck Photography directly at ptorre@atlanticbb.net or at while they are shooting at the rink.

On an unrelated note, we have had a problem where there have been multiple parents manning one penalty box. The MSHL would like to remind you that during the playoffs, we would like two parents from each team (four total) working this area. One parent from each team to man their penalty box, one scorekeeper (visiting team), and one timekeeper (home team). This will leave room for the players, and will ease the ability for those players to enter and exit the ice to serve penalties.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

Good luck to all of the teams that are advancing in the playoffs!

JVD Games should be reported to the scheduler. We will not keep statistics, but posting them on the Master Schedule will aid the league in ice time allocations and referee bills.
The MSHL uses SNAPSHOT! as the official statistics keeping software. You can download your own copy of the software from here. You can then send an exported copy of the scoresheet to the MSHL Statistician to get your game results updated that night! Use of SNAPSHOT is free. You must register the software after 30 days to use the reporting features.
