Provincial Championships are always fun and a great experience for the student athlete participants. Our member schools hosted some great events during the last two weeks of November. It is always great to see schools that have their elementary students ‘adopting’ a team and cheering them on. Some schools asked the teams to come to classrooms and read to students, while others studied the home towns of participating schools. Live webcams were at many of the championships, along with some super Opening Ceremonies and motivating speakers at the banquets. Getting other students involved in the hosting of the Championships, from scorers and timers, to announcers, to school bands, and web developers, to canteen staff, all bring a sense of unity to the school as well as a sense of Pride.
The MHSAA website received over 1.5 million hits in November, and most of those were looking for Provincial results.
The participants will long remember being part of the Provincials, and it is a credit to the coaches, athletes and hosts for all making it happen.
