A Word from Doug Gellatly,
OFSAA Executive Director
Beginning this spring and continuing into the next school
year, OFSAA will release a series of four short videos
titled The School Sport Effect that capture the incredible
benefits of sport at the high school level. These videos
were produced under the direction of our advocacy
committee and the leadership of its Chair, Barry Mutrie.
We are very excited about this project because it
addresses a number of key areas. When we conducted a
survey as part of our strategic planning process, a wide
variety of groups were invited to respond including coaches, athletic directors,
school administrators, school board administrators and students. A number
of common issues and themes emerged from the survey responses such
as problems with coach recruitment, declining student interest and lack of
support from administration.
The videos, which are all about 60 seconds in length, address all of these
areas and provide an emotional connection to the viewer. OFSAA will make
them widely available to schools and associations to use at trustee meetings,
staff meetings, grade eight nights, grade nine orientation and student council
meetings, among other opportunities. They will also be distributed through
social media channels and other digital promotion means as well as on the
OFSAA website.
Here is a brief description of each of the four videos.
“Dear Coach”
Targets coach recruitment by recognizing the sacrifices coaches make and the
appreciation felt by students for the efforts of coaches. It also encourages student
participation by communicating that school sport helps them prepare for life.
“Dear Mom and Dad”
Aimed primarily at parents and conveys the message that school sport can provide
a meaningful experience if their child participates. This will also resonate with the
public and other audiences. The message is backed up by factual statistics.
“Dear Student”
Main audience is students and acknowledges the barriers to participation
while encouraging engagement in school sport. It also draws attention to
the benefits that coaching can provide to teachers who volunteer their time.
“Success Stories”
The target audience is school and board administrations and trustees. The
video reinforces the value of school sport through statistics and success stories
by featuring a wide-range of professionals from across all walks of life who
played school sports. The content is supported by research.
These have all been professionally produced by Clark Communications and
are valuable tools your school will find very useful. Please don’t hesitate to
contact our office should you require background and the key speaking points
that can assist in your presentations of the videos.

In Memoriam
Larry Bobbie
1945 - 2018
OFSAA was saddened
to learn of the passing
of Larry Bobbie on
January 9, 2018. For
nearly 40 years, Larry
coached high school
badminton at Korah
Collegiate & Vocational
School and Sir James
Dunn Collegiate and
Vocational School in
Sault Ste. Marie.
Known by some as ‘Mr. Badminton’,
the longtime teacher, coach, guidance
counsellor and mentor was a recipient of
OFSAA’s Leadership In School Sport Award
in 1993. The positive role model convened
OFSAA and NOSSA badminton events and
was a chair of the Sport Advisory Committee
(SAC) for OFSAA Badminton.
OFSAA extends our heartfelt condolences
to Larry’s wife, Darlene, and the entire
Bobbie family at this difficult time.

CIOS is a program developed by the Coaching Association of Canada
and the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Association to give
teacher-coaches and community volunteers the special skill-set they
need to coach effectively in the school environment.
OFSAA is looking to host “National CIOS Day” and offer a workshop
in each association on September 11th, 2018, from 3:30pm-7pm.
This workshop is great for any OFSAA coaches or for those schools
that have an increased number of community coaches and need to
be aware of OFSAA policies. CIOS also provides participants with
three PD points to maintain NCCP certification.
Let’s look to educate more volunteers, teachers and coaches and we
can do that through the CIOS! If you are interested in hosting on this
National CIOS Day or offering a workshop at your school (this course
is offered in both English & French), please contact Denise Perrier at
