Ohio North - South All-Star Classic Expands
The Ohio High School Football Coaches Regional Directors and Officers voted to change the format of the Ohio North-South All-Star Football Classic. At their meeting on December 7, they decided to play two North-South All-Star Classic games instead of just one and on the same day at the same site.
In an effort to help reward and promote more senior football players, two games will be played on the same day and at the same site. Players from Divisions one, two, and three will play in one game, while players from Divisions four, five, and six will play in the other game. The Directors felt that this gives more players a chance not only to play in the game, but also to experience the total package that goes along with the game.
Ohio high school coaches also will benefit from this new format. More coaches and high schools will be represented in the games. Coaches should feel better about nominating their players because of the larger player pool. More coaches will get a chance to coach in the games, which is a tremendous experience as well as honor.
The games will still be played in the spring and are tentatively set for April 27, 2013 at Welcome Stadium in Dayton. The first game will begin at 12:00. Divisions four, five, and six will play the first game. Approximately 30 minutes after the first game, Divisions one, two, and three will play. Fans will get to watch two games for the price of one.
The regions and selection process will remain the same. The North will still battle the South. The nominating and selection process will have to be revisited, but that is more than manageable.
Really a win-win for everybody. More players will get nominated. More players get exposure. More players get the experience to play in an North-South All-Star Classic. Coaches have a better chance of having a player nominated, as well as getting him selected. Coaches have a better chance of coaching in an North-South All-Star
Classic. More parents and fans have a chance to see their son or their favorite player play in an North-South All-Star Classic.
For me, it is all about "kids." Tremendous move to have more high school football players benefit from playing the game. Thank you, OHSFCA Regional Directors and officers.

MSROHIO Underclassmen Showcase CampsInstead of one centrally located MSROHIO Underclassmen Showcase Camp this summer, we decided to hold three camps in different parts of Ohio. Also, instead of conducting them on the weekends, we experimented by
having one on Tuesday and one on Thursday. The third camp was held on Sunday. Although we had some talented prospects, the numbers were not what I wanted. The instructors were good. The host schools- Toledo St Johns, Thomas Worthington, and Franklin were terrific. They were very accommodating. Still with all of the positives, the actual numbers were not want I expected. Keep reading to see my comments on some of the top campers at each camp.
