This past fall, an Ad Hoc Tier Committee worked collaboratively to develop a revised tier model which would more appropriately meet the needs of our sport.
The initial draft was reviewed by the Executive and Zone Representatives, and the committee leadership attended meetings in a number of areas within the province to explain the proposal. Based on the discussion and suggestions put forward at these meetings, the model was revised on an ongoing basis.
The final draft was unanimously supported by the BC SCHOOL SPORTS Competitive Standards Committee, who commended the BCSSRU for submitting a model that significantly addresses the changing times and provides more opportunities for excellence and participation.
The proposal as presented will go forward as a formal Resolution to the BC SCHOOL SPORTS Annual General Meeting on May 8, 2010. If this Resolution is adopted, the format as presented will be implemented on a trial basis for 2010-2011.
