Enjoy the Summer
 

WALK-ON COACH CERTIFICATION UPDATE
The State Legislature has passed an amendment to AB1025 exempting school districts that currently use both FBI and DOJ information when conducting background checks on coaches from requiring walk-on coaches to obtain ASC certification from the CTC.  As the SFUSD uses both sources, walk-on coaches employed by the SFUSD do NOT need to obtain the additional certification.  Check this link for complete details.
 

COACHING JOBS: SEE THE COACHING PAGE
AAA Schools are gearing up for the 2010-11 season.  Some of them need coaches.  See the Coaches Info page to see all the posted jobs in our league and in others.  Good luck.

FOOTBALL NON-LEAGUE GAME INFO
AAA Schools begin 2010 non-league football contests in late August.  Check this link for a current schedule of game opponents, locations, and times.
 

MISSION BADMINTON EARNS CIF HONOR
The State CIF recently announced the annual Academic Team Awards for 2009-10 with the AAA/SF Section's Mission HS earning the top spot for Badminton with a 3.88 team GPA.  Congratulations to each member of the Bear's squad and to their coach, Jon Oberto, and athletic director, Scott Kennedy, for helping motivate these top notch student athletes to do their best on the court and in the classroom!  Check this link for a complete list of academic champs for all sports.
 

UCSF PLAYSAFE SPORTS MEDICINE PROGRAM
UCSF continues its partnership with the SFUSD Athletic Department by providing doctors, athletic trainers, and functioning training rooms at each of the SFUSD high schools that participate in the AAA.  Check out this link for more information on this valuable program.

NCGA PARTNERS WITH CIF SCHOOLS
The Northern California Golf Association, in conjunction with the California Interscholastic Federation, has an established program that provides FREE membership in the NCGA to all high school golf team athletes and their head coach.  Check this link for more information on the program and instructions on how to become a member.

ALUMNI HISTORY PAGE
We provide an Alumni History Page on our web site dedicated to preserving specific historical athletic information from our past and present AAA/SF Section schools.  Check it out!  If you have any information about major school events or athletes who have made it to the Professional or Olympic level, please forward it to us via e-mail.  In addition, since our office is located at the old McAteer HS (currently SOTA HS), we are also in the process of gathering more in-depth information for you McAteer alums--yearbooks, athletic photos, past coaches list, etc.  If any ex-Jaguar athletes are able to help in our "fact finding mission," please feel free to call us at 415-920-5185 or forward the info via e-mail to us for posting.

ANNUAL CHAMPIONS POSTED
The updated AAA Annual Champions by Sport are posted on our Sport Info page.  Being that the AAA dates back to 1924, there are a number of years in various sports for which we have been unable to determine the champion.  We are, therefore, requesting your assistance in helping us "fill in the blanks."  If you have any information that might shed some light on those "dark years", please call us at 415-920-5185 or send an e-mail to John Zlatunich.  Together we can create and build a concise history of the AAA!
