2009 MHSIBCA Membership Application

Congratulations on your decision to be involved in the newest high school varsity sport in the state of Michigan. The Michigan High School Interscholastic Bowling Coaches Association, (MHSIBCA), is organized to promote high school interscholastic bowling as an integral part of the total high school education program, as well as provide a forum for discussion of techniques and rules for the education and development of both the coach and student. MHSIBCA will promote the highest possible ethical standards in coaching while offering continuing development, organization, and recognition of interscholastic bowling coach members and their players.

The association shall have three classes of membership: Regular, Affiliate and Honorary.

Regular membership includes the right of speech and the right to vote at all meetings. Those people eligible for regular membership would be: active high school bowling coaches, officers of sanctioned conferences and tournaments, and all past presidents of this association.

Affiliate membership may be held by any person demonstrating a viable interest in high school bowling. Affiliate membership has no right of vote and may not hold office.

Honorary membership includes the right of speech at all meetings and the right to vote for honorary awards and for service awards only. Honorary membership in this association may be granted by the Board of Directors.

All classes of membership will be provided access to “member only” content of the MHSIBCA website, newsletters, and first priority to all coaches’ clinics.

Application for membership by an individual or organization constitutes acceptance and approval of the constitution and By-Laws of this association and should be submitted to the Treasurer along with one year’s dues. All members must sign a Zero Tolerance Form and include it with the Membership Form.

Thank you for your ongoing efforts to make the High School Bowling program a success.
