I'm finishing up college this coming December...I will not be finishing with a teaching degree however, but want to coach badly....I understand if you coach without teaching certification it's called Rule 10 coaching, my question is what coaching exams do you have to take in order to qualify as a coach, when are they offered and what's the finacial damage of taking them...also, if anybody has any openings during the middle of the season, I'd love to work out with your heavier guys...thanks for your time! Please e-mail me at ucosweazy@yahoo.com

Aaron:

Glad to hear you're going into coaching! Actually, Rule 10 is pretty simple. The first year you are an "supervised aide" which basically means you are an assistant. Following your first year, you take a week's worth of classes that offered all over the place, and successful completion of that will make you "unsupervised" and eligble to be a head coach. However, anytime you switch school districts you must again go through a year unsupervised.

But, according to information I received recently from a VERY reliable source inside KSHSAA, there has been a recent change in the definition of unsupervised. While the state previously set the standards of supervision, that provision has been removed from the rule. Now, the schools themselves can determine what level of supervision is. In other words, an experienced Rule 10 head coach could shift districts without having to sit a year as an assistant, provided the new district approved and felt comfortable with the situation.

Good luck with your search!

You can find the classes at http://www.kshsaa.org/coachcrnr.html

When you complete the Coaching Principles, Sports First Aid classes and complete the first year as a "supervised aide" you are then eligible to become a Head Coach.

as a rule 10 coach can you join mid season, especially given the circumstances of graduating in December from college? I plan on 1st semester doing something with a school near UCO, but I want to come back to Kansas to be apart of wrestling here!

Takedown42, maybe you should find an editor. I think that should be a "supervised aide" not an. Just kidding! Congrats to the editor on her promotion, now tell her to give wrestling lots of space on the FRONT PAGE of the paper.

I'll pass that along Fanatic. Hopefully next season she'll have a lot more reason to.

Yeah Aaron you can come back and coach with Jeff at Chapman! But you'll never be allowed to coach at Abilene. Speaking of which im not sure if its my place to say this but im going to anyway cuase he means the world to me. My high school coach Bill Christner has stepped down as the head coach at Abilene after I believe 17 years. And what an impressive career he has had. Three state team titles, Top 6 finshes in all but 1 season over the last 8 years. 6 consucutive League championships. 5 regional championships. A league undefeated dual streak that extended to almost 60 straight before ending this year (thats 5 straight seasons for those that are counting). 9 individual state champions that I can think of were won under his coaching. The list goes on and on. He is a great coach and I attribute much of my success as a wrestler, coach, and a person to the things he taught me. I truly hope that he stays involved in the sport in one way or another as im sure he will.

Nigle of the record I'm not going by the name Haslouer I'm not a traitor to my team so with that said I wouldn't want the Abilene job or membership on it's coaching staff...2nd of all Jeff has some say as to who should be on his coaching staff...I personally think that if Chapman doesn't finish in the Top 10 in 4a next year some things are in need of a review...Jeff knows his stuff...but I also know his shoulder isn't up to par so they need another coaching body in the room...as for Coach Christner...he will be missed from those who wrestlerfd for and against him...now I believe the onlyhead coach still around from when I graduated in the NCKL is good old Doug Moore of Concordia...Coach Moore don't retire! Clay Center 's coaches might have been there but I don't have the capability of spelling names all night long!!! lol

Even I will give you a pardon for not knowing how to spell the Clay Center names. (Charbonneau? Is that right? I only got second in the spelling bee, not first.)

The Abilene coach always seemed like a class act. Any idea who will replace him?

Sorry we can't all have short names like yours prant. You were right on the charbonneau spelling though so you get a state spelling championship for correctly spelling a Clay Center coach's name. Greg Pfizenmaier stopped coaching high school after his last son Sheldon graduated in 2001, so now Clay Center has 2 Charbonneau coaches (dennis and mark), and they have Benny Wallace who took Greg's place last year.


Maybe you're not an ugly human, but a good looking ape.....with exceptional verbal skills.
