Action was taken during a special called virtual meeting
Murfreesboro, TN -The Legislative Council met via a virtual meeting on Wednesday, July 13th, 2022 to take action on three proposed changes to the bylaws. The first change was in regards to the Middle School (TMSAA) bylaws, with the other two changes affecting Unified Sports in the TSSAA bylaws.
The TMSAA change was in regards to officials. Article IV, Section 16 of the TMSAA bylaws now states: “For varsity contests, all officials must be registered and approved by TSSAA.”
The final item the Council approved was a change to Article II, Section 26 (Athletes Participating in Unified Sports) of the TSSAA Bylaws. The bylaw now reads as follows:
“Unified Partners must meet all TSSAA eligibility requirements. They are not eligible to participate in the TSSAA postseason at the state level on the school team for the sanctioned sport in which they are participating in the Unified competition.”
