MJSAO to Talk Plans, Feedback

The Madison Junior School Athletic Organization, which provides sports programs for Madison student-athletes, is seeking volunteers and board members, and is scheduled to hold an open-to-the-public meeting at 8 p.m. Thursday in the Madison Junior School library.

MJSAO President Thomas Haralampoudis said residents interested in the organization are welcome to attend the meeting.

Last year, 10 sports were offered and more than 170 students participated. Students pay to participate, with an average cost of $265 per sport.

A meeting agenda shows the board is expected to review last year's programs, plan for this year, and discuss feedback from partents.

Surveys from parents showed they felt the program should place more emphasis on practice time and player development, the agenda says.

The organization is looking for volunteers to help with IT support, registration management, as well as a secretary, treasurer, policy director and someone to oversee coach hiring and supervision.
