from the 

president 

Welcome to the 45th Annual Indiana Interscholastic Athletic 

Administration Association’s State Conference at Indianapolis’s Marriott 

East. This year’s conference will bring together over 400 Athletic Secretaries, 

Middle/Jr. and High School Athletic Administrators from around the state 

and provide an opportunity to network and gain professional development. 

I especially want to welcome those of you who are attending your 

first State Conference, and to encourage you to attend the First Time 

Attendees Orientation meeting on Sunday, March 17, at 1:15pm, where 

you’ll receive beneficial information concerning the conference. 

The planning for this year’s conference started immediately at the conclusion of last year’s conference; it takes 

many individuals to make it successful. With input from last year’s evaluations, along with suggestions from 

the various districts, this year’s conference offers a plethora of topics and ideas to assist the new and veteran 

Athletic Administrator. Borrowing a phrase from the wedding world, this year’s conference will have “something 

old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue.” I’ll let you figure out which is which. 

Eleven LTC courses will open the conference on Saturday and Sunday along with several workshops. The 

IHSAA Assistant Commissioners will be available Sunday afternoon for their yearly workshop on current 

issues and events. At Sunday night’s Awards Banquet, we will showcase our IIAAA and NIAAA scholarship 

winners along with honoring the district’s Middle/Jr. and High School Athletic Administrators of the year and 

Charles Maas award winners. 

Monday morning’s speaker will be Indianapolis Colts Community Spokesperson, Josh Bleill. Josh will kick off 

the day with his inspirational and motivational speech “Best Foot Forward.”Also, this year we will have a guest 

speaker at our business luncheon. Former Major League Pitcher Tommy John will be on hand to share a few 

of his experiences in the “bigs.” Monday afternoon’s workshops should provide a variety of opportunities to 

gain some professional knowledge and, for the third straight year, Monday Night’s Social, which will include 

the fan favorite dueling pianos and will provide an evening to catch up with peers and vendors. 

On Monday and Tuesday, over 130 vendors will be on hand in the atrium and exhibits hall to provide product 

and service information that may make your job a little easier. This one stop shopping not only allows 

you to save time by having all the vendors in one place but their presence also assists in keeping the 

State Conference registration fees nominal. 

Tuesday morning will start off with Sports Psychologist, Dr. Chris Carr, as he shares with us his thoughts on 

“Developing Mental Toughness in High School Athletes.” IHSAA Commissioner Bobby Cox will wrap of the 

general sessions with the popular Q/A followed by the luncheon Banquet and the much loved state conference 

door prizes. 

Finally, I would like to thank my wife of twenty-five years Judi, and our three children Chelsea, Keaton 

and Kendyll not only for their support and encouragement this past year but also for the sacrifices they’ve 

made the past twenty years I’ve served in athletic administration. I hope you’ll be able to pick up a couple of 

ideas that you can implement this spring or next fall, but if not, at least you’ll have an opportunity to refresh, 

recharge and reconnect. Thank you for attending, have a great conference and God Bless!

Orientation 

For first-time attendees & New AD’s 

Welcome to the 45th Annual IIAAA State Conference! We are pleased that you have taken this 

opportunity for professional growth. One of the great things about the IIAAA is the camaraderie 

among its members. Please feel free to ask plenty of questions and don’t be bashful about asking for 

assistance. We are here to serve you! 

Be sure to attend the First-time Attendees/New A.D.’s Conference 

Orientation on Sunday, March 17th at 1:15 pm – in Salon 6. 

Here are some helpful hints to fully enjoy this Conference: 

CONFERENCE PROGRAM – Take some time after registration to read the Conference Program. It contains information 

about all Conference activities and their sites. 

HOTEL MAP – Familiarize yourself with the map of the Marriott East found in the Conference Program. It’s always a good 

idea to walk around the hotel and find out where workshops and meetings that you want to attend will be. 

VENDORS – Refer to the Exhibitor’s Map to quickly find a particular vendor in the Exhibit Hall. Every vendor and their 

specialty is listed in the program. 

EXHIBIT HALL – The Exhibit Hall will be open from 8:00 am until 4:30 pm on Monday, March 18th and from 7:30 am until 

11:00 am on Tuesday, March 19th. Please visit the Exhibit Hall frequently and support our vendors. 

DOOR PRIZES – Plan to participate in the Door Prize drawings that take place throughout the Conference. Most of 

these are held in the Exhibit Hall, but there are also drawings held at the Sunday night Conference Banquet, the Working 

Luncheon on Monday, and the Tuesday Conference Luncheon. Remember, a brand new TV will be given away on Monday 

night at the Social!! Remember, to win a door prize, you must be present to win! 

50/50 DRAWING – Be sure to purchase some 50/50 Raffle tickets sold throughout the Conference by some of the retired 

members of our organization. The 50/50 drawings will be held at the Conference Luncheon on Tuesday, March 19th. 

HOSPITALITY ROOM – The Hospitality Room will be located in room #160 and will be open throughout the Conference. 

This is a great place to meet colleagues and make new friends. There is no charge, so visit often! 

SOCIAL TIME – Come and join your colleagues from 5:15 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. on Monday, March 18th at a social gathering 

in the Freedom Ballroom. There will be door prizes, beverages, hors d’oeuvres, and entertainment from two dueling 

pianists. This should be a great evening of fellowship and fun! 

WORKSHOPS/GENERAL SESSIONS – You’ll have great opportunities to hear some terrific ideas and concepts in athletic 

administration as well as interact with tremendous speakers. 

CRACKER BARRELS – Attend the Class Cracker Barrel sessions to discuss topics with your colleagues that are important 

to our organization. 

CONFERENCE BANQUET and LUNCHEONS – Attend these cornerstones of our annual Conference. You’ll have the 

opportunity to attend a wonderful award program honoring top athletic administrators and participate in the Annual

Corporal 

Joshua Bleill 

Corporal Joshua Bleill graduated from Greenfield Central High School, in 

Greenfield, Indiana, and attended Purdue University. He joined the Marine 

Corps Reserves in 2004 and was activated for a tour of duty in Iraq with the 

First Battalion, 24th Marine Regiment. 

Bleill was conducting combat patrols in Fallujah, Iraq, on October 15, 2006, when he was seriously wounded by an 

improvised explosive device (IED) that struck his vehicle. He suffered multiple injuries, including the loss of both his legs 

above the knees. 

In the many months of recovery following his injuries in Iraq, Bleill mentored other wounded warriors and participated in 

a study of individuals using the newest technology for prosthetic legs. He has had unbelievable opportunities, including 

receiving his Purple Heart from President George W. Bush and attending Super Bowl XLI in 2007 to see his favorite team, 

the Indianapolis Colts, claim the Lombardi Trophy. 

Bleill moved home to Indiana in August 2008 and was married to his wife, Nikki, in April 2009. He recently built a home in 

Carmel and has joined the Indianapolis Colts as a community spokesperson.

This quote encourages me to perform my very best”. She further states “I realize that while athletics has played a huge 

role up to this point, I have to use these experiences to help me excel in the next phase. I am not going to be a professional 

athlete but I believe these lessons will help me to become a successful professional”.

athletes made me want to be like them. Sports have taught me many valuable lessons 

that I will carry with me throughout life. Tough losses have taught me how to bounce 

back and big wins have taught me not to get too high. I have learned not to get too 

comfortable or satisfied with what I have. There is always room for improvement. What 

has made sports fun is the friendships I have developed with teammates and athletes 

from opposing teams and the working with a team toward a common goal”.
