With a heavy heart we share the news of Bryan Anderson’s passing.

Bryan was a dedicated coach and advocate for high school sport. Beyond his career as a high school teacher and coach, Bryan was a city councillor for 19 years and and was responsible for helping ensure the development of many new sport facilities across Edmonton. His contributions are countless and the impact he’s had on the lives of student athletes is immeasurable.

As a requirement for ASAA Member School Registration in the SRS, registrants are asked to attest that at least one staff member at this school has completed the “Coaching School Sport: Redefining Winning” course from http://thelocker.coach.ca as required under ASAA policy OR that this school is exempt from this requirement by virtue of being a distance education/outreach school.

The Safe Return to High School Athletics guide was developed by the ASAA as a useful summary of COVID-19 related guidelines on school sport and ASAA’s recommendations for a safe return to athletics in the school setting.

Please see the attached memo regarding the postponement of the ASAA fall provincial championships.
