The minutes were approved through email by David Boal, but were not read aloud during the meeting due to an extended presentation by Coach Skrosky.

1. Open issues
2. 8 quarter rule – Do we want to keep it or get rid of it. All coaches present agreed on keeping the 8 quarter rule in effect as it is written. The only thing coaches would like to emphasize is that ALL coaches use common wording and be consistent on what we need and use it for. Everyone should have the same, if not similar, answer to the question; “Why do we need or use the 8 quarter rule?” and “What’s considered an emergency?”
3. Andy presented a rising issue with new charter and parochial schools popping up in NC and recruiting public school student-athletes. We discussed how we should organize and present a unified statement to the NCHSAA.
4. Heads Up Football – David Boal introduced the possibility for ENCFCA members to become heads up certified this coming May. To get a master teacher to present the program we would need a minimum of 40 coaches to sign up at a possible cost of $15 per coach. The target date for this event will be on a Friday at the beginning of May.
