Tips and Handbook Pages for Coaches and Administrators

In the past year, we have created "cheat sheets" with tips and explanations for coaches on how to use the website and take advantage of some of the features built in.

These docs were located in the FAQ section of your Coach Tools.

As the site has evolved, so has the need to rework a few of the documents. As we do, we are posting them on a new page. Access to that page is now in the Links on the main menu bar. So for a while between your FAQ's and the documents we will post on this new page, if you need or would like to see anything posted, feel free to reach out.

HSSS

Week #2 of the Spring Season Ends

The weather is getting better and that's great news for all spring sports working with HSSS. It's our first spring season in Section III, and we hope that we can provide a great experience for high school teams, parents, and fans of Section III Baseball.

Like any new venture this project will take some getting used to. In the next weeks, teams can get caught up if there are missing game results, teams can enter rosters and stats, and edit any changes or errors at any time. The website will be a major part of seeding and scheduling the post season. As we near the 1/2 way point this next week, encourage teams to be sure their game scores and schedules are accurate.

Team Photos will be being taken. Instructions on uploading a team photo (also to be used for sectional programs), will be sent to your league chairmen today (Sunday May 9, 2021). Posting a photo will allow the program coordinators to go to your team page and capture the photo as they need it.

HSSS stats wishes a Happy Mother's day to all the Baseball moms in Section III. Have a great week #3 and good luck to all teams in the coming days.

HSSS

Week #1 of the Spring 2021 Season is at it's End.

Coaches: Be sure to register to gain access to your team page. Put your schedules and rosters online. Entering your game results and game stats as soon as you can after a game is optimal. HSSS will become the central source for your athletes, your parents, fans, the media and recruiters watching your players' progress.

HSSS is working hard with your chairmen to get your pages just the way you want them. Entering your stats will help committees select all-star teams at the end of the season, and give coaches access to the Stats Report at the end of the season for your team. All records and stats will be archived in to the future.

Note: Canceling a game on your schedule for weather related reasons or any reason is as simple as going to your schedule on your Coach Tools and choosing "Cancel". That process takes 10 seconds, and can be very important to parents and fans following your team. When the game is rescheduled for another day and time, use the "Reschedule" click on your Schedule page. The game will be moved and noted that is was rescheduled from its original date.

Be sure to take a moment and be caught up with your reporting. This site will be a very important tool for the committee at seeding in June.

Welcome Section III Boys' Baseball

This will be the home of the Official Website for Section III Boys' HS Baseball for the 2021 Season. HSSS welcomes Chairman Tom Meiss, the boys' committee, the coaches, players, parents, and fans of Section III Boys' Baseball.

The coaches will be invited to register and submit their schedules and rosters at this time. Beginning with your first game in 2021, the site will be populating game results and player statistics leading to the sectional playoffs. It will be up to each coach to post the game score and stats after each game. If your coach has not registered, or if they have any questions, they can contact Tom Meiss or HSSS in the Contact section here on the main menu.

Section III will hold a post-season sectional tournament in the spring of 2021. HSSS was designed to use the seeding system and tie-breaking protocols to automatically populate the playoffs and communicate that to the sectional chainman in advance of the tournament. Keeping your page up-to-date will ensure accuracy for the committee on seeding day.

HSSS will be working with Section III to keep the records and playoff points accurate by applying the mathematics and the logic behind the seeding system in our reporting. Please enjoy the site as we are in our inaugural season.
