Youth Suicide — “Silent Epidemic”
Attached is a link to a video of Clark Flatt, President of The Jason Foundation (JFI) sharing a brief background of JFI and information regarding youth suicide. He shares how to learn more about the warning signs of the “Silent Epidemic” of youth suicide by visiting jasonfoundation.com. Hopefully this video will encourage coaches to learn more about youth suicide, the resources available and possibly save a life.

June Signing Period for HS Athletes
The GACA is against a June signing period
The Georgia Athletic Coaches Association would like to make a public statement in regards to the potential June signing period for high school football players. Navigating the current recruiting calendar is already a difficult task for High School Football Coaches in Georgia. The GACA is against a June signing period and feel it will cause more issues for the high school programs and is not healthy for our game. A June signing period could lead to a large increase in kids re-classifying, which will cause a number of issues. We hope the decision makers will appreciate our concerns as a coach’s association in Georgia and that many other state associations share the same concerns about the June signing period.
