52nd NATIONAL ATHLETIC DIRECTORS CONFERENCE

Colorado Convention Center | Denver, Colorado December 10-14, 2021  Reg Here: NIAAA Registration

What are the Colorado COVID-19 restrictions?

As the National Athletic Directors Conference approaches, we will continue to stay up to date on Denver and Colorado guidelines regarding COVID-19. For all information concerning public health orders in Denver, follow this link: https://www.denvergov.org/Government/COVID-19-Information/Public-Health-Orders-Response/Public-Health-Orders

Do I need to wear a mask at NADC?

With the number of people we will host at the national conference, we strongly encourage everyone to wear a mask during conference events, regardless of vaccination status.

​

At this time, there is still a federal mandate for everyone to wear a face mask while using public transport. This includes airplanes, buses, trains, taxis, Ubers, and Lyfts.

Should I expect delays?

While in Denver, restaurants may have long wait times as a result of worker shortages. In addition, it’s likely to take longer than normal to move through the Denver International Airport when leaving the national conference.

Can I get a refund because of school policy?

The NFHS/NIAAA is aware school districts might change their COVID-19 protocol for travel as the school year goes on. If a change occurs, we will be sensitive to that and offer a refund.

In order to apply for the 2022 state and national scholarship please go to www.niaaa.org, click on awards, then student scholarships for all of the necessary information. This will include the qualifications needed in order to apply and the fillable application form. Once you have completed the application and included a recommendation from your athletic administrator you can submit the total packet to Tania Rich at mssadasecretary@gmail.com.
We are proud to announce the winners of the 2021 MSSADA Scholar/Athlete Essay Awards!

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of the athletic administrators that supported this effort by taking the time to spread the word to their respective candidates and for writing such heartfelt recommendations.
