MEMBERSHIP 

MADT MEMBERSHIP

MADT Membership is open to current or former competitive coaches in Minnesota.  Current MSHSL Registered Officials are not eligible for membership.  Upon acceptance of the By-laws and payment of required dues, applicants will be voting members of MADT and may benefit from all MADT Services and activities. 

MSHSCA MEMBERSHIP

MSHSCA Membership is automatically part of the MADT Membership, This means, the dues paid for MADT Membership also cover MSHSCA and no further dues are required. There are many benefits of this membership outlined within the MSHSCA website (https://www.mshsca.org/page/show/2433702-member-benefits) but one of the most notable benefits is the $2,000,000 liability insurance while coaching and in the classroom. While some schools provide liability during the school year, this insurance covers coaches during the summer months.
