It is a volunteer, parent-organized and funded program.  \nBISA is a member of the South Dakota Amateur Hockey Association (SDAHA) . Other member cities in the Association include Aberdeen, Brandon Valley, Huron, Mitchell, Rapid City, Sioux Falls, Oahe, Watertown, Yankton, and Sioux Center, Iowa.  \nSDAHA is registered member of USA Hockey, the national governing body for amateur hockey in the United States. It sets the rules under which our youth hockey program operates. SDAHA registers six league levels with USA Hockey as Traveling teams: Varsity/Junior Varsity, Bantam, Pee Wee, Squirts, Varsity/Junior Varsity Girls, and U14 Girls. All other teams are considered House teams. SDAHA administers a league playing schedule for the six traveling groups. All traveling teams have a sanctioned state tournament except Squirts. League play and sanctioned state tournaments follow the rules and regulations set forth by USA Hockey.  \nHISTORY  \nThe Brookings Ice Skating Association ( BISA) was organized on January 7, 1982 by a group of parents interested in promoting hockey and figure skating in Brookings. These programs were made possible by an agreement signed in 1981 between the city of Brookings and Larson Manufacturing to build an indoor ice facility. In the first years of the program, natural ice was used. In 1983, efforts began to install artificial ice at Larson Ice Arena. A committee was formed to proceed with the project in January 1985, and the system began operating in December 1985. Contributions from Dale Larson, the city of Brookings and many individual donors made the $136,500 project possible.  \nAs the number of hockey participants has grown, so has the number of age groups and teams in each age group. In 1985 Mites and Squirts were divided into separate groups. In 1988, first grade and younger players were placed in a new division called Termites. In the 1998-1999 season, girls were added to the program. In recent years, rapid growth in BISA’s hockey membership has occurred. At the present time, two to four teams are formed within each age group.  \nIn March of 2002, the new Lars","cbCairghSdoKlgTj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairghSdoKlgTj","pdf",2671794,61,"English","# Introduction\n## History\n## Philosophy\n## Organization Structure of Brookings Ice Skating Association\n## Parent Responsibilities, Positions, Points, SafeSport, and Background Screening\n## BISA Positions and Participation Points\n## Minimum SafeSport and Background Check Guidelines\n## BISA Scholarships\n## SDAHA Delegate Committee\n## Registration Fees\n## Insurance Coverage\n## Fundraising\n## Uniforms and Equipment\n## Refunds\n## Team Policies\n## Tryout Procedure\n## Policy on Challenging to Higher Level Teams\n## Offseason\n## Guidelines for Team Communication\n## Tournaments and Out of Town Travel\n## Varsity “B” Award\n## USA Hockey Award Patches\n## BISA Defense Patch\n## General Policies\n## BISA Disciplinary Process\n# Appendices\n## Appendix A: BISA Points Participation Agreement\n## Appendix B: BISA Concussion Policy and Concussion Information\n## Appendix C: BISA Hockey Code of Conduct\n## Appendix D: Locker Room Policy\n## Appendix E: Travel Policy\n## Appendix F: Incident Report\n## Appendix G: Request for Formal Hearing by the BISA Discipline Committee\n## Appendix H: USA Hockey Concussion Management, Return to Play\n## Appendix I: BISA ADM Vision & Recommendations\n## Appendix J: BISA Age Level and Coordinator Position Descriptions\n## Appendix K: BISA Ellsbury Scholarship Application\n## Revision Log","[{\"question\":\"What is the mission and philosophy of the BISA hockey program?\",\"answer\":\"BISA’s philosophy is to provide each player an equal opportunity to participate and enjoy hockey.
