Gary Shiffrin had a 42-year career tied to the Brevard County public school system before his retirement in 2013. He relished the opportunity to impact kids as an educator.
Shiffrin's record included service as dean of students, coach, assistant principal, principal and athletic director. Additionally, he was heavily involved with the Cape Coast Conference, which included all Brevard and Indian River County schools. He started as the secretary and treasurer and eventually assumed the role of Commisssioner in 1991. Shiffrin held that position for 21 years.
The Mid Coast Officials Association 2023 General Membership Meeting was held on Monday, June 26 at 6:30pm.
Meeting details forthcoming. Contact your Sport Comissioner for further details.
This is unfortunately not a unique story. It is happening all across the country. MCOA is always looking for sports officials across our 9 sports (football, basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, wrestling, soccer, girls lacrosse, boys lacrosse). See our web site for more information about why you should become a sports official and instructions on how to become a sports official.

The MCOA would like to acknowledge our team members that have gone home after the final whistle. This page is dedicated to them, their families, friends and loved ones so they might know we have remembered them and their life that was a part of our team.
