801-­‐9707 105th Street Edmonton, Alberta T5K 2Y4 March 14, 2013 Re: ICSD Nomination – 2013 Congress Dear CDSA Board of Directors: The International Committee for Sports of the Deaf (ICSD) has sent out the nomination form for the election of new positions for the 2013 -­‐ 2017 term. I am expressing my interest in being nominated for the position of Member-­‐at-­‐Large with the ICSD Board of Directors. The reason for my interest is to have the opportunity to be involved in a new governance of the ICSD, pending the members’ approval and support the growth of the organisation. Among my teammates, I had been a victim of the unfortunate cancellation of the 2011 Deaflympics – an experience that I do not wish to see repeated and imposed on any athlete. After recovering from the devastating experience, I am more than determined to be involved with the ICSD, which needs to foster a new change and increase the profile of Deaf Sports in the world. Please see my attached documents that reflect my experience and abilities: • Arista Haas Resume ICSD Nomination.pdf • APPENDIX_A_LTPA_Booklet_V5_ICSDNomination.pdf My best abilities are analysis, decision-­‐making, producing reports, and project management. I strongly believe with my skill sets, I can support the transition of the ICSD governance as I have done with the Alberta Deaf Sports Association, Canadian Deaf Sports Association, and World Deaf Golf Federation. Thank you for your time to consider my application for the position of Member-­‐at-­‐Large with the ICSD Board. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at [email protected]. Sincerely, Arista Haas Arista H. Haas Resident of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Sporting Achievements: I have been involved in competitive sports since 1982 when I joined a youth soccer
league in O’Fallon, Illinois, USA. Between 1982 and 1985, I was a student at a
Deaf School in St. Louis, Missouri and was living with my American family for three
years. My parents were always in support of me in receiving my education and
being involved in sports.
Canada became my permanent residence after 8 years of commuting between
Edmonton and St. Louis for education. Between 1985 and 1993, I was involved in
school competitions in both individual and team sports. Golf, swimming, five-pin
bowling, basketball, soccer, and volleyball were the sports I was involved because of
my passion.

Arista H Haas – ICSD Nomination – 2013 Congress – Sofia, Bulgaria 2
Relevant Experience: My current job position is Financial Officer at the federal government of Canada, in
the department of Transport (www.tc.gc.ca). The department is generally known as
“Transport Canada” for English or “Transports Canada” for French. I have begun
my tenure with the Transport Canada in 1999 and have worked as a Transportation
Analyst with a policy unit before transferring to the Finance and Administration
branch that I became an Audit Officer then promoted to Financial Officer.
The current area of my responsibilities as a Financial Officer is supervising a small
unit of three employees, which was reduced from six employees due to the
budgetary reduction, which led to a workforce adjustment management. I
undertook the supervisory role in May 2012 at the beginning of the change and we
are still moving forward as a small and efficient unit.
Voluntary experience became constant in my life after I graduated from the
University of Alberta in Edmonton. I became involved in the administration of two
sport clubs on a provincial level between 2000 and 2003 and then I became involved
with the Alberta Deaf Sports Association (www.albertadeafsports.ca) and Canadian
Deaf Sports Association (www.assc-cdsa.com) as well as Canadian Deaf Golf
Association since 2003. On the international level, I am the current Board Member
of the World Deaf Golf Federation (www.worlddeafgolf.com).
The work experience does not only focus in government work experience; I was also
involved in various organisations as a volunteer. The volunteer work did allow me to
acquire or enhance my skills that provided me some unique perspectives that I could
relate to my responsibilities in government. My personal and professional
development has benefited from the cross experiences of my activities in both public
and non-profit sectors. What skills I have developed or acquired in Transport
Canada have been valuable in my volunteer work and those learned or honed in the
non-profit sector have supported my role as a Financial Officer in Transport Canada.
Detailed Experience:
World Deaf Golf Federation (WDGF)
Board Member – 2006 to present
Portfolio 2010 to present: Communications (Website, newsletters Social Media)
Portfolio 2006 to 2010: Audiograms and Passports for ICSD Eligibiity
•
I took the initiative to build the original website from scratch in 2006 and
provided support to one of the Board members from 2006 to 2010 in addition
my Audiograms and Passports portfolio. In 2010, the WDGF website was
overhauled to meet today’s needs including the social media and the
demands of being notified of any updates. I volunteered to maintain the
Arista H Haas – ICSD Nomination – 2013 Congress – Sofia, Bulgaria 3
website because using professional services is unaffordable for the WDGF.
www.worlddeafgolf.com
•
After creating the first Media Accreditation Package, I negotiated with
photographers and media for a free access to the 2012 World Deaf Golf
Championships in an exchange of visual media material to build the inventory
of the WDGF archives. The approach is cost effective for the non-profit
organization like WDGF as the purchase of stock photos and media clips
would be very costly.
•
In the process of creating a new Communications policy to ensure
transparency and accountability of the WDGF with the WDGF email use,
media outlets (Golf Digest, PGA, etc.) and social media (Facebook, Twitter,
etc.).
•
Email correspondence is the only means of communication for our Board to
cost restrictions and I have provided my knowledge and expertise in the areas
of media and finances for policy interpretation and decision making purposes.
•
Initiated the process to develop Internal policies for the management of the
WDGF operations. The process is on-going due to the progression of the
organization.
•
Audiograms and Passports portfolio was brand new for the WDGF in 2006
and I had to ensure the policies between the World Deaf Golf Federation and
the International Committee of Sports for the Deaf (ICSD –
www.deaflympics.com) are parallel especially for the Audiograms and the
Passports.
•
I provided advice and interpretation on the policies for Audiograms and
Passports as well as enforcing the policies with several National Deaf Golf
Federations. As of 2012, the member nations are fully aware of this policy
and are cooperating with their National Deaf Sports Federations, which in turn
works with the ICSD.
•
I participated in the committee on developing the WDGF bylaws and the
WDGC Rules of Competitions. I used the Canadian Deaf Sports Association
bylaws and the Canadian Deaf Golf Association hosting policy to help initiate
the development process.
Arista H Haas – ICSD Nomination – 2013 Congress – Sofia, Bulgaria 4
Canadian Deaf Sports Association (CDSA)
Project Leader - Long Term Participant and Athlete Development (LTPAD)
Committee Chair – 2011 to 2013
•
Currently, I am responsible for overseeing the development of the CDSA
LTPAD model in compliance with the Sport Canada’s expectations. Over 55
National Sport Organisations have their own LTAD model and booklets
(Source: http://canadiansportforlife.ca/resources/ltad-sport-models).
Example model that we are looking at: Paralympic Canada LTAD
Please see Appendix A for a draft version of the project.
•
Assurances needed to be made that we meet the minimum financial
expectations and follow the budget exactly as provided. Sport Canada
provides the financial support for the committee meetings and hire a writer,
graphic designer, and translators to finalize the new LPTAD model. As of
March 2013, the committee is in the final stage of the project and we are
meeting the deadline expectations.
•
The other areas of responsibilities included writing an application and
provided feedback to receive more funding for the project. The final action is
to develop ASL (American Sign Language) and LSQ (Langue de Quebec des
signes) versions of the LTPAD model.
Board Member – 2005 to 2007
•
I was on the CDSA Board of Directors for two years to ensure the CDSA
follows the new governance and the hiring of a first Executive Director.
•
The results have impacted the CDSA’s status with Sport Canada in 2013.
The CDSA has received more funding than previous years and the policies
and procedures are much more established and provided guidelines to
improved management of the organization.
•
I was on the bylaws committee to develop the bylaws from scratch to reflect
the modern governance while respecting the members’ wishes. An example
would be keeping the national deaf sports organizations as members prior to
2006. The CDSA bylaws became in effect in October 2006. Policies and
procedures followed in the subsequent years.
•
Prior to bylaws approval, the CDSA underwent a major overhaul during my
tenure on the Board. The transition was difficult but the end result is that the
CDSA has a modern administration with an up-to-date website and social
media
Arista H Haas – ICSD Nomination – 2013 Congress – Sofia, Bulgaria 5
Alberta Deaf Sports Association (ADSA)
President – 2007 to 2011, 2003 to 2005
Secretary – 2005 to 2006, stepped down due to my position with the CDSA
•
As the President starting in 2003, I had to ensure we had accountability and
transparency with our members due to unfortunate circumstances in the
previous years.
•
Financial management was my priority, as we had to ensure that athletes had
their fair chance to participate in the National and International events.
•
In 2005, we initiated an overhaul in the ADSA’s organizational structure and
philosophy. Consultants were hired to help with creating the ADSA’s new
Vision, Mission, and Values statements. (see www.albertadeafsports.ca
website for statements).
•
In 2008, I hired an administrative office staff to provide support with the office
tasks and the program expansion. This is the first permanent position in the
organizational history.
•
Financial support was analyzed in order to ensure the sustainability of the
program and the financial portfolio was carefully managed in the first 2 years
of my leadership.
•
The number of athletes grew to over 70 athletes participating on the national
level between 2003 and 2010. The Program expanded to include nine sports,
an increase from three sports.
•
The growth was possible with a budget of $90,000 per year on the average
and the revenue depended on five different sources: fundraising by athletes,
volunteer work at the casinos, annual grants from the Provincial government,
membership fees, and donations.
Arista H Haas – ICSD Nomination – 2013 Congress – Sofia, Bulgaria 6
Canadian Deaf Golf Association (CDGA)
President – 2003 to 2006
Stepped down due to my position with the CDSA
•
The CDGA website was overhauled and the hosting policy was created to
ensure the accountability and transparency of the organization.
www.deafgolf.ca The current website and the CDGA hosting policy are active
under the current Board of Directors.
•
Handicap cards – a measurement of a golfer’s ability to have low scores at a
golf course – was introduced to the golfers and was added as an eligibility
requirement to participate in the World Deaf Golf Championships.
•
I provided support to the Treasurer to ensure the organization has a clear
budget and introduced the concept of the audited financial report for the
members’ approval. The practice of audited financial reports is still in practice
under the current CDGA Board.

A summary of why I am re-standing for ICSD President:
As we are embarking on the nominations for the 2013-2017 ICSD Executive Board
membership at the forthcoming elections at ICSD Congress in Sofia, Bulgaria in July
this year, I wish to be put on record my accomplishments as 8th President of the
prestigious International Committee of Sport for the Deaf.
International Committee of Sports for the Deaf
PO Box #3441; Frederick, Maryland 21705 USA
Ever since I became elected President in 2009 together with the Board I have
managed, supervised & overseen significant actions, restructure & changes within
ICSD notably:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
ICSDs first ever Strategic Plan 2010-2013 which I wrote the full
components of the strategic objectives and I was commended by
International Olympic Committee
Proposed initial strategic overtones for 2013-2017 which was recently
approved in principle by ICSD Board
Managed to gain approval of ICSD members move Deaf Sport Reform to
ICSD Governance Review following Acceptance of DSAs proposal from

Oversaw

reduction over the last two years via tight and robust budget
Relocation of US office base in Frederick, Maryland to virtual office setting
in Brighton, UK
Scrutinised Hungary’s proposal before acceptance of Bulgarian
Government’s offer to host Sofia Summer Deaflympics 2013 in place of
cancelled Athens within short space of time;
Re-ignited successful relations with the international sport movement
notably International Olympic Committee, Sport Accord & International
Sport Federations
Developed positive intentions with World Federation of the Deaf which led
to re-writing of Memorandum of Understanding Agreement
Observed successful input of 2 new Regional Confederation Presidents
from PANAMDES & APDSC
Advocated successful decision by IOC to recognise Deaflympic name & its
formal status on paper

Currently overseeing preparations for the upcoming Sofia 2013
Deaflympics & ICSD Congress
International Committee of Sports for the Deaf
PO Box #3441; Frederick, Maryland 21705 USA
I take immense pride that since 2011 I oversaw the success of our own World Deaf
Sport Championships 27 of them without a single cancellation which ultimately made
it possible for athletes to achieve their own aspirations and gain attention from the
International Sport Federations.
My greatest achievement has been able to see the phenomenal rise in our Deaf
athletes’ profile and visibility not only through World Championships but also the
attention of the International Olympic Committee who have been greatly
encouraged by our progress to date and this has also enhanced our own credibility
further especially with their recent formal written recognition of the Deaflympics
name and continuing financial grant support which has increased 100% for 2013.
It is my considered intention that I would like to see ICSD Board (5 plus 4 regional
confederations) and Commissions serve in its full capacity and that continuity is also
an important stepping stone for ICSDs strategic & governing aspirations.
Needless to say ICSD is still very much in process of re-building its governance in
order to become a robust but prominent international sport federation, and along
with our strategic vision, I believe the next four years will be the deciding factor for
the governing federation in terms of equality, diversity, visibility, recognition and
effective promotion for athletes, members and the Deaflympic Movement itself.
With the right strategy, and continuing careful diplomatic relations I believe ICSD &
Deaflympics will play pivotal part in the future negotiations for comprehensive
harmony and partnership consolidation with fellow members of the international
sporting movement by 2020.
My heartfelt thanks go to the ICSD Board, Regional Confederations, Commissions
and Member Countries for the unswerving support and commitment you have
provided me over the last four years and I sincerely hope to be able to count upon
fullest support of ICSD members once again as I formally bid my Presidential
candidacy for the second term in 2013-2017.

Re: Position of ICSD Vice-President (Youth Sports) – Candidate David Lanesman
The Executive Committee of Israel Deaf Sports Organisation has decided to propose candidacy
of David Lanesman for the Position of ICSD Vice-President (Youth Sports) (only if he fails to
get elected as a Vice-President (World Championships) at the 43rd Congress ) at the 43rd ICSD
Congress.
David Lanesman is a suitable person to this vacancy. He has vast experience in deaf sports
management at the executive level. He has attended at almost every ICSD Congress as well as
EDSO Congress since 1987.
We are sure that he will donate his useful knowledge of deaf sports to the ICSD.
