IHSA Says Fall Sports CAN RETURN TO PLAY (Details)
Local high school sports have received the O.K. to resume, from the IHSA!
From WIFR there are specific guidelines during this "Phase 4" but the IHSA says high school sports have been cleared to resume.
Here are some rules:
- Teams may gather in groups of 50 or less
- Teams may participate in 20 days of contact between now and 8/9
- Teams must have local school district approval
The full list of guidelines can be found HERE
Whew, love this! Let's follow guidelines, do things correctly, get past the election (cough, cough) and enjoy life. I want some high school football popcorn, please.
