All Falcons,
Here is an update on where we currently stand with high school athletic participation. As with all things COVID, we are in a consistent state of change and adjustments.
- Practices/Trainings--Thru 12/14--no inside athletics, outside athletics must have all athletes and coaches in masks at all times. TBD after 12/14.
- WIAA--first competitive season start pushed back to Feb 1st (B/G basketball, Wrestling). For a more complete communication from the WIAA please see: https://wiaa.com/News.aspx?ID=1743&Mon=11&Yr=2020 The seasonal schedule is highly susceptible to change.
- "Summer" open coaching period extended from 12/14 thru 1/23. Coaching/Practicing options limited to COVID restrictions/guidelines. All activities continue to be optional and voluntary.
We will continue to work at the State, League, and local level to work on offering our student athletes the safest and best possible high school athletic experience. The bottom line is that our athletic options will start with our COVID metrics.
As stated above, although we have "penciled" in schedules, the timing of specific sports is still very much under consideration, and will be until we get closer to February.
Therefore one thing families can do proactively is to get their athlete's physical taken care of early (now?). There may not be a lot of time given prior to a sport's start, and the availability for clinic appointments may be limited.
I will be communicating relevant updates. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions.
Have a great, safe, holiday weekend. Go Falcons!
