With athletics getting ready to once again begin for the first time in more than two months across the state, the AHSAA has released a set of “Best Practices” guidelines for return. Those include everything from sanitation guidelines, a set of pre-screening questions and suggestions for maintaining social distancing during athletic activities, which can resume Monday.
However, AHSAA officials made clear during a press conference Wednesday it would be up to individual school districts to enforce these guidelines. Although there will be no consequences from the AHSAA regarding if schools are following these protocols, AHSAA executive director Steve Savarese made clear they should not be taken lightly.
