You've been leaders in showing how sports can be played safely at the collegiate level during the pandemic, and we know many other Midwest states have and continue to do so at the high school level.

The #IHSA will take part in discussions with leaders from IDPH & ISBE on July 24. We expect this meeting will provide important guidance on how the IHSA will proceed with fall sports. As a result, we have postponed the IHSA Board Meeting scheduled for July 22 until July 29.
