Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update – Addendum to Today’s Update: IHSA Announces New Sports Schedule

The Illinois High School Association (IHSA) Board just announced a new four-season sports schedule. Seasons will be shorter and some sports like football, girls’ volleyball and boys’ soccer are switching from fall to winter but will not be cancelling any sports. Boys and girls golf, girl’s tennis, cross country and girls swimming and diving will remain fall sports, and will begin August 10 as originally scheduled.  Baseball, softball, track and field, girls’ soccer, boys’ volleyball, lacrosse and boy’s tennis, which all typically have spring seasons, will now be played in the summer.   

The fall season will now run Aug. 10 to Oct. 24. The winter season will run Nov. 16 to Feb. 13. The spring season will run Feb. 15 to May. The summer season will run May 3 to June 3.

Attached to this Update is the IHSA new schedule
