High School Sports Programs Balancing Another Overlap of Sports Seasons

Nearly a month removed from the overlap of the abbreviated high school winter sports season and pandemic postponed spring high school sports season; coaches, athletes, and administrators are balancing the overlap of the spring and summer sports seasons.

 

Hall of Fame football coach at Monticello High School, Cully Welter indicates this is definitely a challenge as many programs share not only athletes but coaches. He also points out, it puts a lot of stress on the kids as Monticello encourages youth to play as many sports as possible.

 

 

The IHSA indicated out of their April board of directors meeting they are planning for a regular sports season in 2021-22 with state competitions. They also announced a 'summer' sports state series will happen and announced the sites for those series' this week as well.

 

Unlike the winter and 'spring' sports seasons, there will be an overlap in competitions for 'spring' and 'summer' sports starting next week.
