Arizona Interscholastic Association Greenlights High School Sports

The executive board of the Arizona Interscholastic Association has given high school sports the green light to play this fall.

The board endorsed guidelines the Sports Medicine Advisory Committee had proposed to make way for the safe return of high school sports and activities.

The board says with COVID-19 cases declining in the state, sports can successfully resume.

Schools have the option to begin football practice as early as Labor Day.
