For now, it looks as if high school sports will happen in the Commonwealth. The Kentucky High School Athletic Association has decided to move forward with fall high school sports. The Board of Control met yesterday morning, deciding to go with their Option 1, which maintains their previous plan for fall sports. That means fall sports, such as Football, Soccer, Volleyball, Cross Country, Field Hockey, will start full practices next Monday, August 24th. Seasons start on September 7th, except for football. The football season will kickoff on September 11th.
