UHSAA Board-of-Trustees Votes To Play Fall Season

MIDVALE, Utah (July 9, 2020) - In a meeting Thursday, the Utah High School Activities Association (UHSAA) Board-of-Trustees moved to continue statewide plans to begin the Fall season of education-based activities in Utah as scheduled, in accordance with plans to return to in-person or blended learning at high schools across the state.

The Association’s governing board also affirmed a stance of allowing schools and local school districts, in conjunction with local government leaders and health department officials, to determine whether participation in high school activities is allowable and advisable under statewide and local guidelines. The Board-of-Trustees will meet in late July to continue dialogue regarding statewide health recommendations and best practices.
