The state released updated EEA guidelines for sports today. Football will be allowed to play in the Fall-2 season.
The MIAA BOD voted in August to move 🏈 to the Fall-2 season so T-Days will not happen, but this is good news for winter sports and everyone in Fall 2!

Attention Fall S-A's: We are still awaiting guidance from DESE/MIAA re: fall sports so please remain hopeful and patient! Sports registration has NOT YET been opened for fall. If/when it does, communication will be sent out.
MHSFCA would be fine with spring football but would like to see some Fall workouts and a combine for seniors to help with recruiting. This can be done within the EEA standards
The MIAA Board of Directors votes unanimously that Fall sports, those approved for participation by DESE, EEA and local school district, will start no earlier than Sept. 14, 2020 with preseason tryouts/practices. Additional guidance from DESE and EEA should be available by Aug. 1
Story out in tomorrow's Boston Herald on what to expect at the MIAA Board of Directors Meeting on Tuesday, as well as what discussions are ongoing within the state government on how to have a safe return to play in the fall.
Hearing that @WeAreDanvers tight end/defensive end @ChronisAndrew has commited to Hamilton College. Two-time Northeastern Conference All-League selection as both a lineman and a tight end is quick on his feet, hits with abandon and is extremely versatile. @DanversFootball
