      HS sports are played for both the enjoyment/athletic experience of the players and the enjoyment of the fans. It's both.

      If no one cares about my desires, then that's sad because taking even less than a 1% risk of any one player contracting the virus while playing in a game that's basically a friendly and counts toward no conf standings whatsoever is just plain wrong. And making people wait more than 5 months through all this adversity to find a definitive answer only to find out the games will be friendlies and matchups between the best teams in the conf will not even happen is just plain wrong as well. It's an absolute disgrace really.

        You just haven't complained enough about it. Please, give us more.

            Why should I stop? We're trying to salvage something out of a trainwreck year of absolute misery here buddy, and the current plan in place to try and do that (or so they claim) makes no logical sense whatsoever. This is serious. People have suffered through too much just to get to this point for there to not be a definitive answer to finish off this story. Just don't get the responses that say "Accept this reality that the schedule won't be what you like and move on." It's like seriously, what exactly am I supposed to move on to? 2021? Well that's pretty darn sad because 2021 is so far into the future that it's depressing to even think about the fact we are that close to it!

              Go whine to ever has made the decisions for your kids' school. That might be a little more effective than complaining for weeks on an anonymous chat board. Just a thought.

                I just watched a high school match involving my old school on the NFHS app. Everyone was masked. It looked like a normal game. The only odd thing was that the camera was left running after the game - obviously in the press box. So game over. Field cleaned up and emptied - not many spectators. I think only 2 per player are allowed. Lights turned off. Camera has view of the school building in the dark for another hour or so.

                The NFHS app looks like it has a good many schools involved and doing lots of different sports.

                  Ours will be using it and the grandparents are excited to be able to see the games. Hopefully it is a technology that is kept long after Covid

                    It’s not a new Covid inspired technology this year, it’s been around for several already. It’s not a bad option, quality is ok/decent, and at times can’t keep up with the action, but it’s a nice alternative.

                      Of course it isn't new but very schools used it before. Nice option moving forward like the poster said for family, working/traveling parents. Usually booster clubs have to pay someone to video games or find a parent or school student to do it with not always good quality (or reliability)

                          can you download from NFHS and make highlight videos?

                            No you can’t unfortunately, but it’s easy enough to screen record, then edit clips.

                              Maybe it should be an omen for cancelling this dead end season at the final hour right before the calendar turns to October 1st....bur it doesn't look like that's going to happen.
