Practices for Fall Sports in NH to Begin Next Month

There will be some form of a fall sports season in New Hampshire, reports the Associated Press.

The New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletics Association (NHIAA) has approved a plan that would allow fall high school sports teams to begin practices next month, and games after that.

Practices can begin on September 8th. Competitions for Bass Fishing and Golf can begin on September 10th, Cross Country, Field Hockey, Soccer, and Volleyball can begin on the 18th, with Football and Spirit beginning competition on the 25th.

The NHIAA is moving towards approving an “open tournament” format for the Cross Country, Field Hockey, Soccer, and Volleyball playoffs.

Individual school districts will have to decide for themselves if they wish for their student-athletes to participate.
