Where have they said this? Where is it written? This is exactly why I asked the question. The only rule changes I have seen in writing have been about covid. Please show me where I can find this information. (Not trying to be sarcastic).

If a kid were to transfer from out of state, having played in a shortened season from another state. Would they be eligible to play in Virginia this spring?
I don't know of anybody in this situation, just curious.
no they can not play, i know a kid moved from mt view to graham recently who played all season with mt view so he will be illegal if he were to play with graham. A kid left the beavers and moved to GW and hes not allowed to play either.
While allowing 250 sounds like it will help, it will also cause problems because not everyone can get in that needs to get in. I'm not talking about the general fans, but family. Every student that participates, whether it be a player, manager, cheerleader, band member, or whatever, will not likely be able to get two people into the games, and tough decisions will have to be made by administrators. These decisions are not popular with everyone, and cause hard feelings. This pandemic has caused a tremendous amount of stress among us all, and having to decide who can attend and who can't is only going to add more stress in my opinion.
It still amazes me how it is acceptable to have 400 people indoors in a Walmart store and only allow 250 spectators outdoors at a football game.
We have been talking about this for a while now. Band and Cheerleaders are considered spectators, players get 2 tickets each for family. Not leaving a whole lot for others. I saw where one school system is planning to classify their band members and cheerleaders as "participants" to free up more tickets. Rumor is 30 percent capacity at beginning of march.
band and cheerleaders are know participants not spectators
i know one coach said they can get what they need done in a gym. not sure that is correct. cant get cardio and passing game in and kids need to be in the weather since they will be playing in it. gym makes no sense to me
That is what the "rule" is. It makes a ton of since honestly even though I hate the rule. Lets just say Graham or Union are about to make a run to the state semis and one kid goes to football practice and another kid that doesnt play basketball test positive for COVID then both teams are done for 2 weeks. For football that means less practice for the first game. For those basketball player that dont play football that means a chance a state just got ripped from them... again. Like I said I absolutely hate the rule but I completely understand it.
go to faceshield.actuatedmedical.com/football-helmet-lower-shields-1-set-p224244238 copy and past into address bar. if these are worn then shouldn't have to quarantine since this is a mask.
Home teams are allowed 2 tickets per player. In my opinion all of this is very dumb. They should rope off the stands with sections 6 feet apart, Require mask, and if you got vaccinated then that card should be used as VHSL pass. It’s really pretty simple but the people in charge are absolutely incompetent.
Winter sports season just passed without our teams being allowed to participate in a single regulation match/game of any kind. But practices occurred every day under certain protocols. In wrestling, for example, they had to stop every 50 minutes and sterilize/wash their hands. Because....yeah.
This isn't as bad as what the good folks of Prince Edward experienced circa 1960. But it sure feels closely aligned to it.
this is so far out of control and covid karens out in force hall monitoring
If kids can run into each other and tackle each other, then the parents and fans can sit in stands 6 feet apart with masks on. It makes absolutely no sense at all.
if mask work why 6 feet apart and if 6 feet apart why mask?
Here in the People's Republic of Bedford, the only home team attendees will be the actual football team and cheerleaders. However, the visiting team can bring as many spectators as VHSL/state protocols will allow (including their band, if they choose).
I'm not a fan of Wilmore after having sat across from him in a board room setting on a few occasions. I find him to be conceited, arrogant and dense! McPherson is not completely without blame though. He fought to get Bermuda grass on the football field, even after local professionals and various folks from the Turf Management Program at VT insisted it would be difficult at best in Grayson County and impossible given the football field location being shaded by a mountain 80% of the day. McPherson did it anyway. That whole episode has been an abject failure and the county is going to have to eat the cost of replacing the Bermuda. But all in all, he has been a good role model for the kids of Grayson County. I like him and his extended family. His sister-in-law is one of the top three teachers in the Galax school system.
To expound a bit on the situation in Grayson County. Over the past decade, the sheriff's department has seen about an 80% turnover rate. The county government has seen more than 50% turnover over in that same time period. Grayson County has had three county administrators over the past decade. The school system sees, on average, about 40% of it's staff leave after every school year and Wilmore is the 4th superintendent since I moved back to the area in 2007. Over the course of a decade, that's an enormous "brain drain" for a county that is already experiencing near-record population loss.
I drive by that field at least 2 x week it looks good. its dormant at the moment. no need to replace it
