For soccer, volleyball and cross country, practices can begin Monday with competition starting Aug. 31.

But with Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear’s recommendation to delay in-person classes until October, the KHSAA BOC could delay the start of sports.

There are currently six items on Thursday’s agenda.

• Review of Known Date, NCAA Fall Recruiting Calendar
• Review Four-Year Average Enrollment Figures-Football and Necessary Action for 2021 season
• Set dates for 2020-21 Dance and Competitive Cheer Championships
• Consider Fall Season Scheduling Calendar
• Consider any other Covid-19 Pandemic Relation Item Consider Review of Contest Limitations

Football coaches from around the state have taken to social media to show why they think the season should go on as scheduled.

On Monday, the Kentucky Football Coaches Association Twitter account posted a graphic about coaches responses to COVID.

Coaches and teams from around the state posted their results as well.

Tomorrow will complete approximately 8 weeks of workouts for @ApolloEaglesFo1 . About 90 kids and 10 coaches on the roster. Of those 90 kids and 10 coaches? ZERO Covid cases. We have done it right and we hope we can continue!

On Tuesday, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said he will be issuing an order that sports may continue this fall but added a caveat in his next tweet.

“Additionally, there will be no spectators other than family members or individuals very close to the student athletes,” DeWine said in his tweet.

While fan attendance hasn’t been voted upon by the KHSAA’s Board of Control, if they vote to continue with the fall season as scheduled, it should be addressed Thursday.
