One of the better ideas I’ve heard. My oldest plays HS soccer and baseball. He’d be thrilled if baseball moves to the Fall and soccer to the Spring so he could still play both. |

Add softball to that so you have girls soccer covered.

One potential issue is that it gets dark much earlier in the fall than in the spring. 7:00 PM sunsets begin in early April while sunsets in October are around 6:00, and then before 5:00 after daylight savings expires. Not sure how many high schools have lights for baseball

This has been discussed in Massachusetts. Fear is that if flip is done and something happens and the fall season needs to be scrubbed baseball, softball, etc would get bagged twice.

I'm hoping conditions are good enough to have winter sports in Jan & Feb, soccer & football in Mar & Apr; then baseball, etc in May & June. If they went with a plan like that then if conditions allow, everyone gets a part of their season.

If they went with a plan like that then if conditions allow, everyone gets a part of their season. That would be great but not enough is going to change for that to happen. Basketball is definitely not happening anywhere this winter, at least not in more populated states. Close contact and inside and no vaccine? No chance. A sport like baseball could probably be played safely in the spring without a vaccine. I’ll let you know at the end of my current Little League season. |

Maybe, but hoops being played may depend on what happens in the upcoming football season, if anyone indeed plays
