UPDATE: VHSL to allow summer workouts beginning June 15

The Virginia High School League will allow teams statewide to begin summer workouts beginning Monday following a vote by the athletic group’s executive committee.

The sanctioning group has also suspended their Summer dead period for 2020 that will allow schools to practice from June 29 to July 4th.

VHSL Executive Director Billy Haun said practice will follow pandemic safety guidelines and that students will need conditioning now for fall semester sports after athletic events and activities were canceled for three months due to the coronavirus outbreak.
