Although not a FB topic, I solicit opinions of the many parents/coaches contributing to this forum. IHSA and conference terms and conditions or by-laws allow for end-of-season competitions to be conducted in a window from Thursday (sometimes Weds.) afternoon through Saturday afternoon. The former is almost universally chosen putting student-athletes out of their homes until very late hours during school nights. I have heard all the arguments about proms, weather and the like, but the fact remains that such weeknight scheduling is NOT in the best academic or health interests of the student. I question the oversight of principals about what is truly going on in this regard. Similarly, some sports schedule time-consuming contests like quad meets sometimes at great distance and/or schedule 3 or 4 contests during the Monday-Thursday part of the week. What say you?
