** The WIAA Board of Control is meeting on Tuesday, 4/21 to decide the fate of the high school spring sports season in WI. Please sign and share - your support means everything! **

With schools closed through the rest of the 2019-2020 school year, our spring athletic programs, including boys' tennis, have been suspended, while students continue to learn and be engaged in school. Please give our student athletes SOMETHING - a full season that extends into summer or even a partial season.

We believe student athletes and coaches who love these sports would be willing to make an extended schedule work for everyone. The schedule could allow time for the curve to effectively flatten and put safeguards in place to ensure a safe spring sports season in Wisconsin. 

One of the unique things about spring sports is that unlike other sports (volleyball, basketball, swimming, wrestling), they’re mostly conducted outside – and with golf and tennis, from a pretty safe distance. 

The kids are in still learning - they're still accountable to gaining knowledge, getting good grades, studying and testing. They just aren’t inside the buildings. They are all so anxious to get out into the fresh air and compete for their schools! From the seniors who are looking forward to their last year to the freshmen who are looking forward to their first year with their teams, our student athletes work hard all year for this opportunity.

In addition to the physical activity and competition, these students grow as individuals in important ways every year through their participation in sports.

Please find a way to make a spring sports season happen in Wisconsin.
