The meeting was held three days after a Board of Directors meeting in which the original July 27 start date for fall sports was given the green light.<\/p>\n<p>The Board of Directors will meet between August 10-17 to reassess the situation and make a decision on whether fall sports can begin on August 24.<\/p>\n<p>In between Monday\u2019s meeting and the meeting on Thursday night, most schools around the state indicated that they would not begin practice on July 27 because of concerns over COVID-19. During the Monday meeting, the Sports Medicine Advisory Committee (SMAC) recommended a delay to the start of the season, only to have that recommendation voted down unanimously.<\/p>\n<p>When schools started to indicate they would not begin practice on July 27, the FHSAA decided it needed to reconvene and met via Zoom on Thursday night. Several hours of discussion, as was the case on Monday, took place, with some members of the board seeking to keep the original start date. Those in favor of retaining the July 27 start date cited the fact that some parts of the state are not dealing with rampant cases of COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>However, discussion also revolved around fairness across the state and the difficulty of allowing some schools to begin practice while others, such as those in South Florida where COVID-19 is rampant, would have to remain idle.<\/p>\n<p>In Florida, swimming is a fall sport and the state typically produces some of the fastest times in the country.
