CURRENT NO-CONTACT RULE

In recent correspondences sent to school administrators, our office (OHSAA) has issued a no-contact period for all OHSAA sports through May 1. This no-contact period for OHSAA member schools has now been extended to June 1, 2020. This is to assist with Governor DeWine’s stay-at-home order and to ensure that school facilities remain closed and are not opened to school coaches and/or athletes. Further, per an order signed by Dr. Amy Acton, Director of Health, on April 29, 2020, all school buildings that provide any K-12 instruction are to remain closed to students until 11:59pm on June 30, 2020. To read the full order, please follow this link: https://coronavirus.ohio.gov/static/publicorders/Second-Amended-Order-the-Closure-K-12-Schools-Ohio-Reader.pdf.

As a reminder, this no-contact period prohibits any coach, paid or volunteer, to provide coaching, instruction or supervising conditioning and physical fitness programs or open gyms, to members of a school team in their sports. This does not include communication to your student-athletes, nor does it include electronic individual workouts, as long as those workouts can be done individually and do not promote group gatherings."

With much sadness and a heavy heart, the OHSBVA announces the formal cancelation of the 2020 regular season and tournament. More information will be shared as it becomes known. 

The current no-contact period remains in effect at least through May 3rd
