Still hoping for changes in contact sports guidance from state officials this week, the Oregon Schools Activities Association executive board on Monday made provisions for football and volleyball as the start date for both sports approaches.  The state classifies both as contact sports, so under current guidance, football in all counties and volleyball in extreme-risk counties would be prohibited from joining soccer and cross country to start their seasons on March 1.  Volleyball outside of extreme-risk counties is permitted.  OSAA executive director Peter Weber did say they anticipated new guidance in the next couple of days that could allow for football and volleyball.  Football teams could begin non-contact practices Monday, but without changes to state guidance, contact practices and games would not be allowed.  In that event, the board approved potential football activities such as 7-on-7, flag, virtual lineman challenge and virtual combine.  The board voted to proceed with soccer and cross country. Both sports can begin practicing Feb. 22 and start contests March 1.  The board also voted to proceed with volleyball for the 47 schools located in the 12 lower, moderate and high-risk counties.  For the schools in the 24 extreme-risk counties, the board approved outdoor volleyball as an option.  Volleyball teams also could benefit from the board approving a “change of season request form.”  Schools, leagues and regions not currently permitted to participate in an activity can request to shift their seasons to a later date, when they would be allowed to participate.  The board voted to table the discussion on culminating week events until its next meeting, a Feb. 17 work session.
