We are hours away from the final IHSA board of directors meeting for the 2024-25 school year. On Monday morning, this group will come together once again and go through general checklist items before having discussions on how to help enhance items for the upcoming and future
High school soccer in Illinois is entering into yet another state of stupidity crisis. You won’t find a yellow-card reporting system more messed up than that of the #IHSA, where it relies on officials to report yellow cards to ensure all kids are treated fairly. Officials pick

Historic day for St. Laurence post its merger with Queen of Peace in 2017. Prior to the merger of the two Burbank high schools, Queen of Peace had never won a state trophy in softball but did capture three sectional crowns dating back to 1962. #IHSA

All night long, I’ve been talking to school leaders throughout Illinois - statewide. There is a very consistent theme: The IHSA knows it is close to losing its control. For years, it has controlled and owned student athletes and their families - especially on Sundays. It took

So we have movement from the IHSA, which officially submitted a suggested by-law change to the #ILSen on April 29 in order to get legislation halted in Springfield. The legislation would provide waivers to high school student athletes, and you can read more about the Right To
Here is a breakdown of the Right To Play Bill, which is in the Illinois Senate after passing through an #ILHouse committee 12-0 and full House vote. It is this and only this for high school student athletes, families and their schools in Illinois: What the bill does - Allows

For those wondering what the Right To Play Waiver Bill, this is a very balanced, straight forward story. Again, the key is this: All kids - not just some - will have the opportunity - if they like - to do charity and community events, too. Make sure you read to engage and

Tonight, the Right To Play Bill is one step closer to becoming law. Think about that: A law needs to be created, because a private third-party organization - which makes millions off student athletes - is restricting what student athletes can do in their free and weekend time.

Annie Fowler is one of the best girls soccer players in Illinois, and one of the most accomplished in the country. Guess what: She’s only a sophomore at New Trier. Annie was selected to participate against some of the top foreign competition on April 20, which is Easter Sunday.

Bill Savarino is one of the greatest student athletes in IHSA history. The Brother Rice legend went on to play at the University of Notre Dame. Are we helping or hurting student athletes? It’s time for school leaders to have some honest conversations.
@TrustTrost What a shame! Taking away such a great opportunity for Annie. Come on IHSA! Thankfully during my playing days our biggest youth national events was during Thanksgiving. IHSA rethink your rules! It’s hurting our youth players.

Have you ever asked a school leader why high school student athletes in Illinois can’t do things in their free and weekend time - especially on Sundays? Seriously, I want you to ask. Then I want you to ask them this: How many high school student athletes sit the bench the
