Wasn’t aware this was a forum for snitching smh. Maybe there’s exemptions. More power to any school that has the opportunity to continue competing. You got some serious issues, feel kinda sorry for you actually.

@ Opinion: Yeah, heard about them not having a season last yr and not being able to compete against the rest of the ILH Div II teams. Word has it, that was a very talented team that could’ve won the Div II title. It would be unfortunate if they weren’t able to compete in the ILH again this yr.
Hoping for the best for ALL the student athletes in Hawaii.

Paul Honda,
Hearing that University Lab School is still gonna play in an upcoming volleyball tournament. They fall under the DOE. Last season when the ILH moved volleyball to the spring, Lab school was the only program not allowed to play. Would you know why they are being allowed to play now while the rest of the DOE schools have been shut down? Mahalo

Perhaps they could allow the kids who are already vaccinated to be able to continue to practice? The shots been out since May for kids over 12yrs…

“but at least we can have a full season with no cancellations if we adhere to these new mandates”…

I think Coach is missing the fact that if anyone tests positive that the team will still need to quarantine i.e. game cancelled or postponed. Then, of course they wont have games then until after October 8th now… So, that means that you have very little time. There will be a season.. But Boys VB had a one game season this year. yikes.

Also, just because someone is vaccinated doesn’t mean that they cant get this delta variant. They may need to end up testing twice weekly too.

RIDICULOUS!!! The powers to be are jeopardizing all high school sports because a few student athletes have tested positive. That is insane. The student who tested positive serve your required quarantine period and the next man up will take your place. Isn’t that what athletics is all about. When your starter goes down, next man up.
There have been instances in the MLB, NBA and even the Olympics where athletes have tested positive. Their slot was taken over by the next man up. They did not cancel or delay the entire season or the Olympics!
For the powers to be who are making this decision to push back football until 9/24/21. Are you clueless. That would require the student athlete to do conditioning all over again which takes us into October before the first game is played. Usually that is when OIA playoffs have started pre covid.
Powers to be-do your job right OR next man up.
