CIAC Statement Following Release of DPH Position

CHESHIRE, Conn. – The CIAC appreciates the detailed position provided by DPH this morning on the topic of fall interscholastic athletics. As has been stated throughout this process, the Board of Control will review any new information as soon as it becomes available, and it will be doing that with these recommendations in detail.

After reviewing its proposed fall sports plan with the Connecticut Rules Committee, which included DPH staff, on July 24, CIAC requested DPH’s position on football on July 28. That request resulted in a phone conversation with DPH staff. The CIAC board is appreciative to have received such detailed information following its additional consults.
