Las Vegas, NV (KXNT) - The Clark County School District informed principals and assistant principals Friday its member schools will not participate in the fall sports season.

The announcement was made in a statement sent from CCSD athletic director Tim Jackson.

“The District will not participate in any Season 2 Fall sports, which include cross country, football, girls golf, soccer, tennis, girls volleyball and middle school basketball for the 2020-2021 school year. As a reminder, all schools are to remain closed for athletic purposes,”

CCSD had created a six-week schedule for sports moved from fall semester to spring, hopeful that in-person instruction would have returned by them. With a full return for students and teachers unlikely before the end of the school year, the district made the decision to scuttle the rescheduled sports.
