SPORTS SPECTATORS - As per the recent regulations set forth by the state, spectators at sporting events will be very limited. There are very few tickets available for the home Football games. These tickets will be distributed to only the families of our seniors for football, cheerleading, and band. The number of tickets will vary with each game. With our other outdoor events, entrance to the event will be capped at 250. There will be no spectators at our indoor events such as Volleyball and Jr. High girls’ basketball due to that number being set at 25. In an effort to allow of the fans to see the events that are limited to spectators, we will be live streaming Iroquois Football, Volleyball, and Jr. High Basketball on our Youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyosU9W0Sl0mOHVF5urOV_g
