Adrian, MI – Thousands of coaches, parents, students athletes, and legislatures gathered in Lansing Saturday afternoon to rally for high school and youth winter sports to resume immediately.

State Senator Dale Zorn spoke at the rally, and said: “Considering all the positive benefits of youth sports and the facts that repeatedly show our student athletes can compete safely, we implore the governor to let them play.”

The Michigan Senate passed a resolution sponsored by Zorn to urge Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to lift the suspension on high school and youth sports and allow play to resume immediately.

Health orders issued by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services have delayed the start of high school and youth winter sports competition to February 22nd.
