Why this petition matters

Started by Meagen O'Connell

Currently the state of North Carolina has a restriction of 100 people at an outdoor high school sporting event.

With many stadiums across the state holding thousands, this number is just way too low.  For some teams that carry large rosters, this number won't even allow for two parents to attend a game. If you include visiting spectators, some players may not even have one parent/family member able to attend.

It's hard to accept this number of 100 spectators outdoors when you walk around local retail stores, restaurants, gyms and more and there are far more than 100 people and that is indoors.

Though we are grateful to be playing, we ask that you consider allowing more spectators in.  It can be done safely with of course mask mandates and social distancing put into place.

Our kids deserve this. They have endured so much through this pandemic and should at least have their families there to support them.
