Per the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) all students are considered academically eligible to participate in fall sports due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

ATTENDING GAMES

Due to COVID-19 regulations, tickets to ANY sporting event cannot be offered to the general public at this time. Venues can only be filled to 15% capacity. The limited tickets are made available to the family members of competing athletes.

STREAMING GAMES

Those who cannot attend in-person can stream games through TKDS Sports. This new streaming service allows families to select a package and view games online, through a mobile app, or Roku. Users can select a game package to view a single game or all games in a season. Multiple users can view games on a single subscription. When using the app, scroll through the channels until you find the DPS game you wish to view.
