NIAA moves all 2020-21 prep sports to Spring

NIAA moves all 2020-21 prep sports to Spring

Robert Perea, The Fernley Reporter

Prep sports in Nevada will be played in truncated seasons next spring under the latest directive from the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association.

The adjustments, announced Thursday, were the result of consultation with northern and southern league and region presidents in each of the classifications, the NIAA said.

Under the new plan, the winter sports season would begin with practice Jan. 2 and end with the last contest on Feb. 20. The fall sports season would follow with practice beginning on Feb. 13 for football and Feb. 20 for other sports, and the last contest played on April 10.

Spring sports practice would begin April 3 with the last contest on May 22.

Those dates would include any playoffs, but the NIAA said it does not anticipate that there would be State Tournaments.

The entire NIAA release is available at https://niaa.com/sports/niaa_releases/07-23-2020_Update_11_Adjustment_of_Sports_Seasons_1.pdf

For a large municipal facility like the indoor-outdoor Fernley Swimming Pool located at 300 Cottonwood Lane, a complete ground-up commercial build or major structural renovation typically spans 6 to 12 months or longer when factoring in large-scale engineering, public municipal permitting, specialized commercial HVAC/roofing, and health department inspections. The current renovation has been- The Fernley Swimming Pool has been closed for approximately six to seven months since late February 2026 for a major roof replacement and facility renovation. Now you sat October. Soooo 8 months for a new roof. The picture shows no other renovations.

It smells like sewage and it can be bad enough that people don’t want to be outside or open their windows. It would be helpful to get an investigative journalist help the Fernley residents get a clear answer from the City, NDEP, and any involved facilities. I was really disappointed that the smell was not disclosed by my realtor when I moved here. I enjoy Fernley and am seeing the improvements that are being made.
