Key state Senators and the N.C. High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA) will meet this week after the state Senate passed a bill that threatened the organization’s future. A meeting is set for July 28.
House Bill 91, Accountability and Fair Play in Athletics is the result of a months-long investigation into the NCHSAA that oversees high school sports in North Carolina. The bill would dramatically overhaul the governance of high school sports in North Carolina.
“Transparency and accountability which we as legislators have been asking for from the North Carolina High School Athletic Association for months but have not received,” said Senator Vickie Sawyer, R-Iredell.
