Fall Sports and Spectators: Who can attend?

PITTSBURGH -- The North Hills School District is continuing to follow its COVID-19 Return to Play Health and Safety Plan approved by the school board on June 30, 2020, as it has since fall sports began.

Spectators are permitted at home athletics events with restrictions as follows:

Varsity Football
All football players, marching band members and cheerleaders in attendance will be given two tickets each to each game. This applies to both home and visiting football players. Only spectators with tickets will be admitted to these events and no tickets will be available for purchase.

The rosters of both our home and away football teams remain limited to 40 players each. Our marching band is allowed 55 members and our cheerleading squad is allowed 10 members. Visiting teams are not permitted to bring their marching band or cheerleaders.

Girls Volleyball
All middle school, JV and varsity volleyball players on both the home and visiting team rosters will be given two tickets each to each match. Only spectators with tickets will be admitted to these events and no tickets will be available for purchase.

All Other Fall Sports
Tickets are not necessary for other middle school, JV or varsity fall sports, however, both home and away teams are encouraged to limit spectators to two family members only.

AT ALL EVENTS, when in attendance, spectators must wear face coverings at all times and follow social distancing guidelines. Seating areas, including bleachers, may be marked to adhere to occupancy limits and to allow for at least six feet between those not in the same household. Restrooms will be open but concession stands will be closed.

To bring the action to more fans, the athletics department has launched a new YouTube channel where they plan to stream events live when possible and post recordings.
