BLAINE, Wash. — Blaine High School football players have begun holding daily practices after more than a year off.

Head coach Jay Dodd told The Northern Light the practices will feature physical conditioning and small six-person groups for football-specific drills.

Dodd and the district’s athletic director Sean Linville said Blaine High School is currently working on a plan for safely resuming athletics if the region moves into phase 2.

If and when the football season does resume, it will be condensed to seven weeks and may not include state playoffs.
