Playing the varsity girls & boys games at same venue/same night

[Keith_Stone33]

I really like the idea of playing the girls and guys varsity games at the same venue on the same night. Lee got to do this a couple times during the playoffs and it was great for the fans that wish to support both teams. I know some teams have done this during the regular season, and I would be curious to know how other folks feel about it.

Playing the varsity games together would probably require the JV games to be played at another venue, which I can see causing some problems, but to me, the pros outweigh the cons.

I was not a fan of the VHSL moving girls basketball to the winter (I loved it in the fall), pairing it with the boys, but I feel like playing the games at the same venue/same night would make them playing in the same season much better.

Some districts have/used to have Varsity double-headers.

For example, the Varsity teams would play Friday and the JV teams would play Thursday.

I'm not sure if that makes more or less money - which would be the ultimate deciding factor unfortunately.

Boys and girls SHOULD NOT PLAY on same night.

Boys and girls SHOULD NOT PLAY on same night.

Around here they schedule them both for the same night at different venues. If they are going play on the same night, I wish it was at the same place, but I would not be opposed to them playing on separate nights just so I could support both teams equally.

I know I would have liked to see more of the boys JV/Varsity games but hey, I did get to see a lot of great girl's basketball games.
