The FHSAA Office announced today the venues that received the highest rankings by the Association to host its spring championships in the next two to three years.
The FHSAA ranked all proposals it received from the bidding venues for each sport's championship. The highest-ranked bid in each sport was notified of its standing and was subsequently offered a contract. All venues and the FHSAA are currently in contract negotiation with a 30-day deadline.
The track & field state finals will move to the University of North Florida in Jacksonville after Showalter Field in Winter Park has served as host for all classes for the last five years, and classes 3A and 4A in 2006. Classes 1A and 2A that year were held at Wolfson High School, the only other time the track & field finals have been in Jacksonville. This ranking beat out a bid from the University of Florida to use Percy Beard Track.
