We’ll, considering the high school playoffs don’t end until the first week in December AND all the winter sports are in full go, I just don’t see after the season as a viable option. You already have a bunch of kids sitting the game out…you’d have even more sitting out for winter sports right  after the season. Also, teams start sending their equipment out for reconditioning right after the season. Just too much stuff to get in the way. This is the right time to play the game. It allows most who want to participate to be able to do so.

I agree with this, but as to the bolded, what equipment do the players use in this game? Surely the school's don't allow a one week use of reconditioned equipment?

What else are they going to use? Some players do have their own helmets but for the most part players are using their schools equipment. Football isn't like baseball where all players have their own glove, cleats and most have a bat.

The kids not having the equipment was why I wondered this. Do they send it back out to be reconditioned again after? How does that work?

if they don’t, when does equipment need to be reconditioned? Just curious.

Seems to work for the Louisville area. They play the all star the week following the state game.
