HBO Polls: Cutting Prep Sports

In a CDA Press story by Maureen Dolan this morning, Superintendent Hazel Bauman said the Coeur d’Alene School District could cut athletics programs by as much as $800,000. How would you go about trimming the sports budgets?

*Eliminate travel to southern Idaho, except for state competition.

*Eliminate some less popular sports that don’t attract fan revenue.

*Make an across-the-board trim of all sports programs.

*Schedule fund-raisers to make up as much money as possible.

*Leave sports alone by cutting elsewhere.
