RENTON, Wash. (AP) - The organization that oversees high school sports in Washington is considering more specific rules for fans that could ban booing and offensive chants.
The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association is drafting guidelines to crack down on negative conduct.
The association director Mike Colbrese blames rude fans for the dwindling number of people who want to be coaches and officials. He says the guidelines will remind fans to cheer for their team, not against the other. (Copyright 2007 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
