Media representatives wishing to pursue a story will need to seek approval from the Sioux Falls School District Communities Relations Office.  Supervisor – DeeAnn Konrad can be contacted at DeeAnn.Konrad@k12.sd.us. Please copy Michelle Wilson, Athletics Specialist at michelle.wilson@k12.sd.us.  

Interviews and photo/video sessions will be arranged at a time that will not interfere with the student‐athlete's academic schedule or coach or administrator’s daily responsibilities. Requests should be made at least two days in advance to allow proper notification to the player, coach, or administrator. 

Gameday: Pre‐game and Post‐Game interviews of any player, coach or school official are permitted, with the approval of the head coach.

Should be prepared to use an alternate broadcast location as many of our locations are limited by space. 

Locker rooms at all Sioux Falls School District activities (practice, event, or competition) will be closed to all reporters, photographers, and videographers. 

Interviews and/or live microphones on a coach and/or player during any portion of the actual athletic contest, to include team huddles and locker rooms, are not permitted.

All members of the media must remain outside of the team bench, official scorers’ area, and designated team areas for the duration of the contest, to include during starting lineups and timeouts. Media personnel should always remain off the competition arena.  For football, all media must always remain outside of the 25-yard team box markers and behind the black/white dotted media line.  

All media members must be mobile (no tripods) and may not be in a position where they may interfere with the contest.
