Coin flips: Future home teams for 5A, 4A and 3A football championships

The following information shows the designated home team for potential championship football on Saturday, Dec. 5. The formula for determining the home team is shown on page 54 of the football bulletin.

Sites are determined each week at the CHSAA office, one-and-a-half weeks prior to the next round. When possible, this will be live-streamed. View the archived video of this week’s coin flips here.

Explanation

How the home sites are determined.

• For 5A, 4A, 3A, and 1A: The team with the fewest playoff home games will host. If equal, the higher seed will host. If seed is equal, a coin flip will be used. In 3A, the championship game will be at the higher seed regardless of the number of home games hosted.
• For 2A: The team with the fewest playoff home games will host. If equal, the higher seed will host. Exception: If playoff home games are equal, and the opponents are from the same conference, the school with the higher conference standing in the regular season shall be the host.
• For 8-man and 6-man: The team with the fewest playoff home games will host. If equal, a coin flip determines the home team.

Future home sites

Key: Home games – Fewest home playoff games; Higher seed – The highest seeded team; Mileage – One-way mileage.
