If a school closes for a week because of the flu what happens to the football game? Since its district do they play the game on friday night or what?

It's up to the administrators. My guess is most will insist the show goes on, as long as there are 11 healthy guys on each side.

I believe since its a district game both teams have to agree to the reschedule or it could be a forefit...I would imagine each district has their own protocol

but when would you have time to make the game up? Seems to me you would have to play the game.

Exactly you can't make it up...you can maybe get it pushed back to Sat but thats about it...
