The Denver Broncos, in partnership with the Colorado High School Activities Association, are hosting the third annual High School Media Day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Monday, August 16, at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver. 

The event will include two special sessions – a prep sports media roundtable and an hour-long press conference for all non-football fall sports. The football event will mirror what was presented in 2019, featuring 20 of the best high school football teams in the state across all classifications, as well as 20 athletes in other sports, and will provide sports media members with a one-stop shop to visit with some of the top student-athletes in Colorado. 

The media roundtable will begin at 9:30 a.m. Athlete press conferences will begin at 10 a.m. Both will be held in the Broncos home media room. 

“The media roundtable features a chance for the media to learn about important CHSAA initiatives and meet new Director of Digital Media Director Brad Cochi, as well as Assistant Digital Media Director Dan Whitaker, who are now overseeing media relations,” said Commissioner Rhonda-Blanford Green. 

All participants in attendance wearing game jerseys/uniforms and will be available for interviews including both time on the podium and one-on-one opportunities.
