Re: Competition volume

The absurd sound levels are definitely one of those "non glamorous" genuine safety concerns that I wish FIRST would address with guidelines and enforcement for maximum sound levels.

For the past few years I always wear earplugs in the stands because the volume is just too high. It might seem cool once or twice in high school, but a decade of regionals starts to take a toll.

The only difference setting the volume level at 11 gets you instead of 7 is permanent bodily harm.
