temperature cenditions under which basketball practices sheuld

My basketball practices are of the scrimmage variety and
players are withdrawn and replaced intermittantly.The players
not participating are inactive.

during games and also in the dressing room.

I should like reasons as I intend te quote yeu as authority ~~
in convincing my school cemmittee that I need more heat in my
gymnasium and dressing room. The average temperature in my gym
is new 62 degrees and in my dressing reom 60.

Yours very truly,
