On Saturday, CHSAA sent out new guidelines for winter sports that will allow us to not include essential personnel in our maximum capacity of 50 individuals during indoor sports. Essential personnel during athletic events include players, coaches, administrators and trainers.

Updated guidelines required that we consult with the local health department to determine who could be counted among the 50 that is allowed in the gymnasium. After a meeting held on Monday morning, it was determined that we will be able to allow 2 spectators per home player to attend in person.

As Covid restrictions change, we will continue to adjust the number of fans that are allowed to attend home games in person.

Prior to the event, athletes will need to designate to the athletic director, their 2 designated spectators attending the game/meet. The gym will be cleared after each game for each level. For example: If a parent attends the JV game, they will have to leave the building. They would only return to the gym if they were designated to attend the varsity game. No early entry to the building or gymnasium will be allowed by any spectators. Instead of a ticketing system, spectators will need to check in at the gate when they pay their gate fee. Please be prepared to show identification.

Covid requirements will be enforced and all spectators will be required to wear masks and six foot distance from non-related individuals. No Concessions will be available and no food or drink will be allowed to be brought into the building.”

CHSAA had previously sent out guidance for spectators on January 15, stating that “spectators must follow the indoor/outdoor events guidance that is permitted in their county’s jurisdiction. Spectators must wear masks indoors at all times.
