Athletics

In addition to the adoption of all requirements outlined in this Health & Safety plan, the following applies to all athletics and athletic-related activities. For the purposes of this plan, "athletic-related activities" include coaches and all athletic staff (inclusive of student-assistants), student-athletes, pep band, cheer, and club sports

Resumption of Athletic Activities

All athletic plans should adhere to NCAA and Gulf South Conference regulations and CDC guidelines, and should be consistent with this plan where possible. Prior to the resumption of activities, all staff and student-athletes will receive targeted education on COVID-19 and be fully informed of relevant prevention measures.

Events

All university-sponsored athletic events will be conducted in compliance with all governing regulations (i.e., CDC, state and local public health ordinances, and NCAA and Gulf South Conference guidelines), and consistent with this plan.

Because of the uncertainty surrounding future COVID-19-related restrictions, the Department of Athletics will develop multiple models for the admission of event spectators at various density levels.
