Key Health & Safety Guidelines (UPDATED!):
Masks are optional for Spectators & Players.

Teams & Fans should depart immediately after their games end!

Teams & Coaches may enter the gym 20 minutes prior to their game time. Fans should enter no earlier than 15 minutes prior to their game time and should wait until the previous game is over at the single court gyms. This keeps plenty of space in the gym to social distance.

**BSA is Allowing Spectators in to watch games this weekend!**

*Only active rostered players and up to 2 Coaches per team, along with the refs, 1 Tournament scorekeeper and a cameraperson (if available) may be in the designated court area! Parents and fans must sit or stand in the designated fan areas. Please do not move or put chairs in or around the court areas! Team Scorekeeper (if not 1 of the 2 allowed coaches), injured players and siblings should not be in the court area! Players from teams not playing should not be in the facility unless it is their team warm up time.
