Starting Monday, the BIIF will allow a limited number of fans at a school’s discretion for all league winter sports, provided mandatory masks are properly worn (not below the nose) at all time by all spectators for indoor and outdoor events.
According to a release from the league Friday, individual schools will determine how many spectators are allowed in their venue. Physical distancing of at least 6 feet between groups of different households is mandatory.
Spectators must be fully vaccinated or provide a negative COVID test taken within 48 hours of the athletic event. Children ages 5 years and older are eligible for COVID vaccination are subject to all vaccination/testing requirements. Children 4 years and younger will not be required to test. Children 13 years or younger must be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian.
There will be no socializing before or after a BIIF athletic event.
Concessions will not be available at any regular-season BIIF venues at this time.
BIIF schools that use county facilities may be subject to county guidelines that may override BIIF guidelines.
A copy of the guidelines can be found on the BIIF website at www.biifsport.com.
