The Indiana High School Athletic Association has released its coronavirus guidelines for all schools participating in fall sports.
Fans will be allowed to attend games but with certain restrictions in place: bleachers must not exceed 50 percent capacity or 250 people – whichever is lower.
Families can attend games together but they must maintain a distance of 6 feet from other families.
Schools will also be allowed some flexibility in enforcing their own guidelines.
Athletes who are on the sidelines must wear a mask and if a game has to be cancelled it will not count as a forfeit, but rather a “no contest.”
