There will be several protocols for fan seating. Teams will be assigned to either the home or visitors side of the field. To allow for social distancing every other row will be blocked off and no fan will be allowed to sit in those rows. Seating will be strictly enforced. Family groups of up to 10 will be allowed to sit together. There, however must be at least 3 seats between each family group at all times. We ask that fans remain in that same seating for the entirety of the whole game. No fans will be allowed to stand or gather in the walkway at the front of the stadium.
All people entering Fischer Field will be required to wear a mask at all times, even while sitting in the stadium. If you forget your personal mask, there will be masks available at the ticketing office for purchase. Attendees not wearing a mask will be asked to put one on immediately. Refusal to wear a mask will result in removal from the stadium premises. Please inform your fans to not come to the game if they do not want to oblige by mask mandates.
Only players, coaches, team personnel and cheerleaders will be allowed inside the fenced area of the field.
The hospitality area will only be used for staff and volunteers this year. No administrators and/or media will be allowed. We apologize that we can’t provide this area as we have in the past but look forward to hosting everyone in this area in 2021.
At the conclusion of the games there will be a presentation of the championship awards. No one will be allowed on the field except for the players and coaches. At the end of the presentation, teams must then proceed to their locker rooms, shower and dress as quickly as possible. fans must exit the stadium to allow for staff to disinfect the entire stadium for the second game.
