On Monday, August 3, 2020 California released an official youth sports guidance laying out conditions for all youth sports. Sports that cannot be played with physical distancing are limited to only conditioning and training, and only where physical distance can be maintained. While distanced drills and conditioning are allowed, team competition is not.
The guidance prohibits “tournaments, events, or competitions, regardless of whether teams are from the same school or from different schools, counties, or states.” This guidance applies to all youth sports programs including school-based, club, and recreational programs.
This guidance cancels any competitions for the Fall Sevens and the season is now postponed until further notice. Rugby NorCal continues to monitor students returning to school and sports and will update the membership when new information becomes available.
