Athletic Events & Facilities

Athletic Events & Facilities

GOAL

Develop protocols based on best practices as recommended by the CDC, State of Florida, NAIA and The Sun Conference.

Protocols for athletics are being developed in accordance with guidance from the NAIA and will take into consideration athletic training, travel and competition. Spectators at all athletic events will follow CDC guidelines for social distancing and capacity.

INTRAMURALS

Intramurals will continue in the fall semester following the guidelines of the CDC.

ATTENDING GAMES

SEU is in the process of determining what fan support will look like this fall in accordance with CDC guidelines.

TAILGATING

SEU community members are welcome to tailgate in designated areas before football games. However, with the current circumstances, all meals must be served by individuals wearing masks and gloves.

POOL & AQUATICS CENTER

The pool is open for on-campus students, staff/faculty and their immediate family members. The pool area is limited to a maximum of 40 people in the area at one time. Social distancing is required between family groups.

Student Athletes

RETURN TO CAMPUS

Student-athletes will arrive on-campus in a phased approach throughout the month of August. Studentathletes will arrive on designated dates so that the university personnel will be able to effectively welcome them to campus. Coaches will provide specific information to each team’s reporting date and expectations surrounding move-in day.

SOCIAL DISTANCING/PHYSICAL SEPARATION

While social distancing is not possible in sports, we have designed a plan within the athletic facilities to space out student-athletes as much as possible. For example, treatment tables and taping stations will be separated by six feet in the training rooms, and we will observe social distancing wherever possible in the Fitness Center.

DISINFECTION AND SANITATION

All athletic facilities will be cleaned daily with approved disinfectants. This includes all shared equipment before and after it is used by a student-athlete. Hand sanitizer stations and fogging machine protocols are being implemented at athletic locations on campus.
