I hope not.


Yes, if the school facilities are open then fcps must allow permits for community use. That’s my understanding.

Clubs could meet, but they aren’t meeting here. Just because sports will be allowed to go ahead doesn’t mean the district will give the ok.

Schools can open too. They were given the green light before sports.

Just because they can doesn’t mean they will.

Good question. I could see them restricting access now that they are going to have the school athletes in there.


From what I heard rec sports in the FCPS area aren't running because they wouldn't let them in - at least this was true of basketball. Don't know if it will make a difference, but in some ways I find it inconsistent. High school athletes can play for their scholarships, but kids who are currently using outdoor sports as a big part of their in-person socialization and exercise don't get to. Families don't get to decide for themselves if they are comfortable with that risk.


It's a little early to complain about inconsistency. This is a new change. Let things shake out.
