If health club gyms are allowed to stay open for us adults, i don't understand why community pools, Rec centers will be shuttered preventing kids from in engaging in any sort of exercise.

Percentage limitations based on capacity make more sense to me.


Problem is how they cluster in those spaces. Basketball gym may be huge, but those 10 players on the court aren't safe, nor their coaches and teammates on the sidelines. In some ways swim now feels safer with news out that perhaps humidity lowers the likelihood of transmission in addition to all the social distancing measures that USA Swimming has put in place, but my son is expecting to hear that his season is over.


I really can't stand how everone gets on here talking about how their activity is safe and they should get to carry on if everyone else would just stop doing their activities.

The all powerful Fauci continues to say we should be outside and in big spaces, like sports, and yet our elected officials continue to want to force everyone inside.

Wake up people.


What are you prattling on about now?

You can have way more than 25 people at a bar, indoor restaurant, daycare (or church?) but not more than 25 people at a sports event? Makes no sense

Bummer. But I don't see how any sport continues unless GREATLY modified. Our U14 team players (and not all coaches and no spectators included) is at or about 25 people right there.

Of course. Why would it not?

I imagine the high school winter season will be canceled in short order.

Does this apply to sports?
