NSSAF COVID UPDATE – September 28, 2020
The NSSAF Board of Governors has approved a framework for Fall Sports. As of October 1, 2020 the grouping size moves from 10 to 50 which will allow the NSSAF to offer additional sports this fall.
For updates, please go to the COVID page on the NSSAF website and to the sport specific pages on the website for updates.
Sports will have to be conducted differently this fall in compliance with COVID 19 restrictions. The plan for Fall sports reflects COVID mitigations instituted by Regional Centres and the NSSAF Board of Governors. These mitigations include:
– No overnight travel
– Minimize travel, where appropriate teams meet at neutral site
– No Provincial Tournaments in Team Sports
To accommodate the guidelines above the following changes will be implemented for the Fall Sports:
Team Sports: (Baseball, Soccer, and Volleyball) Four Regional Champions will advance to a provincial semi final with winners playing in a provincial championship. The sites of the Semi Finals and Finals will be determined with the two schools involved and the NSSAF.
Individual Sports: (Golf and Cross Country). Top four individual finishers in each category will advance to a provincial final. No provincial Team Championships for 2020.
