Executive Order 21-11 will begin Monday, March 15, 2021, at 12 p.m. (noon) and does not have an end date. Information below reflects relevant guidelines outlined in the Executive Order. HURT will adhere to those specific guides mentioned below.

The decision to participate in sports does not mean engaging in sports is without risk. Any time you gather with other people, you are putting yourself and others at risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. COVID-19 can lead to serious medical conditions and even death for people of all ages.

• face coverings will be required for all practices and games.

• Maintain at least 6 feet between participants when they are not playing (on the bench, in the dugout, on the sideline, etc.).

• Maintain 6 feet between spectators or household groups.

• Spectators must remain at least 12 feet away from the closest participant—meaning, at least 12 feet from the field, the bench, or the court, whichever is closest.

• Practices (non-game or competition activities) will have pods that do not exceed 25 people indoors or 50 people outdoors per pod.

MN Ultimate is planning to have a spring season. Below are some highlights from an email we received regarding this spring:

1. We are planning on a spring season. Much of the specifics are understandably TBD, but we want it to happen, hope it can, and think there is a good possibility it will. The staff, high school and youth committees, and board of directors have been meeting and discussing the 2021 spring season for several months now. No one can predict what April and May will be like in Minnesota. Of course we are hopeful the risk isn't too great to prevent a close-to-normal-season, but we know that is a real possibility. We've spent a lot of time considering how to structure a season that gives us the greatest flexibility and chance to succeed.
2. We hope to start the season at the same time, just make it 12 weeks long, instead of the normal nine weeks. So instead of the last week of league games being the week of May 24th, it would be the week of June 14th. Of course that means that if a state championship event is possible, we would target the weekend of June 26th and 27th.
3. The specifics of the season structure will be developed over the coming months and will be shared with the community when appropriate and fully developed. There will also be some opportunity for input. But any questions about conference playoffs or competition modifications will be met with a "We're not exactly sure right now and ask for your patience," response. Of course what is an acceptable amount of risk, and therefore possible, in May may not be known until...well, May.
