I know a few athletes at a major NCAA university that had an all fall sports teams call this afternoon. The athletic department said groups of 5 can practice together and that these 5 need be consistent all fall. Also that all returning to campus athletes must quarantine for 7 or 10d (can't remember) before they are allowed to join in any practice.

Now I really don't follow sports but it seems that real football sports like soccer & rugby have >5 on the field at a time and that fake football has 11 per side on the field.

How do you divvy that up? Goalie, center, striker, maybe 2 strikers and a forward? Guard, Center, QB, RB & receiver or maybe no RB & 2 receivers?

On defense do you go with a 0, two 4 techniques and two safeties? (that's what I'd do bc the 4 techniques can slide into the 3 or out depending on what offense does although 5 v 11 hardly seems fair)

I think what this university said is long live basketball & XC & beach volleyball (wait is that an NCAA sport?), screw you other mass people fall sports but in more words!

I don't think it bodes well for fall NCAA sports that have large amounts of people together at a time.
