Face Coverings: Based on the MDHHS Emergency Order of October 5th, there will be no change to the face covering requirements as outlined in MHSAA guidance to schools issued on September 10th and 30th. Face coverings continue to be required of fall athletes in football, soccer and volleyball. Face coverings continue to be required for officials when not involved in active officiating which includes arrival at the site, pregame duties, timeouts, intermissions, extended stoppages in play and any postgame responsibilities while still onsite. The face covering requirement for everyone else present including coaches, trainers, managers, media members, game administration and spectators also remains unchanged. Remember that social distancing MUST be followed at all times for everyone except athletes and officials involved in active participation during the contest. We also ask that if guests can answer yes to any of the following questions, that you do not attend the athletic event.
#1. Do you have a cough?
#2. Do you have a sore throat?
#3. Do you have shortness of breath?
#4. Do you have an elevated temperature?
Audience Attendance: Effective with today’s MHSAA guidance (10/06), our district will immediately implement the 30% outdoor spectator capacity limits for football (Lakers-500) and 20% indoor spectator capacity for Volleyball (Lakers-300).
- We will still honor the policy that all Laker participants get two tickets for an event. All other tickets will be split 50/50 with our opponents. Any tickets that are left will be available on a first come first serve basis in the main high school office. (We may pre-release some tickets for larger events) When you arrive at the game, please have the ticket and $5.00, (unless payment was made previously). Exact change would be appreciated! All attendees will still need to wear a mask and should socially distance by sitting with household/family members.
- Laker Students with a ticket will still be able to attend home events for free!
Please pay close attention to upcoming announcements, as each school and event may look different! Thank you in advance for all of your patience and flexibility. We are hoping for better days ahead!!!
Go Green,
Stephen VerBurg, Laker AD
