Based on the recent announcement regarding the wearing of face masks at outdoor events, the following guidelines will be in place for those events overseen by the Maine Principals’ Association. Please know that these recommendations fully align with the Maine Community Sport Guidelines that have been updated.
- Masks are not required for outdoor practices and competitions. Masks are recommended when 6 feet of physical distance is hard to maintain (e.g., athletes on the bench). They are also required when individuals go inside (e.g., to locker rooms, rest rooms, or on a bus).
- Spectators are not required to wear a mask at outside events if they are able to maintain 6 feet of distancing.
