Frontier Conference Releases Their Return To Play 2021-2022 Policy

Frontier Conference Commissioner Kent Paulson announced that the league is committed to return to action in all conference fall sports.

“In what we call our New Normal,” Paulson said. “Our league’s health

professionals, athletic trainers, athletic directors, with the support of our

institution's chancellors and presidents, have drafted guidelines outlining the

lingering issues of Covid-19 and the Delta Variant. These guidelines were

established to keep our coaches, student-athletes, staff and spectators safe as the

Frontier returns to the field and floor of play in 2021-2022.”

The guidelines attempt to individualize rather than standardize as Frontier

Conference members concentrate on identifying and treating the symptomatic

student-athlete ensuring the safety of those affected as well as their teammates.

“We ask all fans to take every precaution in helping to make the competitive

environment as safe as it can be so as to not put neither the home team or visitors

in health danger,” Paulson said. “We look forward to seeing all of our students

and fans back in the stands as we return to athletic competitions in a healthy and

safe environment.”

Frontier Conference officials strongly encourage the league’s student-athletes,

staff and fans to become fully vaccinated to help slow these viruses.
