In a series of tweets this week, NYSPHSAA Executive Director Dr. Robert Zayas said he was preparing for guidance from Gov. Cuomo regarding fall sports.

On Wednesday he said, “Governor Cuomo just stated guidance on high school sports to come out next week. Looking forward to continuing our discussions to ensure student athlete safety is paramount.”

On Thursday he added, “Preparing for guidance from @NYGovCuomo, @NYSPHSAA will utilize the following timeline once guidance is released: 1) within 24 hrs, Section Directors & Officers will meet, 2) within 48 hrs, COVID Task Force will meet, 3) within 72 hrs, Officers will make a decision “IF” needed.”

In an email to Section directors he also wrote, “As soon as the guidance is released, there will be a desire for immediate answers; utilizing a defined plan in advance, will help us to make decisions and provide recommendations that are beneficial for all student-athletes, schools and Sections.”

Section XI  will post more info once it becomes available.
