Spectators at Athletic Contests
FCPS is excited to welcome limited spectators to fall athletic competitions. Admittance to all athletic events is limited to two guests per student-athlete. Please know that some athletic competitions are held off campus, and FCPS will respect and follow all guidelines set forth by those organizations and venues, which may include no spectator policies.
Student-athletes and coaches must complete the spectator invitation form by 10:00pm the night prior to the contest. All guests are strongly encouraged to be family members. This form has been shared with student-athletes by their coach as well as via the fall athlete schoology group.
Invited spectators must provide their name at the entry gate to the game worker for admission.
Individuals not on the guest list will not be permitted entry to the event.
Individuals will not be permitted to watch events from outside of the stadium on campus. Any individuals in these areas will be asked to leave.
Schools will continue to live stream as many athletic contests as possible for those not able to attend athletic contests.
In order to provide the safest environment for all to enjoy the athletic contests, the following protocols are in place.
Face coverings must be properly worn (fully cover mouth and nose) at all times when on school grounds, inside and outside, and at all competitions held off FCPS campuses.
Social distancing must be practiced at all times when on school grounds, inside and outside, and at all competitions held off FCPS campuses.
Please be mindful of proper social distancing while in line to enter the facility
Bleachers in the gym and stadium are marked for spectator seating. The students two family member guests may sit together, but must remain socially distanced from other spectators using the marked seating as the guideline.
Admittance to athletic events will begin 30 minutes prior to the scheduled starting time. Outside food and beverages are prohibited, and concession sales will not be available.
It is FCPS’ hope that everyone will abide by these guidelines and enjoy watching our student-athletes compete in the safest manner possible. Failure to comply with FCPS spectator protocols (including properly wearing face coverings and maintaining social distancing) will result in the suspension of spectator attendance at athletic competitions.
