Bryant announces limited attendance policy for Students. Faculty & Staff
Bryant University Athletics is pleased to announce that a limited number of Bryant students, faculty and staff will be permitted to attend outdoor athletic home events this spring, effective immediately.
Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) guidelines state that only members of the Bryant University community who are part of the institution's testing protocol are allowed to attend these games. As a result, only Bryant University Students, Faculty and Staff will be permitted to attend. Rhode Island State guidelines also stipulate that all spectators must wear a mask and observe social distancing protocols. Bryant Athletics will have seating areas clearly marked for the Bryant community in attendance.
Per RIDOH rules, no parents or external constituents, including family members of students, faculty and staff, will be allowed to attend any games on campus.
Entry for contests will require a valid Bryant University I.D. to swipe at the entrance and the Bryant University Health Checker App.
State of Rhode Island guidelines stipulate that event capacity cannot exceed one person per 125 square feet. Additionally, NCAA protocols state that there shall be a 20-foot buffer zone between spectators and the competition area. Once capacity is reached, gates will be closed.
