On Saturday, affiliated fans will be allowed to attend Kansas City Kansas Community College home basketball games and volleyball matches on a limited basis.
“The Jayhawk Conference has voted to allow attendance of up to 25 percent of capacity for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball,” KCKCC Athletic Director Tony Tompkins said.. A policy on KCKCC’s outdoor sports, baseball, softball and soccer, will be forthcoming.
The change goes into effect Saturday when the Lady Blue Devil volleyball team plays host to Neosho County at noon.
Next home basketball action comes Tuesday when KCKCC entertains Metropolitan Community College in a doubleheader at 5:30 and 7:30 p.m.
Spectators will be allowed admission 20 minutes before game time. However, fans from visiting teams will not be admitted.
KCKCC students, faculty and staff must reserve seats by contacting the KCKCC Athletic Department by 2 p.m. for weekday games and before 5 p.m. for weekend contests. There will be 30 seats available for KCKCC students; 20 seats for faculty, staff and Board of Trustee members and IDs will be required.
All students, employees, visitors and vendors will be required to wear a mask or face covering that covers their mouth and nose while in the building. In addition, social distancing will be maintained and enforced. No food or drink will be permitted in any of the KCKCC athletic facilities.
