NJSIAA thanks Rutgers University for their continued hospitality and we look forward to future events on campus. All single game ticket purchases, as well as third party ticketed events, will be refunded by the Rutgers Athletics Ticket Office. The Ticket Office will be contacting all accounts that purchased tickets once refunds are processed.

 

NJSIAA continues to rely on directives from state, county, and local public health officials as well as the New Jersey Department of Education. All NJSIAA events will continue to follow guidelines established by the CDC as they relate to mass gatherings and large community events.

We continue to ask everyone to follow the prevention guidelines distributed by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Individuals with symptoms that include fever, cough, and shortness of breath should stay home, while travelers returning from affected international locations should follow CDC guidance related to travel.

Please continue to monitor NJSIAA’s website and social media platforms for potential updates.
