There’s some news on the interstate competition front, per Lamont.

[Shawn McFarland @McFarland_Shawn]

We've got updated sports sector guidelines from the DECD. High risk sports are prohibited, in-person road races are postponed, and everyone is wearing masks.

Full breakdown: https://t.co/4FLKyvVQUx

Confirmed that these do apply to youth sports in addition to CIAC sports.

[GametimeCT @GametimeCT]

Updated DPH guidance allows for CIAC winter sports to begin practice on Jan. 19, games as early as Feb. 1. But no #ctwr, competitive cheer or dance due to high-risk category. #ctbb #ctgb #cthk #ctgym #cttrack https://t.co/EGBQJUhlBL

@GovNedLamont As small business owners, we urge you to #endthepause on team sports on Jan 19 as planned. We ask to be able to train in our own gym with our teams (more than 4 athletes!), as we've proven we can do so safely. Please see our full letter here: https://t.co/A2nLN3O4Qe

@GovNedLamont Thank you for the update, but we really need the DECD guidelines for youth and club sports to be posted ASAP! Shutting down small businesses in this sector with 3 days notice and no real guidance or rules about what we can and can’t do yet...

@hartfordcourant Would love to see more data. If an athlete gets infected by a teammate at a social gathering (outside of team activities), is that counted as an sports-related outbreak?

[Northeast Volleyball Club @northeastvbc]

@McFarland_Shawn Still no guidance from the DECD - hoping they don’t leave small businesses in the dark much longer.

@McFarland_Shawn Would love to see where Lamont’s data came from. We’ve had hundreds of athletes play in our gym safely with 0 cases traced back to NEVBC since June. Devastating news.
