UW-Stout Home Spectator Policy for Spring Sports

WIAC Spring Spectator Policy | UW-Stout COVID-19 Planning & Preparedness

MENOMONIE (May 17, 2021) - This policy was created to govern spectator attendance in accordance with state and local health and safety guidelines and our campus visitor policy with regards to our facilities.
 
• Each student-athlete competing is limited to two guests at each contest who are legally or emotionally related to them.
 
• Remain socially distanced AT ALL times from those outside your household.
 
• Maintain extended distance from student-athletes at all times including team bench areas, etc.
 
• Tailgating is strictly prohibited.
 
No pets of any kind allowed – per WIAC and UW-Stout policy.
 
• Spectators are to depart the facility area as soon as the contest is over and will NOT be permitted to meet with any student-athletes at the athletic facility.
 
• It is strongly suggested that spectators limit interactions with those outside of their household while outside of a competition venue to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
 
• The number of fans is very limited so be aware that your voice will carry. All comments must be respectful and in support of your student-athlete and their team.
 
•  Providing team food is allowed only if the following steps are followed:

• Must receive prior approval from your team's head coach
• Deliver food to designated area located away from the team dugout
• Food provided must be individually pre-packaged items

 
• Bleacher seating is very limited; there will be designated spaces for both home and visitor spectators.
 
• We highly encourage everyone to bring bag chairs to spread out and maintain safe social distancing.
 
This policy can and will be changed if these policies are not followed.
