Due to the ongoing concerns related to COVID-19, we continue to monitor national/state/local guidelines, as well as health organization reports, including updates from the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and others.

Event guidelines will vary by location and date, as state and local governments will issue their own guidelines and the guidelines will be revised as circumstances change.  Event practices and protocols will be updated as such changes occur.

  • Games will be scheduled every 70-80 minutes to better manage entry and exit into facility and to allow additional time for facility cleaning under the facility’s cleaning protocol.

  • Bigfoot Hoops will coordinate with each facility as to facility’s maintenance plan and schedule, pre event and during the event.
