FAYETTEVILLE — Requiring fans to wear masks and enter the stadium without paper tickets are among the University of Arkansas’ considerations in preparing for the upcoming football season, UA athletics director Hunter Yurachek told UA trustees Wednesday.
Yurachek said his department is working with Arkansas Department of Health, the university’s environmental health department and has received guidance from a group of UAMS professors in helping shape guidelines for sporting events.
“We’re planning right now for full capacity,” Yurachek said of the Razorbacks’ home football games, “but also making plans for if that’s a half or a third (capacity), based on some guidance we receive as this continues to evolve.
