New York governor Andrew Cuomo announced Sunday that effective immediately all professional sports teams in the state can begin training camps while following "appropriate health protocols."
"Starting today, all the New York professional sports leagues will be able to begin training camps (in the state)," Cuomo said Sunday during his daily press briefing. "I believe that sports that can come back without having people in the stadium, without having people in the arena—do it, do it.
Cuomo's decision comes days after he announced that he had alerted major sports teams in the state to plan to reopen their seasons without fans.
