Universities grapple with how to play sports with no student-athletes in attendance Globe_Sports
But what does that mean for the roughly 20,000 student-athletes at U Sport’s 56 schools across Canada?They need to be in the gym and on the field, in physical contact with teammates and opponents, to pursue their sports.
The pivot from Peachland, B.C., says he’s willing to do that to play his fifth and final year of eligibility, and pursue a second straight Vanier Cup. “What if one conference chooses to not go to a national championship, but the other three are going to go?” “It means B.C. schools will be playing each other predominantly in sports like volleyball, basketball and soccer where there’s a large threshold of teams,” Canada West president Clint Hamilton said.“We’ll be limiting air travel as much as possible for hockey and football. To be clear, they are formats for one season. Our intent was to relieve financial pressure on members.
The heads of the Atlantic, Quebec and Ontario conferences say they’re not yet ready to say under what parameters U Sports will happen next season.
