The MTSD will follow the guidelines and procedures set by the NJSIAA in accordance with the NJSIAA Medical Advisory Task Force and the NFHS Return to Play Guidelines. This includes medical and administrative requirements, face coverings, screenings, hygiene, player groupings, and social distancing.

At this point, the NJSIAA is prepared to proceed with Model 1 – Delayed Fall Season, as outlined below. This plan is designed to give school administrators time to safely reopen schools and to begin planning for a fall sports season. The NJSIAA recognizes the fluidity of the COVID-19 pandemic and realizes that conditions are changing regularly. Any decision to move away from Model 1 – Delayed Fall Season will be made by the NJSIAA no later than August 28th.
