Due to concerns over COVID-19, the California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA) Board of Directors voted Thursday to immediately postpone practices outside of regularly scheduled classes, and competition for all spring sports, as well as any and all nontraditional sports seasons, indefinitely. As a result, Miramar College will suspend athletics for the remainder of the spring semester.
"It's important that we look out for the well-being of our student-athletes," said Keith Curry, Chair of the Board of Directors.
Jennifer Cardone, CCCAA Interim Executive Director, said the Board of Directors understands the effects this will have on student-athletes and said the CCCAA will be working to minimize those impacts to student-athlete eligibility for the CCCAA as well as the four-year college level.
"We regret the effect this has on our outstanding student-athletes and the hard work and dedication they've invested in their seasons," She said. "However, we feel it's in the best interest of our student-athletes to take this action."
