NPS COVID-19 Communications Protocol

Due to rising COVID-19 cases in communities belonging to our league, several games are canceled at this time. We do not have control over these decisions and we have to keep our safety protocols without mixing teams and communities each week. Our students and coaches will keep practicing during this time developing skills for the future.

We are following the advice of our nurses and the Health Department to keep our students and our community healthy.

If you have questions regarding the NPS-Covid communications protocol please review it online. The protocol is posted on the athletic page under Announcements. You can also reach out to our school nurses if you need clarification on the policy.
