This year has been like any other due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and that includes the sports season. When the pandemic hit in March, sporting events around the world were canceled or postponed. Some leagues and tournaments were forced to cancel, others paused with the hope of restarting, but all had to adjust in some way.

As countries and states open back up, many leagues that paused created a plan to restart and those that did not start yet began organizing a safe way to carry out their season.

“Bubbles” have been created for players to live, fans were not permitted at many events and new health protocols were in place for athletes.
