BOULDER, Colo. — University of Colorado at Boulder (CU) will open its four main athletic facilities at 100 percent capacity this fall.
Folsom Field, the CU Events Center, Prentup Field and the tennis complex on the South Campus will open fully for events starting with the new athletic year in August, CU Athletic Director Rick George announced Monday.
CU said it will adhere to county regulations that have yet to be finalized regarding the wearing of masks and/or proof of vaccination.
“All of us, the student-athletes, coaches and staff are looking forward to welcoming back our fans to every one of our venues after playing before mostly empty seats last year,” George said.
