University of Wisconsin football players will be allowed to work out on campus starting Monday, June 8.
The decision, confirmed Tuesday by a UW official, is the first step in getting back on schedule toward a season this fall after the COVID-19 pandemic wiped out spring weight training and practices.
Details on how the workouts will be conducted and how/if players will be tested for the novel coronavirus will be announced later this week, the official said.
The NCAA Division I Council announced on May 21 that football and basketball athletes would be allowed to work out on campuses starting June 1, ending a moratorium on athletic activities in those sports.
