SEC approves on-campus football, basketball workouts to start June 8

The Southeastern Conference chancellors and presidents have voted to allow football and men's and women's basketball players to return to campus for voluntary in-person team activities June 8 at the earliest, the league announced Friday.

Each school must follow a strict set of safety guidelines during what the SEC is calling a transition period to gradually allow athletes back on campus for workouts. The SEC had suspended all on-campus team activities through May 31 in response to the coronavirus pandemic. On Wednesday, the NCAA Division I Council voted to allow football and basketball players to return to campus for voluntary workouts on June 1.
