Colgate Athletics Issues Updated Spectator Policy

Madison County has declared that full vaccination includes proof of a booster shot for those 12 years of age and older. Those who do not have proof of full vaccination must present:

a positive COVID-19 test, dated between 14 and 90 days prior to the start of the event,
a negative PCR test, taken no earlier than 72 hours prior to the start of the event, or
a negative antigen test (at home tests will not be accepted), taken no earlier than 24 hours prior to the start of the event.

Given the different vaccination/booster rollout dates for various age groups, below is a breakdown of attendee requirements based on the spectator's age:

If you are younger than 5 years of age, then you can attend with parent/guardian verification.
