Teams will be limited to 45 people for their travel party.

There are two pathways for people to return after testing positive for COVID-19: there must be 10 days between the first positive test, or they must have two negative PCR tests 24 hours apart. 

Teams will be allowed to pay for player housing during isolation periods.
