PBA submits stricter guidelines to IATF for team practices

The PBA Board of Governors met in person on Wednesday to discuss safety protocols for resuming league activities amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The board approved proposed guidelines that are stricter than FIBA's rules, allowing only six people (four players, one trainer, and another staff member) to practice at a time.

PBA Chairman Ricky Vargas said the league will submit these protocols to the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) as early as Thursday, hoping for approval to allow teams to conduct practices.
