Davidson College To Require COVID Vaccines For Basketball Games

DAVIDSON, NC — Davidson College will require spectators attending men's and women's basketball games to show proof of a COVID-19 vaccination beginning Jan. 8, according to the college.

This applies to all games in the John M. Belk Arena.

Those 12 and older must be fully vaccinated, while children between ages 5-11 will be required to provide proof of at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

To meet the requirement, spectators must present their COVID-19 vaccination card or digital copy along with a photo ID.

Faculty, staff and students can show their College ID as proof due to the college's vaccination policy. Davidson College's indoor mask mandate will remain in effect.

Spectators are encouraged to arrive early in order to allow additional time for verification and entry. Fans who haven't already done so are encouraged to download the CLEAR Pass app (for all states) on your smartphones to facilitate entry to games.
