TRENTON – Under Executive Order No. 148, Gov. Phil Murphy announced May 26 that professional sports teams that train or play in New Jersey are allowed to practice and engage in games or matches if their leagues resume competition.
“Our administration has been in constant discussions with our professional sports teams about a modified return to operations,” stated Murphy. “While leagues make their own decisions about operations, I am confident that teams are equipped to practice and eventually play in a responsible manner, protecting the health and safety of players, coaches, and team personnel.”
According to a release, the order, issued May 22, explicitly allowed professional athletes who train and/or play in New Jersey to fulfill their job duties. It allows for teams to utilize their New Jersey-based facilities for practice, training, and other purposes where team personnel have to be on location and cannot work remotely.
Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
