Yeah, and from experience I can tell you it’s a double standard for officials and players/coaches wearing their masks properly. Players wear them like chin straps and nobody bats an eye, but when officials do that they get turned in. Exactly the reason I told my high school assigner I won’t be officiating in a mask this year and that if he wants to use me, I will only go to schools without such mandates.
Fortunately none of my college leagues are requiring masks this year although there is one league where we are supposed to put them on when not actively officiating (it’s laughably stupid that I have to pull my gaiter up during a timeout when I’m 25 feet away from the team huddle).
It’s totally theatrical most of these restrictions.
