Well pretty much guaranteed that college coaches won't be at any June events. D1 is in a dead period now until June 30th. D2 is in a quiet period until June 30th. These may change according to NCAA. Will be reviewed on May 27 to see if extension beyond June 30 is needed.

North Texas and the Lonestar regions do. As of now tryouts are still scheduled. Michigan also holds tryouts in July Only the east side of the state does, the west side waits until after high school season is done for tryouts.

It really is too bad they stopped producing them. This could be a game changer (literally) at clubs and tourneys. I have a small UV light wand that I use when I travel. I imagine that clubs could purchase larger UV devices to sanitize the balls.

The head of the DHS Science and Technology Directorate presented that both temperature and exposure to UV light drastically reduce the half-life of the virus. For example, summer sunlight changes the halflife (in aerosol form) from 60 minutes to 1.5 minutes. He starts his presentation right at 20 minutes:

Hahaha. And I believe everything anybody tells me too. I mean Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, etc. The earth is flat, the holocaust never happened, we never landed on the moon. Haha. We are are all brainless sheep. Does he give references? We live in a world now where we can say anything. Not sure if 2+2=4. Haha. This made my day. Thank you.

So they did a study and presented the results of that study and you just choose not to believe it for what reason? I thought we were supposed to trust the experts?

That would probably not get you a 'C' for a grade school science project. You are not an expert with 1 study.

Instead of using a million wipes for the balls just have a bunch of extra balls on hand. Swap them out between games and wash them at a central station. This is a great idea. And disinfecting items does not have to relegated to simply bleach like products. Ozone and UV lights are frequently deployed in settings where one cannot wipe down every surface. If it doesn't exist already someone should work on a disinfecting cabinet utilizing one or both of these methods. You could swap sets of balls out, not sure what the processing time would be and that might be a hurdle but it's something to think on. In fact I think ozone can possibly be diluted with water (in chemical form) and may be safer for surfaces than bleach wipes. I wonder if that would be a viable alternative to the oxidative stress that bleach creates on anything it contacts. ^ certainly an awesome solution. I was thinking more in terms of a standing cabinet but it looks like a flat tray like surface with raised sides is a great idea as well.

I thought we were supposed to trust the experts? www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/disinfecting-building-facility.html?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fcoronavirus%2F2019-ncov%2Fprepare%2Fdisinfecting-building-facility.htmlwww.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/list-n-disinfectants-use-against-sars-cov-2Neither CDC or WHO list UV as approved sanitation method for Covid 19. Also interesting that CDC recommends closing off all areas an infected person contacted and waiting up to 24 hours before cleaning. That will be fun at AAU or USAV, as both have indicated they will follow CDC recommendations. Cleaning and disinfecting your building or facility if someone is sick Close off areas used by the person who is sick. Companies do not necessarily need to close operations, if they can close off affected areas. Open outside doors and windows to increase air circulation in the area. Wait 24 hours before you clean or disinfect. If 24 hours is not feasible, wait as long as possible. Clean and disinfect all areas used by the person who is sick, such as offices, bathrooms, common areas, shared electronic equipment like tablets, touch screens, keyboards, remote controls, and ATM machines.

SARS was successfully eradicated utilizing ozone type gas treatment during the 2003 epidemic: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3312702/As SARS COVID 19 is also a member of that same viral family, in fact sharing some similar attributes with the aforementioned SARS, it is safe to assume that ozonation could be effective. _ _ _ _ UV light, specifically the UV-C spectrum, is very effective in "scrambling" the DNA and RNA of bacteria and viruses because UV light is a high frequency waveform. The NIH did a study on the 222 nm spectrum of light and its' efficacy in deactivating viruses and killing off bacteria: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5552051/There is no causal evidence to support that these processes would not be effective in deactivating coronavirus. Perhaps not proven as yet but it's just a matter of time.

Perhaps not proven as yet but it's just a matter of time. "Safe to assume that _______ could be effective..." "...no evidence that these processes would not be effective..." This seems like a lot of words that say almost nothing. Is this the kind of "science" that people base their decisions on?

People base decisions on the current understandings. What else is there?

I feel like I'm reading a rejected script of Dr. House.
