Finals matches will take place virtually by default. Finals matches that are broadcast are subject to unique dates and start times that supersede the general schedule. Certain state leagues will have a single in-person live event to close their postseason.
Teams attending an in-person live event final should refer to the venue’s website and emails from their association regarding guidelines while attending.
