The NCAA already decided to cancel college athletics for the spring before the CDC put out its guidelines Sunday. Examples of large events and mass gatherings include conferences, festivals, parades, concerts, sporting events, weddings and other types of assemblies. These events can be planned not only by organizations and communities, but also by individuals,” the CDC said in a statement. MLB's Opening Day was slated for next week, but the league shut down spring training operations and sent players home. NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said last week the goal is to resume play at the earliest chance.
