NJCAA football, men’s and women’s soccer, and volleyball will flip seasons to the spring, while cross country will remain in the fall.
All winter sports will begin in January, including men’s and women’s basketball. The majority of championships will be moved from March to April, while indoor track and field championships will be held at the beginning of March.
The spring sports season was tweaked the least, as minor adjustments were changed to dates, including baseball, softball, men’s and women’s golf, and track & field.
