For example, there is the value versus the cost of bringing sports back. Some teams require fewer players and therefore could possibly be brought back sooner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have to look at what sports are still being played in the conference,\u201d said Giambrone.\u00a0 \u201cSinclair is a member of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.occac.org\/landing\/index\">OCCAC<\/a> (Ohio Community College Athletic Conference). Maybe that helps us decide what sports get brought back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Board of Directors will certainly have a lot to discuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen and if sports come back they will follow strict safety guidelines and protocols outlined by the college,\u201d said Giambrone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students will have to wait and see what happens with Sinclair\u2019s sports program.
