CFL, CFLPA issue joint statement on Air Quality Policy

TORONTO — The Canadian Football League (CFL) and the CFL Players’ Association have jointly released the following statement after a meeting to discuss their Air Quality Policy.

“After a productive meeting, we will maintain our existing Air Quality Policy. We have agreed to engage an independent third party organization to test air quality and provide measurements in real time.

​The decision on whether to play – or to continue playing if a game is in progress – will be based solely on these air quality measurements.

​Any measurement above an Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) reading of 7 will halt play.”
