MLB and Hockey suspend play.

Yesterday, the NCAA announced that the March Madness tournament would be played void of fans. Today, major conferences have announced their end of year tournaments will be canceled. That includes the ACC, Big 10, Pac-12, Big East and SEC. Duke and Kansas have already said that they would not participate in the tournament at all. It sounds like the term it might be canceled in its entirety.

The NBA also announced a suspension play yesterday.

Also just out, MLB are expected to suspend spring-training and potentially delay the beginning of the regular-season.

The National Hockey League has also suspended play for the time being.

This is just a small list of sporting events that have been canceled or postponed as a result of the coronavirus in the US/worldwide. I would expect the trend to continue as the pendulum has swung in the private sector to avoid groups of people getting together. The invisible hand will likely continue either formally or informally to schools and places of worship, concerts, bars, etc.
