How about the night before each practice?

Test them every week if you have to. Life needs to go on. Kids need to be back on campus. COVID19 isn't "novel" anymore, and college students get over it easily. My bet is that the season and the school year go on as previously planned. Things go back to normal within the next three months.

We'll probably see large lecture-based classes go completely online for the lecture component. Students will watch the lectures on their own time, and class time will be focused on interaction/direct instruction. Smaller groups of students will work with TAs/professors to solve problems or dive deeper into specific topics brought up in the lectures during the class time.

Some courses have started migrating to that format already, and it is fairly easy to implement.
