Don't most of the various scenarios of sports teams playing involve testing in the absence of symptoms to assure players are not infectious?

This is a problem in California, as such testing is the lowest priority, and currently (as I read the statement) would not be offered.
  Updated COVID-19 Testing Guidance

Tier Four Priority
Tier Four would be implemented when the state's testing turnaround time, as monitored by CDPH, is less than 48 hours.

• Other individuals not specified above including: those who are asymptomatic but believe they have a risk for being actively infected as well as routine testing by employers.
  

This updated guidance is intended to support public health officials, health care providers, and laboratories in determining who should be tested given the current context of the COVID-19 pandemic in California.
This guidance should be used for prioritization of patient populations as well as for the purposes of guiding laboratories in managing specimen processing.

It is hard for me to understand when "Guidance" is a recommendation and when it is required.

In light of this, it would seem blatantly wrong for MLB or the PAC-12 to buy testing if California is struggling (as it is now) to get Tier 1 to 3 tests done within 48 hours.  Do any of us think testing should be prioritized for wealthy businesses?
