COVID-19 Protocol

Age Group Notes/Highlights:

Stay home if sick.

Players should bring their own balls.

· No parents or guardians on the field, unless they are helping with their children. In this case, they must wear a mask.

· No high fives or handshakes with coaches

· No sharing of balls or cones with hands.

· No sharing of water

· We recommend bringing hand sanitizer to every class.

· Masks are optional for players when participating along as they are with a parent.

· Coaches will be wearing masks when 10 feet isn't possible

· Players should approach the coaches upon arrival and will place their bags on a designated cone, in the middle of the field or where appropriate.

· Players can pass, dribble, juggle after arriving. Coaches will help guide them with appropriate pre-practice activities if they are early.

Sibling participation is not allowed unless they are both registered for the program.
Make sure your child attends with plenty of water that is clearly labeled with their name as water fountain usage is highly discouraged.
You should wear plenty of sunscreen and/or bug spray as classes are outdoors and this will not be provided by staff nor administered by staff.
Maintain a safe social distance among students of at least 10 feet.

We recognize that some players are going to be very excited to see other children. However, we ask that at this point, close contact be avoided, even during down times at practice. The coaches will mention this, but prior conversations from parents are appreciated.
