FREMONT FAMILY YMCA Fall Youth Sports Return to Play Guidelines (Outdoor Sports) REVISED SEPTEMBER 2, 2020
To ensure participant health and safety, as well as the enjoyment of our facilities and programs, we will continue to review and update these guidelines regularly to remain in line with federal, state, and local guidelines. Any updates to guidelines during the season will promptly be communicated.
No one should attend a practice or a game if not feeling well, has a fever, currently under quarantine, or has been in contact with someone with COVID-19 in the last 14 days. Personal health and safety are the responsibility of all players, volunteers, and spectators.
If a positive COVID-19 test is reported to the YMCA, teams impacted will be notified, while keeping the individual’s identity confidential.
Players should wash their hands before and after each practice, especially for sports that contact between players or players handling/touching the same object(s) like a ball, mat, etc.
Coaches are responsible for ensuring social/physical distancing is maintained between players as much as possible. This means additional spacing between players during drills or while waiting to participate.
Face coverings are required by participants, coaches, and parents. Players may remove their masks when playing only.
For the first two weeks of the program, fans will be limited to immediate family only. A determination of expanding the number of fans will be considered before week 3.
Spectators are asked to practice social distancing when possible.
Players should bring their own water bottles and drink containers.
Players should not arrive more than 5 minutes early for practices, as to allow those scheduled before to exit safely.
Parents are asked to either remain in their vehicles during practices or in an open area, to appropriately social distance at all times.
Games will be scheduled with additional transition time to allow time for teams to clear the area and for staff to disinfect equipment. Please do not arrive more than 5 minutes early for games, as not to crowd exiting teams or interfere with staff cleaning.
After the game, there will not be any handshakes, congratulation lines, or parent tunnels. We ask teams to participate in our Sportsmanship gesture by waiving to the other team and shouting “GOOD GAME”.
Avoid having large group team meetings before or after the game. When meeting, practice social distancing.
Post-Game snacks/drinks will be suspended for the time being.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO A SAFE, FUN-FILLED SEASON!
