COVID-19 SAFETY PLAN
All participants are required to wear masks, when social distance cannot be guaranteed. Any person with a positive COVID-19 test, and/or in close contact with a confirmed or suspected COVID-19 individual in the past 5 days should stay home. Any person feeling unwell, or with elevated temperature should not attend games.
– Individuals must wear face coverings, unless unable to medically tolerate such a covering for the physical activity. Coaches and/or other individuals who are not directly engaged in activity are required to wear face coverings.
– Teams agree to limit congregation once games conclude. All participants must leave the field of play immediately and remain distanced from incoming teams, whilst ensuring proper disposal of face coverings and PPE. All trash and recyclables must be removed from Parks property.
– The league will continue the policy of temperature checks and use of hand sanitizer before games. A no throw-in rule is currently implemented. This is intended to minimize touching of shared surfaces. Restarts are taken with a short pass below shoulder height.
How to protect yourself and others. CDC Covid prevention actions.
HYGIENE
Alcohol based hand sanitizer will be provided where hand washing is not feasible. Limit the sharing of objects. When in contact with shared surfaces wear gloves, sanitize and/or wash hands before and after contact.
TEST AND TRACE
To aid in test and trace efforts, teams agree to do the following: Maintain a record of participants and their contact information, and provide this to league organizers on request. If an attendee tests positive for COVID-19 within 10 days of a game; the team captain should inform the organizers immediately and cooperate with all contact tracing efforts; including notification of the NYC Health Department and Test and Trace. This is so teams, and any individual potentially in close contact can be notified. Privacy and confidentiality will be upheld as required by state and federal law and regulations.
HEALTH SCREENING
Prior to the event, employees and participants must notify the organization of: (1) COVID- 19 symptoms in past 10 days, (2) positive COVID-19 test in past 10 days, and/or (3) close contact with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 case in past 14 days. Responses must be reviewed and documented. Prohibit any employee/player experiencing COVID-19 symptoms to enter the activity space.
The league appreciates your cooperation and support of the covid-19 safety plan and efforts to stay safe and healthy.
