Covid-19 Update to Parents:
Dear Parents,
First and foremost, we hope that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy. We have received questions from the community about if and how COVID-19 will change this year’s athletic season. We know this outbreak has been stressful to many and recognize that exercising and participating in activities like sports can be a healthy way to cope with stress and connect with our community. After careful thought and planning, we are excited to let you know that we plan to resume youth sports while following CDC considerations to protect players, families, and our community.
The health and safety of our athletes, staff, and volunteers remain our highest priority! Below, you will find a summary of actions we are taking to help ensure we are lowering COVID-19 risk as much as possible while also allowing our athletes to play. We are:
- Intensifying cleaning and disinfection by disinfecting equipment between use as feasible.
- Reducing physical closeness or contact between players when possible such as allowing players to focus on building individual skills keeping children in small groups, and staggering arrival and drop off times when feasible, putting signs and using cones and lines on fields to designate that coaches and players stay 6 feet apart, discouraging unnecessary physical contact, such as high fives, handshakes, fist bumps, and hugs and replacing these with a modified cheer.
- Postponing travel outside of our local community
- Promoting healthy hygiene practices such as hand sanitizer before and after practices and games, encouraging children to cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or to use the inside of their elbow, and reminding them to not spit.
- Masks: Requesting that coaches, officials, and parents wear a cloth face covering at all times. If you choose to not wear a mask you may not attend PARPC functions. Athletes must also wear a mask entering and exiting the softball field until returned to their cars. During practice and games- the batter is NOT required to wear a mask for vision purposes, the catcher and umpire must wear a mask, outfielders may remove their mask while on the field but masks must be worn in the dugout. When a team is playing defense, infielders do not need to wear a face mask unless a baserunner reaches a base nearest their position, then a face covering will be required and when returning to the dugout. The pitcher does not need to wear a mask until returned to the dugout. Please be prepared with extra face coverings. As a reminder, cloth face coverings should not be placed on young children younger than 2 years of age, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the cover without assistance.
- Limiting the sharing of equipment.
- Spectators: At practices and games we can allow SIX spectators per athlete wearing masks and social distancing 6 feet apart and from the softball field, but guidelines can change so you should be prepared for this.
Be on the lookout for symptoms of COVID-19, which include fever, cough, or shortness of breath. Call your doctor if you think you or a family member is sick. Return back to sports from home isolation is found at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/end-home-isolation.html
