COVID-19 GUIDELINES
Greater Cleveland Lacrosse and NC Soccer Club of Hudson are working hard to deter the spread of Covid-19. To this extent, we will be following CDC and Summit County Board of Health guidelines in regards to returning to play.
The following guidelines will be followed by the GCL Fall Box League:
1. Players should stay home if they are showing symptoms of Covid-19.
2. Spectators will be permitted at the sessions (with restrictions….more information TBD).
3. Players will check in each week & will be asked if they are displaying any Covid-19 symptoms, have been around anyone having Covid-19 symptoms, or are feeling sick. If the answers to these questions are yes, players will be asked to leave the facility, and not participate in the session.
4. Social distancing will be monitored on the sidelines by relocating team benches to opposite sides of the field or spread out along the bench areas.
5. Players must wear masks into and out of the facility. No congregating of players is permitted.
6. Players need to supply their own water, equipment (exception of goalie upper and lower pads), and must wear a league jersey each session (contact tracing purposes).
7. Before and after play, all players should wash their hands with soap and water or use a hand sanitizer.
