COVID-19

Springs SC has developed the following Return to Play Protocols with input from federal agencies and government entities, member associations, health officials, medical professionals and consultants. This information is specific to our organization and may vary from other protocols you may encounter. The Club reserves the right to modify these protocols as needed.

We must be responsible and practice proper social distancing in an effort to prevent the transmission of COVID-19. These Return to Play Protocols are designed to provide a safe environment for all participants.


PLAYERS – RETURN TO PLAY PROTOCOLS

  • If you are not comfortable with returning to play at this time, you are not required to return. There is no penalty for delaying return to play. All players are welcome to return when they are comfortable. These protocols are in place to outline the manner in which we are making the opportunity available to utilize at YOUR discretion.
  • Wash your hands thoroughly for 20-30 seconds before and after every training session.
  • If you are coughing or sneezing do not participate.
