Practice Practice Practice will begin at 3:45pm. Please know that any student-athlete using BSD Transportation will not be penalized if they arrive late to practice. BSD Transportation will be using the same routes for after school activities as they have done in the past. Those stops can be found by clicking on the Bus Stops tab on our sports website. We can only hold 23 students on a bus. So, it could be that the bus approaches the stop and has to continue on to the school. The bus will return to the stop and pick up any remaining students. Transportation will attempt to have a trailer bus when possible. I would encourage students to find their own transportation to and from school if possible. There will be no use of lockers. We will be disinfecting shoulder pads and helmets each night in the small gym Student-athletes must bring their own water and can t share their water with any other student-athlete.
Practice Practice Student-athletes must wear a mask the entire time on school property and practice. Coaches will be stopping practice every 20 minutes for water breaks. Student-athletes will socially distance, take off their mask, and get a water break. Student-athletes are responsible for bringing their own mask. The mask must cover the student-athlete s mouth, nose, and hook to the back of the ears. Student-athletes are required to take home their equipment and disinfect it every night/day. Student-athletes should take a shower as soon as they get home.
Day to Day Operations COVID-19 Check In All athletes and coaches will be Required to complete a COVID agreement survey This is done via a qr-code or link All responses are achieved in google forms The head coach will be responsible for administering or delegating the task of having each athlete go through the COVID-19 check in which involves: Taking the athletes temperature every day Having all athletes and coaches complete a daily Health screening survey NOTE: this survey is available via a link and a qr-code for athletes to access via their phones or computers All daily responses are achieved in google forms Hard copies of this form is available in case technical difficulties arise
Day to Day Operations If any athlete or coach is found to have a temperature of 100.4 or higher they will be asked isolate in the shade for 10 minutes to cool off. A second reading will take place after the 10 minutes are up. If the reading continues to be over 100.4 then the athlete will be asked to leave the premises immediately and return home. If a ride is not immediately available, individuals with a temperature will be asked to quarantine in a designated area away for the team until someone is able to come to pick them up. If any athlete or coach answers yes to any one of the 4 questions asked on the COVID screening sheet they will also be asked to immediately leave the premises and go home. If a ride is not immediately available, the individual will be asked to quarantine in a designated area away for the team until someone is able to come to pick them up. This applies to both coaches and players. Any players sent home must produce a negative test result from a qualified health professional before being permitted to return to practice or competition. Any player testing positive must quarantine for 14 days and produce a negative COVID test result by a qualified health professional before being permitted to return to practice or competition. The BHC is working on developing universal guidelines to follow for when multiple players test positive or when an opposing team member tests positive.
Exiting Practice All coaches and athletes should sanitize their hands upon leaving practice Drop equipment off in the small gym to be disinfected overnight Equipment will be socially distanced in the gym Custodial staff will wipe down all hard surfaces Athletes are to social distance while waiting in line to board the bus Athletes will social distance while sitting on the bus (one to a seat / every other seat) Masks must be worn while riding the bus
Games Games The BSD will permit 2 parent/guardian/siblings into the games per student-athlete. We are requiring all spectators to comply with all DPH guidelines and school plans for us to play games. No tickets will be given out. A guest list will be generated. ID must be shown to get in. Masks must be worn at all times. Spectators must be socially distance.
