COVID-19 Precautions for Optional Preseason Practices

COVID-19 Safety Precautions are in effect for all 2021 Optional Preseason Practices & Open Gyms. These precautions must be followed by all in attendance. Any person unwilling to adhere to these policies is not allowed to attend.

1. All players and volunteers must wear a mask covering their mouth and nose at all times - even when actively participating in softball activities.
2. Players and volunteers should maintain social distancing of at least six (6) feet at all times unless closer spacing is required for softball activities. Time spent within six (6) feet of other people should be kept to a minimum.
3. Players and volunteers should bring their own water bottles for use during the Optional Preseason Practices. Use of drinking fountains is being discouraged and sharing of water between people is prohibited.
4. Parents/guardians are allowed to attend during the Optional Preseason Practices. If attending the Optional Preseason Practices, parents/guardians must stay on the side of the gym next to the bleachers closest to the main doors, maintain six (6) feet of social distancing from other parents/guardians, and wear a mask at all times. To promote social distancing and decrease the chance of COVID 19/other illness transmission, parents/guardians are encouraged to wait in their vehicles during Optional Preseason Practices or leave and return at the end of the practice time.
5. Players and volunteers should wash their hands or use hand sanitizer prior to entering the gym for the Optional Preseason Practice. 

COVID-19 Safety Precautions are required for all in attendance. If you are unable to follow these precautions, you are not allowed to attend.

Players must also submit a waiver prior to attending their first Optional Preseason Practice of the year. For more information and to complete the waiver, visit www.portageyouthsoftball.org/preseason.
