Safety protocols:
Off-court (my practices)
- a mask is worn whenever present in public spaces
- regular daily temperature checks completed
- awareness and avoidance of any local hotspots of virus spread
On-court (all parties)
- initial temperature checks of participant(s) and coach
- hand sanitizer usage after each drill or activity and at end of lesson
- separate ball pick-up baskets tagged for each participant
- baskets sanitized with antibacterial wipes
- social distancing in effect for all activities
- most activities are facilitated on opposite sides of the net
- masks are NOT worn on-court (by either player or coach) as they restrict the breathing of any participant who will accelerate their breathing upon exertion
- no fist bumps, high fives or elbow rubs; only verbal cues and spoken praise
- participants are recommended to keep their hands away from their face at all times
- players provide their own racket and beverage
The spread of Covid-19 has been shown to have very limited spreading potential when socially distanced, in an outside environment, and in warmer, sunnier weather.
