We hope everyone is well.
To avoid any issues for the entire league, we are going to be tracking attendance for practice and games. Please, let your coach know if your child will not be able to make practice or a game or simply deny the RSVP e-mail.
To help limit the amount of contact teams will have on days other than game day, please have the kids enter the field ONLY after the previous team has exited. Parents DO NOT enter the field of play unless instructed to do so or absolutely necessary....
The COVID waiver needs to be filled out and brought to the 1st practice and given to your coach or BHSA rep. It is located under the DOCUMENTS TAB
Please have your child bring their own ball clearly marked with name, a white T-Shirt clearly labelled with your name (we will not be using pinnies), and a water bottle that is clearly marked with their name on it. Please make sure to have kids pick up after themselves, it is not the job of the coach or the city to be picking up empty water bottles.... Any items left behind will be thrown out.....
We are encouraging players not to bring a bag to practices and games, if it's a must please make sure the bag is labelled and spaced apart.
If your player is not feeling well for ANY reason DO NOT attend practice or game
We are limiting attendance to only 2 ADULT SPECTATORS per registered player. Masks are a must regardless of social distancing. There are to be ABSOLUTELY NO SPECTATORS sitting or standing within 30 feet of the coaches and players during a game, if this is the case the game will NOT be played....
Throw ins will no longer be allowed, kick ins will be used
DIV 1 9v9 MAX
DIV 2 7v7 MAX
DIV 3 5v5 MAX (NO GOALIE)
No more high fives after the game is done, alternate methods of showing good sportmanship will be utilized
We are playing a shortened season, since the season is starting much later than usual
Goalies must provide their own gloves and alternate color shirt (any type of glove is fine)
Parents we encourage you to bring disinfectant to each game and practice and make sure to disinfect your players hands prior to leaving the field
Please respect the referees as this will be new to them as well, as always ref abuse will never be tolerated!!!!!!
Please respect the fact we are trying to keep everyone safe as best as we possibly can
Here's hoping for safe and successful season!
Best Wishes,
BHSA
