1. Mask Expectations at Meets and Practices
The coaching staff wants to make sure that all athletes and parents are clear on expectations set out by CHSAA this season. CHSAA has received numerous pictures and emails from athletic programs not following the requirements and mandates that have been put in place. These programs are in jeopardy of being shut down for the season. We want to make sure we do not become one of those teams. Here is everything you need to know. 

• CHSAA COVID 19 Requirements and Mandates (link)

​
Mask Requirements

• Everyone must arrive to practice wearing a mask.
• All non-active participants (coaches, volunteers, managers, essential workers, security, medical personnel, and non-working officials) must wear a mask throughout the event/competition. This includes athletes not actively participating in competition.
• Athletes must carry their masks on their person at all times, even when running or racing. 
• At meets, athletes are required to have their face masks on at the starting line until instructed to remove them. Athletes are required to put their mask back on as soon as they have completed their race.
