Monroeville
Ohio Phase 2 Guidelines
(Governor DeWine)
First and foremost, as we move forward and begin to re-open our facilities to activity it is critical to keep in mind that COVID 19 is a life-threatening virus, there is no vaccine or treatment yet and it can result in death. Safety must be our first priority and on the forefront of our minds at all times.
Below are the updated protocols for athletic skills training from Monroeville Schools that must be followed precisely when structuring your work outs:
= The determining factor in group size is the area that you are using. Groups inside and outside can consist more than 10 people but social distancing guidelines are still in place. For example, the MAC is big enough to have 30 athletes socially distancing but the weight room is not. Groups should not come into contact with other groups as they exit or enter the facility.
= Coaches must take athletes temperature before they are allowed to enter the facility. Should their temperature exceed 100 degrees the athlete or coach should sent home. No coach or student may enter the facility prior to temperature check.
= Coaches must continue to use Final Forms to record information before each practice. If the athlete or coach answers yes to the Contact with COVID-19 question they must be sent home immediately and not allowed to enter the facility.

= If a coach or player has participated in a club sport tournament out of state or in any hot spot within the state of Ohio, they should notify the athletic director or their coach immediately and a determination of the risk to return to training or practice will be made at that time. It is strongly recommended that those individuals self-quarantine for 14 days.
= All practices, for all sports may resume as normal beginning June 22. All individuals NOT participating the drill or activity MUST maintain 6-foot social distancing at all times. Workstations should be spaced at least 6 ft apart both inside and outside.
= There is still no congregating in any one area before, during or after the work out.
= Coaches should wear face coverings when not participating in physical activity.
= Athletes are not required to wear face coverings during physical activity but are encouraged to when not participating.
= Equipment must be sanitized before, during and after use as much as reasonably possible. If Equipment must be shared proper sanitation should be performed between users.
= There can be no sharing of water bottles, water stations, towels or other items. Athletes must bring their own water. The drinking fountain is off limits.
= Upon arrival athletes should wash their hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds before touching any surfaces or working out.
= Athletes need to come in the clothes they will be participating in. The locker rooms will be locked and no athletes will be allowed in. Immediately upon completion of the work out athletes must go directly home and shower.
= A restroom will be open but only to one user at a time. Used restrooms are to be cleaned daily by custodial staff. Individuals must clean the restroom by wiping down surfaces they have touched (i.e. sink handles, doorknobs, light switches, towel dispensers, etc.), with a sanitizing wipe, after each use.
= Athletes must travel alone or with a family member to and from practice. There should be no sharing of rides with other teammates.
= SCRIMMAGES or COMPETITIONS may occur at this time BUT ONLY INTRA SQUAD. No teams or players from outside Monroeville are permitted in open gyms or for scrimmages.
