Spectators
The A5 SouthPlex is currently permitting spectators during training/practice sessions. Decisions regarding number of spectators during tournaments held in the A5 SouthPlex will be determined on an event-by-event basis. Please check the event website for those determinations.
Self-Monitoring
We request that all individuals self-monitor before entering the facility by reviewing the following questions. If the answers to any of these questions are "yes", you should not enter the facility without being cleared by the A5 COVID Contact.
1. Have you or any of your family members been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19?
2. Are you experiencing any of the following symptoms:
a. Cough?
b. Fever?
c. Shortness of breath?
d. Recent loss of sense of smell or taste?
If an individual is feeling generally unwell, they should not, under any circumstances, enter the practice facility. If an individual begins feeling unwell while in the facility, they should leave the facility as soon as possible and restrict interactions with others before leaving the facility.
Facility and Equipment
The facility and equipment will be cleaned and sanitized frequently.
Athletes and Coaches
Athletes should space out their belongings from other participants and avoid loitering in high traffic areas. Coaches will help monitor this. It is suggested that athletes and coaches sanitize their hands upon entering and leaving the gym as well as during breaks.
Entrances and Exits
It is important that individuals limit loitering, if you find the building doors are not unlocked, please do not congregate in front of the building. Please wait in your car until the doors are unlocked and you can access the facility.
How to report COVID contacts/positive tests/negative tests
Anyone who has tested positive after being in our facility should report this information as soon as possible to our one main contact, the "A5 COVID Contact" using the email address covid@a5volleyball.com. Do not report COVID information using the website's contact form. Anyone who has tested positive should not enter the facility again until the A5 COVID Contact has cleared them to return.
Participants who may have been in contact with the individual will be communicated with as soon as possible.
Consequences
Failure to follow any of the above facility rules regarding COVID will result in removal and potentially being banned from the facility in the future.
