Covid-19

In light of the Covid-19 pandemic, there are many additional considerations this season. Below is our safety
protocols that the senior team used this summer which worked out very nicely.

      •    All Athletes must have their parents sign and return a WAC COVID-19 Waiver
      •    Swimmers are required to wear a mask upon leaving their car until they enter the pool and return to their car
      •    Swimmers will have their temperatures taken prior to entering the pool area
      •    No Parents or Spectators inside the pool grounds
      •    No locker room access, swimmers must arrive and leave in their bathing suits
      •    No sharing of equipment

As with all things during this time, we will be adaptable and make changes as needed to respond to issues as
they arise.

As the winter months approach, we will address any additional changes to our procedures as needed. Note
that in the safety plan that the coaching staff has the authority to mandate a precautionary quarantine of any
athlete suspected to be at an elevated risk of transmission of Covid-19, and that adhering to all guidelines
outlined in the plan is a condition of membership. As part of our collective effort to keep the pool operating
safely, your compliance in all matters related to our safety protocols is a necessity.

Finally, we anticipate setbacks and challenges until this pandemic is over. Much like in the spring and
summer, we will act swiftly and decisively to protect your kids and will respond to unique challenges as they
arise.
We believe it is necessary to continue to operate practices at a reduced capacity in order to maintain social
distancing in this Covid-19 environment. Using past and current attendance trends and anticipated roster
numbers as a guide, we have put together a schedule that will allow us to continue to provide substantially
more lane space to groups, while also allowing for divergences in curriculum based on the swimmers’ current
skill levels, growth and maturation trends, and individual goals.While the schedule cannot provide the same
number of workouts for groups as in the past, it will more than be made up for with the additional lane space
and coach-to-swimmer ratios. Our talented coaching staff is returning intact I am confident these changes will
make our program better.
