Safe Return to Play	Per Phase 3 requirements, team sport leagues cannot exceed a MAXIMUM OF 50 PARTICIPANTS.

Teams will only play the other teams in their pool for the entirety of the season on a weekly basis. All players must complete the Self-Screening upon arrival and check in at the sanitizing station upon. Players must follow all signage at the courts. A FCSSC player water station will be supplied for water bottles. Use of Easter Seal sinks or kitchens is not permitted due to COVID. There must be NO INTENTIONAL CONTACT between players at any time. All participants must attempt to stay 6 feet apart at all times, including before, during and after games. All participants must wear a face mask upon arrival and departure from the courts as turnover can be a busy time. Masks are not required during play, however, they must be worn anytime a player is on the sidelines for breaks or waiting for their turn in the rotation. Teams must spread out as much as possible and keep players 6 feet apart and masked on the side of the courts. All teams must assign a Health Ambassador who will be named Co-Captain and who will monitor and assist members of his/her own team to follow the rule modifications, as well as FCSSC's Safe Return to Play Guidelines. Hand sanitizer will be readily available all around the gym space. Participants are also encouraged to bring their own. All participants are asked to bring their own personal equipment, like sweat towel, arm sleeves (if able), and water bottle. FCSSC will provide balls.

Location

Due to COVID the Thames Valley District School Board, The London District Catholic School Board, The City of London, as well as most non-profits, private schools and churches have chosen to disallow or severely limit rental of their facilities this Winter to community groups like FCSSC. This has created an extreme shortage of play space, and made us eternally grateful to those organizations that have welcomed FCSSC in their space.

HUGE THANK YOU to EASTER SEALS CAMP WOODEDEN, the play location for Sunday, Monday and Wednesday Session 1 leagues. FCSSC will be the ONLY USER of this gymnasium for the Winter season.

ANOTHER HUGE THANK YOU to the YMCA BOB HAYWARD, the play location for Session 2 on Wednesday nights.
