Safety Protocols/PlanYear 2020

Tarkanian Basketball Academy

Phase 1We will allow the gyms to reopen per CDC guidelines and per the Governor’s order. These guidelines should and will be followed for the safety of our staff and our clients.

Plans: • We will only allow only 50 % capacity of people to utilize our gym.

• We will have other stipulations involving hand hygiene, sickness screening for the players and employees, social distancing requirements.

• At this point, we will restrict visitors and viewers of our games to enter the gym to prevent any spread. There would be no bleachers or sitting areas to watch any games.

• Cleaning procedures will be changed for the better.

• Staff will be required to wear mask at all times and practice social distancing.

Reduced number of peopleBecause basketball or any sports requires contact, we cannot prevent any contact situations. The players are going to be fully aware of the risks we have in playing sports. By decreasing the number of people being present in the gym it can most likely reduce this risk for everyone.

• Steps

1. The people that are only allowed to the gym would be the players that have scheduled games that day. Upon entering the facility they are to comply in checking sickness and temperature. The players are also encouraged to sanitize their belongings at home and to practice good hygiene as well as hand hygiene while at the gym. Our gym will be providing hand sanitizers that are recommended by CDC all over the areas to be used by the staff and our clients while inside the facility.

Steps:

2. Players are encouraged and will be asked to wash or sanitized their hands before playing per CDC guidelines.

• Sickness screening includes checking their temperatures before entering the gym. We will be using no contact/touch thermometers. Anyone who is showing symptoms or with elevated temperature will be asked to go home and will not be allowed to enter the facility.

• Staff will be required to wear their masks and will be asked to also practice good hand hygiene. They will also be asked to report any sickness and not come in to work if they have symptoms or any elevated temperature. The staff will also be checked to ensure the safety of everyone.

• Gyms or any contact sports are typically difficult to socially distance yourself, but as CDC reported and provided guidelines we will try our best to implement these guidelines and make our clients and staff fully aware of what steps that needs to be followed. We will encouraged and practice at least 6 ft. social distancing.

Steps:• The facility will be well maintained. Our

staff and our custodians will make sure that our gym will be constantly cleaned and sanitized using disinfectants that have properties that kill coronavirus and other viruses/bacteria. Using it reasonably frequently is going to be important (this would be including but not limited to the areas of tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets and sinks.) We will have a staff meeting regarding these safety protocols.

• Foods will not be allowed in the table where the scorekeepers are and in the office tables. No eating inside the gym. Drinks will be permitted but players and staff have to have them in their bags.

• Staff will be wearing masks at all times and gloves will be provided as needed.

• Clients and staff are expected to comply and follow these protocols. Keeping distance, using good hand hygiene, staying home when you’re sick is especially important for preventing the spread of any virus or germs.
