COVID-19 Health & Safety Guidelines
NCSAA has prepared health and safety guidelines set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), USA Soccer Federation Chief Medical Dr. George Chiampas, and other Federal government agencies. The knowledge surrounding COVID-19 is constantly changing and circumstances may warrant for changes throughout the season. Until COVID-19 is either eradicated, a vaccine is developed, or a cure is found, there is no way to completely eliminate the risk of infection and as a result NCSAA strongly encourages all participants to follow these recommendations as safety precautions. The information is not intended or implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor does NCSAA assume any liability or responsibility for the recommendations provided herein.
Before Taking Part in Soccer Activities:
• Be symptom free for at least 14 days prior to any activity.
• Stay home if you are sick or do not feel well.
• Be aware of and disclose any potential contacts with affected individuals.
• Wash and sanitize your hands often.
• Ensure all equipment (cleats, ball, shin guards, practice bid/pinnies etc.) are sanitized before and after games/practice.
• Do not touch your face, eyes or mouth with unclean hands.
• Practice social distancing regularly.
• Wear a face mask to reduce exposure to airborne particles.
• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your elbow if you cough or sneeze.
• Parents and Coaches should assess level of risk based on individual players on the team who may be at higher risk
for severe illness, such as children who may have asthma, diabetes, or other health problems.
• Schools are encouraged to conduct a daily temperature check of the player for low grade fever (>100.4°F) before playing.
• If a coach or student-athlete has tested positive for COVID-19, written confirmation of COVID-19 negative status and clearance
from your physician must be provided to the school and NCSAA for return to full participation in sport & activity.
During Soccer Games:
• Refrain from attending any activity if displaying any COVID-19 symptoms.
• NCSAA reserves the right to not allow spectators to attend games.
• Comply with all permissible regulations approved for the venue.
• Wash and sanitize your hands often.
• Do not touch your face, eyes or mouth with unclean hands.
• Refrain from having physical contact with other participants and attendees (no high fives, hugs, fist bumps, etc).
• Practice social distancing as often as possible.
• Participants will need to wear a face mask while at the venue prior to and after each game.
• Face coverings should be worn by coaches, youth sports staff, officials, parents, and spectators at all times. NCSAA reserves the right to ask those not complying to leave the premises immediately. Babies and children younger than 2 years old are not expected to wear a mask. Those with issues that may prevent you from wearing a mask are asked to refrain from attending for yours and others safety.
• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your elbow if you cough or sneeze.
• Properly dispose of your personal drinking cups, bottles, or utensils used in the trash cans.
• No sharing of water bottles, drinks, towels, cell phones, cleats, socks, shin guards, etc.
• Place equipment, bags, etc. at least 6 feet apart
• Each team will be responsible for sanitizing their game ball at each break when possible.
• Each team will be responsible for having their own hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes. NCSAA and the Host Venue will not be providing these at the game site.
• There will be no post-game handshakes.
• Teams and spectators will need to remain outside of the area of the game field until their game time. If the game prior to yours is running late, you should remain as far away as possible. NCSAA will try their best to spread out game times to avoid this when possible.
• Spectators (if permitted) will be expected to social distance. Those not living in the same household should remain at least 6 feet apart from each other and at least 6 feet from any side or end lines.
• Spectators should assess level of risk when deciding to attend a game or practice. Those who may be at higher risk for severe illness based on age or other health problems should refrain from attending.
• We strongly encourage all participants to wear gloves. This will be at the discretion of each student-athlete and their parents.
• Nonessential visitors, spectators, volunteers. Limit any nonessential visitors, spectators, volunteers, and activities involving external groups or organizations.
