Hi all
Latest news
We are again playing following guidance attached
We are meeting on Tuesday @ 1pm
Guidance
Given the latest Government advice and also to ensure that safety is our number one priority, our advice to our members that choose to play from Monday 1st June 2020 is to follow the good practice guidance set out below
TRAVELLING TO AND FROM THE VENUE
β’ Avoid using public transport if possible;
β’ Avoid touching gates, fences, benches, etc. if you can;
β’ Only congregate after playing in groups of no more of six and maintain 2m social
distancing.
DURING PLAY
β’ If the physical space at venues allows for 2m social distancing between players from different households, matches can be Singles, Doubles or Triples. We recommend that players and clubs consider carefully through risk assessment whether restricting play to Singles and Doubles is a better and safer option for their venues;
β’ Each player should touch their own boules and equipment only;
β’ Each player should have their own jack to throw when it is their turn or their teamβs
turn. If a jack is invalidly thrown, the other player or player in the other team must
place their own jack, not pick up the jack that has been invalidly thrown;
β’ Plastic circles should not be used; instead players must mark circles with their feet or
a marker which should be only used by them;
β’ Maintaining social distancing of 2m between players must be observed at all times.
This is particularly important when playing Doubles or Triples where there will be up to six players on an individual pitch. If possible you should stand side on, even at 2m distance, and avoid standing face to face;
β’ Clean your equipment before and after use;
β’ No static or club provided scoreboards should be used, pocket scorers should be used by one player only.
