Participant Screening

Parents or guardians should monitor their student participants for signs of infectious illness every day. Students who are sick should not attend meetings. It is the expectation that all students, coaches, and support staff screen for illness before attending any meeting.

According to the MN Department of Health, the following is a current list of COVID-19 symptoms:

New onset of cough or shortness of breath by themselves

OR at least 2 of the following:

Fever (100.4ºF or higher)
Chills
Muscle pain
Sore throat
Fatigue
Congestion
Loss of sense of smell or taste
Gastrointestinal symptoms of diarrhea, vomiting, or nausea

Confirmed and Suspected COVID Cases

Programs must follow the identified protocols for students or coaches who have tested positive, are experiencing symptoms consistent with a COVID-19 diagnosis, or have had exposure to an individual who has been diagnosed with COVID-19.

Families need to report a positive test to the athletic director ASAP and within 12 hours of diagnosis.

A person who tests positive will need to be isolated for 10 days after the diagnosis.

Someone who tested positive can return to play after 10 days provided they have been fever free for 24 hours without using fever reducing medication and their symptoms have greatly improved.

Any person who was in *close contact with a COVID positive person needs to be quarantined for 14 days.

If a student participant comes to a meeting with symptoms of COVID-19 or any other illness; the student will be assessed and the parent or guardian will be called and they, or an emergency contact, will be expected to pick up their student within 30 minutes of notification.

*Close Contact as defined by MDH: Spending 15 minutes of time less than 6 feet from someone who has COVID-19 disease.
