COVID-19: Playing Tennis Safely

Coach Zack first interest is keeping your children safe. Any child who is not feeling well or has a household member that is sick should cancel their lesson and reschedule.

Do not play if any of you: 

• Are exhibiting any symptoms of the coronavirus. According to the CDC, people with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported—ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness. These symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus: fever, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, new loss of taste or smell.

• Have been in contact with someone with COVID-19 in the last 14 days.

​ PREPARING TO PLAY

• Protect against infections:

  • Wash your hands with soap and water (for 20 seconds or longer), or use a hand sanitizer if soap and water are not readily available, before going to the court.

  • Arrive as close as possible to when you need to be there.

  • Avoid touching court gates, fences, benches, etc., if you can.

When Playing

• Avoid touching your face after handling a ball, racquet or other equipment. Wash your hands promptly if you have touched your eyes, nose or mouth.

• Coach Zack will try to minimize the times your child touches the balls with their hand to protect them from contact

• Coach Zack will attempt to maintain a 6' distance between himself and the student.

• Wash your hands thoroughly or use a hand sanitizer after coming off the court.

Please address any concerns to Coach Zack.
