COVID-19 GUIDELINES
Alright, so there has been this pandemic going on. Not sure if you've heard or not. We have some important reminders/policies in place to ensure we are all safe and responsible on Saturday while playing the sport we all love.

SICK?: If you’re feeling ill, have a fever, or have knowingly been exposed to COVID-19, we ask that you do not attend Saturday’s event.
WASH YOUR HANDS: While there are hand sanitizing stations in the park, we encourage all participants to come prepared with your own and use throughout the day in addition to washing your hands when visiting the restrooms.
SOCIAL DISTANCING: Please make every effort to maintain social distancing throughout the day and avoid congregating in large groups. This is especially important to remember later in the day, as teams get eliminated and wish to stick around to watch the playoffs.
NO POSTGAME HIGH FIVE LINES: Just show your sportsmanship by giving an enthusiastic wave or thumbs up to your opponents after each game.
