SECTION 2: QUARANTINE PROTOCOL
Direct and or Close contact is defined as being within 6 feet of someone with suspected or known COVID-19 for 15 or more minutes during a 24-hour period. In certain situations, it may be difficult to determine whether individuals have met this criterion and an entire group may need to be considered exposed.
The timeline for contact with a positive case begins 24 hours prior to the date when the positive person either showed symptoms or took the COVID-19 test.
All members of a household are assumed positive when 1 person in the house has received a positive test result. At this time players and coaches in this household will fall under the direct/close contact quarantine procedures outlined below.
If a member of the household is quarantined as a result of a mandatory team quarantine, and has no symptoms, other players and coaches in that household are not required to quarantine. If the person quarantining begins to show symptoms or tests positive, the entire household must quarantine for 14 days.
Direct/Close Contact
-
If a coach or player tests positive, and has been in contact with the team 24hrs prior to when they took the test or began to show symptoms, the entire team (players and coaches) must quarantine for 14 days.
-
If a player or coach tests positive, but has not been in contact with the team 24hrs prior to when they showed symptoms or took the test, then only that player or coach must quarantine.
Household Contact
-
If a household member has come into contact with a positive individual, then the player must quarantine for 14 days, regardless of test results.
-
If during quarantine, a household member tests positive, that player/coach must quarantine an additional 14 days from the positive test. If that same player has come in contact with the team within 24 hours prior to when they took the test or shoes symptoms, the entire team must quarantine for 14 days.
