Hi U7 Families,

 We are excited to be returning to the ice with our U7 program! Please read this email carefully. Note that there will be no adjustments to the groupings outlined, which will be in effect up to and including January 30^th. Under current restrictions, we needed to re-group players. Restrictions which specify only players & Coaches are allowed in the rink at this time.

Please note: If anyone (player, Coach or Safety Rep) is unable to make a session, or doesn’t want to attend ice times, please reach out immediately to Matt White- VP U7 u7@chebuctominorhockey.com

Safety reps are required for all Groups, and players cannot enter the arena until a Safety Rep has checked them in.

 Please see attached groupings and schedule. U7 Groups Jan 2022 (1) 

In order to meet our number restrictions and have good flow given these changes, we ask everyone to follow the below instructions:

-        All players are to report to the rink fully dressed including skates and helmets. Masked must   be worn until entering ice surface.

-        Safety Reps must check in players outside of the rink.

-        Parents can remove skate guards in the front entrance.

-        If your player is listed with a coach, you may enter the rink 15 minutes early.

-        If your player is listed between numbers 1 through 8 for their group, you may check in 10 minutes prior to ice time.

-        If your player is listed 9 through 16 for their group, you may check in 7 minutes prior to ice time.

-        Please review with your player what number they are.

-        Upon completion of their ice time, the players will exit via the side door.

-        Players will be lined up in the same order as numbers assigned.

-        We ask parents be waiting outside at the side door to receive their player in this order to make for a seamless exit from rink.

-        While on ice, Players 1-8 will remain on one side of the ice with their identified coach. Players 9-16 on the other. Please discuss this with your player as there cannot be any mixing of groups at this time, so it is important for all players to remain on their side and listen to their coaches.

-        Please have your player use the washroom before coming to the rink. With our limited numbers on ice and no support personnel allowed, bathroom breaks will be problematic!

As a reminder- here is the Lions Rink Covid Protocols Jan 2022 COVID Rules 

Thanks

Matt, VP U7
