Current COVID Status/Regs for Volleyball-Updated Aug 2020

COVID 19 Regulations & Expectations: we will adhere to all MA safety regulations and recommendations for moderate-risk
sports that apply: physical distancing, masks and sanitization of equipment. Our primary goal is to teach the players and
protect them within our control. It is also very important that each player and family discuss and implement their own
requirements for on and off court safety. MA guidelines may be found here:
https://www.mass.gov/doc/safety-standards-for-youth-and-adult-amateur-sports-activities-phase-iii-step-1/download
USAV guidelines may be found here:
https://www.teamusa.org/usa-volleyball/features/usa-volleyball-response-on-coronavirus
Our policy is: if anyone tests positive for Covid or is in contact with someone, who has tested positive, they should advise
MGA and will be asked to get tested and not join practice until test results. At that point, all should follow the
most-up-to-date MA guidelines for next steps. Any  player or family, who does not abide by our/state guidelines may not be allowed to participate in activities.

MGA VBC and Starland, in Hanover MA, will be launching the first ever High School Indoor Volleyball League: a 7 week league with skill training.  League to start on Monday October 5th.    We will host 30 minute games in a two hour session, two nights a week and a 3  hour skill development session on Sunday afternoons.  We believe that this offer to play and practice for approximately 49 hours for the league or 7 hours per week is a steal at $425 per player with a minimum of 8 players per team and a maximum of 12 players per team.  Each school will be allowed to have up to two teams. See Sign Up Information Below and Rally Your Team!

•Teams participate on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm - three teams on one court.  We will have 4 total courts with three teams on each court. one team will officiate while two teams play each other.  There will be social distancing and all players will be wearing masks.

•We will use hand held squeeze whistles and all whistles will be disinfected after every match.

•We will adhere to USAV Volleyball rules and teams will be allowed to play with no less than 4 players and the ghost rule will apply to those teams with less than 6 players on any given day.

•We will account for wins, losses, head to head matchups and point differential on a weekly basis and teams will play all schools attending by the end of the league.

•There will be a championship day on the seventh week to determine a League Champion.

•On Sundays, all players will be sent to one of 8 courts for skill development.
