Rules and Regulations for Players

If badminton players ignore or avoid such rules, then play and/or meetings will stop.

1. Essentially, be responsible and understand that others do not want to become unwell and/or spread Covid again

2. Hand sanitiser, use it always and regularly. Should you find that no sanitiser is available, your Covid Officer has a bottle with them.

3. Before you leave to visit one of our centres;

Make sure you have a full water bottle and mark it with your name & avoid any re-filling
Put all your kit into a proper bag

4. When you arrive at the centre, keep apart from all at 1.5 metres and wear a mask correctly;

When you enter the centre, sanitize.
Sit on a bench and keep that seat for the whole meeting time
Keep your bag there; do not spread your kit around; do not share any of your kit including racket(s)
Wear your mask properly, except when actually playing.
You may find it useful to pull your mask down under your chin. If not, then leave it where
you sit
A shuttle must stay on one court. Should a shuttle arrive from another club, flick it back and do not handle it. If you require a new shuttle, wait until the Covid Officer flicks a new one to you.

5. When leaving;

Having finished play, wear your mask, pack up your kit, sanitize and leave quickly

6. Toilets & Changing Rooms;

Try to avoid using these facilities.
Always arrive and leave in your sport clothing
Should you need to use a toilet you must inform your Covid officer so they can thereafter disinfect.
