To All Team Captains & Players:
IUSC would like to inform the soccer community that we are monitoring the rapidly evolving and fluid situation with the Corona virus (COVID-19) pandemic. We want to assure everyone that the health, safety and well-being of all players is our number one priority. We’ve been in contact with county health officials and are also following CDC & WHO guidelines.
We appreciate the feedback we’ve been getting and we are aware of concerns about league games during this trying period. For now, we’ll not be suspending league games. We fully understand the situation and are taking preventive measures to help stem any spread of the novel corona virus.
* We’ll be providing hand sanitizers and wipes at all the games.
* We are directing any player who is ill to stay home.
* We are urging all teams and players to please refrain from the tradition of post-game handshakes. We can show good sportsmanship in other ways beside handshakes.
* We are asking the Rink/Field to apply daily disinfectant on the seats, and turf surfaces at the facility.
We take the COVID-19 pandemic seriously. We’ll continue monitoring the situation on a daily and hourly basis. If things change, we’ll not hesitate to suspend league games indefinitely. We wish everyone good health and safety and urge vigilance and adherence to CDC/WHO guidelines on best practices to avoid spread of COVID-19.
Sincerely,
IUSC
