2022-2023 Covid Protocols
COVID-19 Boosters
For those who register for NCWHL, you will receive an email to submit your booster shot information. Please return this to us in a timely manner! We’ll be requiring that you are boosted before skating in your first session of the new season.
Masking
NCWHL will continue to abide by CDC and county guidelines for masking. According to the CDC, San Mateo County currently has a Low Community Level of transmission, thus masking will be optional for participants. Masking will continue to be encouraged and supported and we will closely monitor the situation.

Handling Exposures and Cases
As always, people with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID-19 should not come to the rink. For more information, please refer to our site:

Note that the rink and NCWHL require that our skaters be fully vaccinated (two shots + booster) and can provide proof before start of the season.
At this time, we can only accept players of at least 18 years of age.
NCWHL Assistance Fund
The NCWHL Assistance Fund provides financial assistance to players in the NCWHL who have a financial hardship. The award is up to 50% off of league registration fees for that season.
Coordinators and Board members who currently receive any form of league credit are not eligible. Fund recipients are not eligible to apply again for one calendar year from the time they most recently received funding.
The number of awards granted for the season will be determined by the Board, and will be dependent upon current NCWHL Assistance Fund reserves and the number, if any, of qualified applications received. All decisions are final. The award must be used toward the awarded season’s league fees only, and is non-transferable.
Please check back for next season’s Assistance Fund submission.

Donate to the Assistance Fund
Would you like to make a donation to the Assistance Fund? This money helps skaters who need financial assistance play in our league. As little as $1 can be donated, any amount is appreciated. Thank you!
Handling Exposures and Cases of COVID-19 This Season
For Updated CDC Recommendations on Quarantine and Isolation
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/quarantine-isolation.html
If You Have Tested Positive for COVID-19
If you have a positive COVID-19 test, please self-isolate and do not come to the rink for 5 days, even if you show no symptoms. Get tested before you return to play.
If You Have Been Exposed to a Positive COVID-19 Case
All NCWHL players and officials have been asked to be fully vaccinated this season. People who are fully vaccinated DO NOT need to quarantine after contact with someone who had COVID-19 unless they have symptoms. If your immediate family has tested positive, we ask that you skip your game. Fully vaccinated people should get tested 3-5 days after their exposure, even if they don’t have symptoms and wear a mask indoors in public for 10 days following exposure or until their test result is negative.
If You Tested Positive After You Were at the Rink
If you were at the rink when you could have been exposed (the exposure was confirmed after you had already been to the rink) or you later tested positive, but did not know your status while at the rink, please email ncwhl.main@gmail.com. Your identity will be kept confidential, however, we would like to notify the rink, the players, refs, and scorekeeper, of this event, so that they can determine their next steps (possible testing, isolating, sitting out of games, etc.).
If the Rink Has a Positive Case
If the rink becomes aware of a case from individuals outside of our league (facility staff, spectators, other league skaters, etc), and it could impact our league, we will notify you.
If You Feel Sick
In order to keep everyone healthy, if you are not feeling well for illnesses outside of COVID-19, please just stay home and don’t come to the rink.
If you do not feel comfortable playing after a possible exposure at the rink, or if someone (the exact person will remain anonymous) you might have interacted with tested positive, you can let your Captain know that you will miss upcoming games, however, there will be no refunds or make up slots for games that you miss. Unless the rink is forced to close, by the County, or a large outbreak, we will stick to the schedule we have and run games and practices as planned.
Our policy comes from the CDC’s latest guidance. NCWHL may update these policies as local and CDC guidelines evolve.
