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.
