COVID-19 Facility Requirements: Anderson Parks RecPlex

Anderson Parks will follow health and safety practices recommended by the Centers for Disease Control, the Ohio Department of Health and Hamilton County Public Health at our programs. The health and safety of our participants, instructors, officials and staff is our first priority.

We will follow safety practices with which we had success this past year. These safety measures include, limiting the number of people in our facility, social distancing spectators and specific entrances and exits. We will continually re-evaluate our program safety requirements as more information becomes available and guidelines from local health officials evolve.

• MASKS: Masks are highly recommended while indoors at the Anderson Parks RecPlex. Basketball players are not expected to wear a mask while they are on the court.
• ENTER / EXIT: Everyone will enter the facility through the north double doors (Beechmont side) and exit through the gym doors facing Beech Acres Park. All doors are clearly marked with signage. Please exit as soon as possible following your game/practice to make room for the next group. Our goal is to avoid groups gathering!
• PRACTICE: Parents may walk in to drop off their player at practice and then should exit the facility. ONLY coaches and players should remain in the facility during practice. Please use the back patio area to pick up your child. All team meetings should take place on this outdoor patio space as well.
• SPECTATORS: At games, each player may have FOUR SPECTATORS. Individual seats will be provided in groups of four. A sibling is considered one of the four spectators attending.

If there is an increase in community spread, or visitors are not following these safety requirements, adjustments may be made to the requirements in an effort to continue the league.

RECREATIONAL TEAM FORMATION PROCESS

The APD forms its recreational teams from individual registrations only. Individual registration is the best way for us to keep the integrity of a recreational league.

• A player and/or coach request is NOT guaranteed.
• We do not accept team registrations/requests.
• All APD leagues have a maximum number of players per team. (10 basketball players, 8 volleyball players). There are no exceptions to ensure minimum playing requirements are maintained.
• New teams are formed each year based on the volunteer coaches and players registered.
• When the number of players from a specific school exceeds the maximum number of spots on a team, we spit the players as evenly as possible.
