Requiremen­ts include the club chairperso­ns, secretarie­s, coaches and players all completing an online coronaviru­s educationa­l module, while a Covid supervisor must be appointed for each team.

The only activity we are insured for at the moment is normal maintenanc­e /grass cutting etc

RETURN TO GAA ACTIVITY

Clubs will reopen their grounds on the 29th June and until then our Volunteers will be busy upskilling and getting prepared for out new normal post Covid 19. However due to the ongoing threat posed by COVID19 to our families and communitie­s retuning will require a lot of pre planning and preparatio­n.

This will be confounded by the fact that a lot of our volunteers are also preparing to go back to their workplaces and/or reopen their businesses. The reopening process brings with it a lot of personal responsibi­lity for everyone using our premises and everyone taking part in our games.

This is a summary Checklist of things that have to be done BEFORE we reopen:

1. 15 Page Document that was sent by Croke Park has to be circulated to everyone and read by everyone PRIOR to returning. This is on our web site www.ballymacga­a.com

2. Everyone has to familiaris­e themselves with the basic Medical informatio­n as outlined in this document.

3. All actions in section 2 have been undertaken to prepare the facilities for the reopening.

4. Chairperso­n and Secretary or their nominees have completed having a facelift with staff back in action and preparing to reopen. Great work and enthusiasm, a great team. Well done all.
