We have the DRA COVID waiver posted to our website. We need all participants to complete that waiver before participating in practice. Please turn it into your coach.
DRA Summer soccer, 4th– 8th grade, is on hold. The DRA has pushed the season start from July to August but is now in danger of running it into other fall sports. OHSAA has not approved contests for soccer. DRA has not yet made a decision. DRA Summer soccer may be canceled.
Diocesan practices may begin August 3. OHSAA and DRA have has established protocols for practice that include distancing and wearing masks when not practicing. No sharing of equipment. Regularly sanitizing footballs & volleyballs. No sharing of water bottles, no common water source. We will need to follow those protocols.
Everything depends on the situation across the state. OHSAA and the governor may permit non-contact sports and prohibit contact sports. We will follow OHSAA and DRA guidance regarding fall DRA sports, volleyball and football.
