As you will have seen on the news, there is a lot of discussion again about Covid.

Whilst we don't want to add to any upset or worry, we felt we needed to just send out a short club reminder about the current Covid restrictions we are following from England Netball.

We have had a couple of questions from parents in relation to the club stance on various situations, so we hope this short update helps to clarify those. Whilst we don't have all the answers, we are looking to keep all of our players, coaches, team managers and families as safe as we possibly can at this time.
Questions raised:

"I have two daughters at the club, one has tested positive for Covid, the other is fit and well, with a negative LFT test - is she allowed to continue to train/play?"


The current guidance from England Netball advises that in order for the sibling to attend training, they are required to have had a negative PCR test and then a negative Lateral Flow Test (LFT) on the day of the training/match.
"Should I be regularly completing a Lateral Flow Test before my child attends training or a match?"

Whilst it isn't compulsory, we think it would be really helpful over the next few weeks in the run up to Christmas, if you could encourage your daughter to take a Lateral Flow Test on the day of training or their match.

We want to keep everyone as safe as we can in the run up to Christmas, so we can all enjoy the festive break.
"My daughter has been exposed to Covid but she is vaccinated, does she still need to have a PCR test?"

Yes, although they are vaccinated, they are still vulnerable to Covid. If they have been exposed to the virus through close contact, they will need to produce a negative PCR test and then a negative Lateral Flow Test before being able to return to netball.
As things continue to change over the coming weeks, we will endeavour to keep you as updated as we can.

In the meantime if you have any direct questions or queries, please feel free to email the committee confidentially on secretary1wlnetball@hotmail.com.
