Recommendations for a safe return to tennis – North Crosby Tennis Club Guidelines
Tennis is a unique sport with many health benefits. The Ontario Tennis Association is dedicated to encouraging participation in the sport and guiding member clubs or facilities on ways to provide players with a safe and enjoyable environment. With the unprecedented situation brought on by the emergence of COVID-19, the organization has developed recommendations for tennis facilities to adopt that could help facilitate a safe return to play. It has been developed keeping in mind that the situation is fluid and recommendations could change, based on the latest best-practices released by medical experts and levels of government.
 
The Township of Rideau Lakes permits the use of the tennis courts by the North Crosby Tennis Club.  The North Crosby Tennis Club is issuing the following guidelines and recommendations from governing bodies for the safe return to playing tennis, to help ensure members remain active subject to strict social distancing and hygiene practices.
 
NOTE:  While the tennis courts are open for play, the Community Centre facilities on site are closed for use or access, including washrooms and the NCTC Tennis Shed.
 
Before You Play
Inform yourself of the rules and regulations of your Provincial Tennis Association - https://www.tennisontario.com/pages/return-to-play
Do not play if you or your playing partner: Exhibit any corona virus symptoms, such as fever, cough, difficulty breathing, or other symptoms identified by health experts. Have been in contact with someone with COVID-19 in the last 14 days. Are considered vulnerable or at risk (elderly individuals, immuno-suppressed persons, individuals suffering from serious health problems, notably high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, diabetes, obesity and asthma).  
  Preparing to Play
Protect yourself against infections:
Wash your hands with disinfectant soap and water for at least 20 seconds before going to the tennis court. Bring hand sanitizer. Clean your equipment including your racquets and water bottles. Do not share equipment with your playing partner. Make sure you have enough water before leaving the house to avoid having to touch a tap or water fountain handle. Consider wearing a mask or gloves while playing. If you cough or sneeze, do so in a tissue or in your sleeve. Avoid touching door handles, gates, benches, and all other objects where the virus could survive.  If you touch something, make sure to wash your hands and disinfect the surface you have touched.  
 While Playing
Respect distancing of 2 metres with other players at all times, including when you come on and off the court. Avoid all physical contact, for example, shaking hands with other players. Avoid touching your face after manipulating a ball, racquet or when you hit the ball to another player. Because it is still unknown if the virus can live on a tennis ball, each player must bring their own distinct can of balls that are marked/identified to be able to differentiate them and only handle balls that are yours. Avoid sharing food, drinks and towels. As much as possible, use your racquet and your foot to pick up the balls or to send to another player.  
After Playing
Wash your hands carefully with water and disinfectant soap or with hand sanitizer. Do not use facilities. Leave the court immediately after you finish playing.
