Prairie Cities Soccer League Families,


Return to Play Procedures
 
On Friday, June 26 th , Illinois officially entered into Phase 4 of the reopening plan. Phase 4 allows businesses and activities like youth soccer a pathway to operate in a modified manner (without increased threats of litigation or the cancellation of club insurance) as long as certain general operations and specific individual behavior rules are followed. The general Phase 4 rules that pertain to Youth Sports can be found on the IL DCEO website here . IYSA, the state association that governs IL soccer and provides our club insurance, has further clarified the rules while adding additional procedures for all member clubs. In order to participate in any activities going forward, club members must first complete and return the IYSA Communicable Disease Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk Agreement and the IYSA Emergency Medical Release & Liability Waiver.
 
These documents along with any further soccer related COVID 19 news and updates can be found on the PCSL Website .
 
In Phase 4, we are able to hold scrimmages, small sided games, and friendlies in a limited capacity. To comply with all guidelines, spectators will be limited and spectator areas will be implemented to ensure the safety of our players, parents, and staff. Spectators are required to wear masks while in the spectator area at the fields. Groups must be limited to 50 or less. Participants must be focused on limiting interactions while at Community Fields. While temperature checks will not occur, everyone must be vigilant about washing their hands, staying home if any symptoms of sickness/fever are shown, and all participants are responsible for maintaining their own personal health before, during, and after the training. Players may wear masks while training if they wish, but all outdoor participants will not be required to do so as long as social distancing is observed.
 
If you have questions about any of these specifics, please contact our Director of Operations, Tammy Stauffer at tammy.stauffer@illinoisfirejuniors.com .
