As we are sure you have all heard the City of Regina has imposed a masking mandate for all City owned buildings. Since we operate in a City of Regina facility we will fall under that masking mandate. Effective Saturday September 4, 2021 when entering the AffinityPlex you will need to wear a mask. Athletes will be asked to have their masks on when entering the building, in the dressing room and onto the field. Once you are on the field you will be able to remove your mask in order to play and train. Spectators mask must remain on during the entirety of your time in the facility. Children under 2 years of age, persons with medical conditions, or those who cannot place or remove masks without assistance are exempt. Members who are unable to wear a mask due to a medical reason will need to have proof of the exemption via a doctor’s note.
As well as a masking mandate, the City is setting a target date of Wednesday, September 15 to require proof of vaccination for their employees. They are also working towards requiring proof of vaccination for the public accessing indoor City facilities starting Monday, September 20. While further details surrounding proof of vaccination will be announced in the coming weeks, there will certainly be exceptions. Residents under the age of 12, who are currently unable to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, will be exempt from the proof of vaccination requirement including the alternative of a negative test.
We will send out a communication to keep everyone informed as the information becomes available from the City of Regina, please be patient as we navigate through this.
