  • Archery Return to Play V2
    Return-To-Play Protocol DraftV2 Aug, 2021 Developed in collaboration by members of the Archery Club, Archery Club professional and RA Management. Page 1 RA Archery Return To Play Protocol ______________________________________________________________________ Purpose The Return to Play Protocol document was developed in collaboration with the Archery Club professional and RA management to support the return to archery while reducing the risk of transmission among participants. It describes the measures that the RA and the Archery Club will implement to ensure the health and safety of its members through the application of provincial and local health authority’s restrictions, integration of RA and Archery Canada and Archery Ontario guidelines and/or policies. Background The Archery professional and RA management have worked in partnership to develop these protocols to reduce the risks and substitute new ways of operating. The Return to Play Protocol has been adapted from resources formulated by Archery Canada and Archery Ontario and is compliant to provincial and municipal public health authorities. Information provided from Archery Canada is of a broad perspective in dealing with COVID-19, click here to read Archery Canada’s “COVID-19 Return to Sport for Archery Clubs”. This Return to Play Protocol outlines what archers can expect when returning to play; describes the increased safety protocols that will be applied, play changes and members responsibilities before after and during play. The Archery Club professional and RA management team is committed to evolving this document as new information or updated guidance is provided. Archery does not require direct person-to-person contact. Physical distancing is the ultimate benchmark for considerations of what sorts of organized archery activities can occur within the spacing of the archery range.
