CREATING A SAFE PLAYING EXPERIENCE - SPIRIT OF COOPERATION

Miami Athletic Club is excited to conduct events for the 2022-2023 seasonal year using our COVID-19 Protocols which have been developed using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. Soccer’s Phase III “Play On” Full Team Competitions guidance and in concert with The Florida Department of Health, and Homestead Health Department.

With the support of our event participants, the MAC’s number one priority is to establish an event environment that is safe for all players, parents/guardians, coaches, referees, and spectators under The Homestead Cup COVID-19 Protocols are provided to assist youth soccer clubs and teams in safely creating a successful event while attempting to reduce infection risk in the setting of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. These protocols do not supersede or replace any applicable local, state, regional or federal health guidelines or requirements, which should be adhered to by all clubs and club members. Equally, these recommendations do not replace any club’s protocols (if they are stronger) and should aid in teams having a successful event experience.
