Covid Protocols and Policies

Hooksett Basketball continues to actively watch and follow the reports from the State of New Hampshire and CDC and will update policies as needed.

Limiting Crowds 

• Games will be spread out more than in past years to minimize crowds.
• Please be aware of the number of attendees you plan to bring to the game to limit the number of spectators.

Equipment

• Balls - This year we are asking players to bring their own basketball balls to practices.  Hookset Basketball can give a ball to kids who need them.
• Please visit our website for ball size suggestions per division.

Masks

• Hooksett Basketball will be following the mask guidelines set by the Hooksett School District
• At this time masks are required in all 3 Hooksett Schools
• For more information please review the email sent by the superintendent sent on December 3, 2021: https://memorial.sau15.net/2021/12/03/mask-update-from-superintendent-12-3-2021/

Illness

• If a player or household member show signs or symptoms of Covid-19, cold or flu or have tested positive for Covid-19 please do not attend any Hooksett Basketball event.
• If a player tests positive for Covid-19 the coach must be notified. The coach will alert the board and board will determine next steps.
• Should a player start showing signs or symptoms during a game or practice they will be immediately sent to designated area which is located in the hallway outside of each gym. A parent/guardian must leave with the player immediately.

Contact Tracing/Quarantine

• Hooksett Basketball will use the same protocols for contact tracing, self observation and quarantine set forth by the CDC, NH DHHS and Hooksett School District.
