KIDBALL is committed to the health, safety, and well-being of all of our families.   We are following the CDC, Federal, State, and Local guidelines and protocols to honor this commitment while providing quality KIDBALL programming for everyone.  To that end, the following modifications have been made to KIDBALL programs:

Basketball Updated (Feb 13th, 2022) Taken from RETURN TO R.A.I.S.E. OPERATIONS PLAN FOR MCPS ATHLETICS 
Updated Feb 13th return-to-raise-communication

Indoor Mask Guidance for MCPS Athletics will return to previous guidance that requires masks to be worn indoors at all times, with
limited exceptions. The updated guidance is below.
For indoor sports, masks must be worn at all times, except as noted below:
 Basketball – fully vaccinated student-athletes are not required to wear face coverings when actively engaged in practices and contests.
o Officials/Referees – game officials/referees who are fully vaccinated and engaged in the sports of basketball are not required to wear face coverings. Masks/face coverings must be worn at all other times (to and from the court/mat, hallways, etc.). 
Student-athletes must wear masks on the bench, when not actively participating. Therefore, student athletes must have masks accessible to wear while on the bench. For basketball, a reasonable, common sense approach should be used for student-athletes entering/exiting a game (for instance, rapid subbing at the end of the game for offense/defense)


This guidance will remain applicable across MCPS Athletics, pending future Montgomery County Board of Health review. The COVID-19 Task Force for MCPS Athletics, which includes representation from the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services and Office of Emergency Management and Homeland Security, will review future guidelines and provide updated guidance. 

ALL KIDBALL Coaches are fully vaccinated
