Sacramento Aquatics Club Waiver & Release of Liability
As you know, the novel coronavirus (or COVID-19) has created a pandemic resulting in a State of Emergency in California. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and health officers have required or recommended social distancing and, in many instances, have prohibited or significantly limited the congregation of groups of people.

Please note that the health and the safety of the swimmers is our first and foremost concern.  While we plan on taking every recommended action by state and local officials to keep everyone safe, we understand and support your decision to stay away from the pool if you choose to do so.  

SAC is complying with all mandates and taking all reasonable steps to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19. However, this risk cannot be completely eliminated. Consequently, for the safety of our team, SAC requires all persons participating during this pandemic to acknowledge an assumption of the risk, waive (i.e. release) liability, and agree to abide by our COVID-19 protocols, as follows.

Our plan to continue with practice safely will require the cooperation of everyone involved including athletes, coaches, support staff and swim team families.  We expect everyone on the team to adhere to the safety protocols that we have laid out at all times.  By doing this it shows respect for your teammates, coaches and their families.  Should we feel anyone, including an athlete or a family member, is not following our safety protocols, we reserve the right to suspend the swimmer’s membership.  Our staff also reserves the right to suspend practices if at any time they feel safety expectations are not being met or in the event that the facility needs to be cleaned.  

Practice Safety Procedure

1. Athletes, coaches, and non-athletes will follow all local public health orders related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. By entering the pool facility, athletes, coaches, and non-athletes are verifying that they have conducted a self-assessment and that they are not sick or experiencing COVID-like symptoms, including a fever higher than 100.4 degrees, cough, unusual fatigue or headache or has had recent exposure to someone infected with COVID-19, as defined by the CDC. Those experiencing illness or who were exposed to someone with COVID-19 should not enter the pool facility and should quarantine per current CDC guidelines.
3. When entering the facility, it is recommended that athletes use the hand sanitizing station
4. There will be a marked area for athletes to leave their personal belongings.  Athletes are encouraged to keep all items in a bag or backpack.
5. All belongings must be taken home by the athlete when practice ends.


Positive Test Procedure

Should someone within SAC Team test positive for COVID-19:
1. The athlete must notify SAC Parent Booster by email immediately.
2. The athlete will be expected to self-quarantine according to current CDC guidelines.
3. The athlete will not be allowed to return to practice until they receive a negative COVID-19 test and doctors written permission.
