BWHA Clubs & Officials

With COVID already having an impact on our competitions, attached is information on rule relaxations that we have introduced to assist clubs to field teams during this season.

Goals

• Support maximum participation.
• Preserve the integrity of competition as much as possible whilst providing relaxation options.
• Lessen stress for club volunteers trying to field teams.

Please read the attached document carefully and ensure all necessary members of your club are aware and follow the listed protocols if used.

The relaxations are only for the impact of isolation due to positive COVID testing and defined close contacts.

We hope this will assist clubs to provide teams every week.
