Regardless of current health challenges, our focus is always on the safety of everyone involved in Sprockids. Going into the season we will be working with parents to make sure we are not increasing the risk of infection for any high-risk kids or family members. We will add a COVID element to coaches’ training, and make sure that everyone is following best practices at all times. All shared gear will be disinfected between uses, and we’ll make sure everyone is practicing physical distancing.
As of June 1, 2020, Idaho Sprockids is cleared to resume operations as long as it functions under best practices. Below is a breakdown of changes we’ll be making to the programs in light of that.
Risk management has always been an essential part of Sprockids, even when we’re not dealing with a global pandemic, the goal has always been to keep everyone as safe as possible. With that in mind, we’ll be putting even more of a focus onto riding and progressing within our limits this summer. Much of our programming is based around minimum risk skills drills, and we will continue to emphasize low-speed fundamental building exercises through our curriculum.
We will continue to follow whatever social distancing best practices are recommended by state and local officials. All participants will stay at least 6 feet apart while riding and participating in group activities. We recommend parents avoid carpooling. We will be flexible to make additional arrangements for high-risk participants and families.
Luckily Sprockids hasn’t ever had much inherent physical contact, so it will be straightforward to transition to a fully socially distanced version of the program.
In the event that we do have an injury that is not threatening to life, limb or a head injury, a designated coach with medical certifications will assess the participant, determine the treatment necessary to manage the injury and/or manage the injury and enact the support of higher medical care if needed. In any case of injury, the emergency contact for the participant will be contacted, updated on the injury and infield treatment plan, suggest further medical assistance and/or inquire with the guardian(s) if they would like their participant to receive further medical care.
Infield treatment will follow best practices of BSI (body substance isolation), gloves, mask and eye protection to prevent the contact of body fluids and or aerosolized particles associated with COVID-19.
In order to promote a virus-free environment, each Sprockids session will have hand sanitizer available for anyone to use. We’ll also wash our hands as a group at the end of each session.
