ATHLETE, STAFF, AND ACADEMY HEALTH AND SAFETY ACTIONS

It is always the desire and goal to make sure our entire Academy is provided with

the proper level of care, which includes following all national, state, and local healthcare

guidelines and medical practices.  It is important to be aware that during the COVID-19 pan-

procedures, and treatment plans are developed. Plans and contingencies will be created to

help provide flexibility as guidelines from these supervising entities develop.
