Notes

Dear All,

As you are aware, the country has now moved to level 3 Covid restrictions. Unfortunately, indoor classes are still not permitted, so we will have to wait until we move to level 2 or lower before we can reopen.

We miss you all, and we can’t wait to see you back training, but for now we have to prioritise everyone’s safety.

Do try to keep fit and well during this time, and hopefully the new year will bring better times and fresh new energy, and you can start back where you left off.

Best wishes everyone,

Sabrina & all the Coaching Team

COVID -19 GUIDELINES

To all skaters and parents/guardians:

Our priority is to take all steps possible to minimise the risk of Covid-19 transmission.

In order to do this, please read this carefully:

Do not attend class if you feel unwell, if you have a temperature, a cough or shortness of breath;

Do not attend if you have been told to self-isolate or quarantine, and if you have returned from  abroad less than two weeks ago;

Please ensure that you can be contacted while your child is skating; if you are not available please leave an alternative contact number with the coach;

Only enter the hall at the correct starting time for your class and leave promptly when finished;

Only one parent/guardian to accompany children when absolutely necessary (i.e. to help lace up skates), then leave promptly and return at the end of the class;

Use hand sanitizer at the door (you can bring your own if you prefer);

Practise good respiratory etiquette; the use of face masks is optional;

Stay 2 metres away  from other skaters and coaches at all times (you can stay close to members of your family if you are in the same class);

Leave all your belongings in one place, including your water bottle;

Dear All,

As we approach the start of a new term, we would like to acknowledge the difficulties faced by most of us during the past few months.

We are looking forward to welcoming you all back. The importance of sport and physical activity cannot be overstated, especially at this time when many other activities have had to be limited or discontinued.

Our priority is the safety of all our skaters and coaches. In planning for our activities, we are following all the relevant guidelines issued by the Government, the HSE and Sports Ireland.

REGISTRATION FORMS & COVID GUIDELINES

In order to enrol in one or more classes, please contact Anita on 087-4032202. (Competitive skaters to contact their coach).

New registration forms and Covid-19 guidelines will be circulated over the next few days. If you are not going to be at the hall before the 1st September, please email me (sabrinavassia@yahoo.com) and I will send you a registration form to print and sign.

We are asking all skaters (or parents/guardians) to fill in the registration form and to sign the declaration confirming that you have read and understood the new Covid guidelines.

FEES

In keeping with the current guidelines and to ensure physical distancing, classes are now significantly smaller than before.

This and the forced prolonged closure have had a severe impact on our club’s finances. We therefore have no choice but to increase our fees from 1st September.

In order to try and facilitate families who may be facing financial difficulties, payments for skaters who train 2 hours per week or more can now be made monthly, at the beginning of each calendar month. If you avail of this option, we are asking that you bring in your payment (cash, cheque or PayPal) on or before your first class each month, as we do not have the capacity to chase up late fees.

We are asking everyone to honour their fees even in the case of absence due to holidays or illness. Exceptions will be made for skating-related injuries and in the case of prolonged illness.

Any questions, please email or text me (086-8077616) or Anita.

Happy skating!

Sabrina & the Coaching Team

Hi Everyone,

Just a reminder that any skater returning to Ireland from overseas will need to restrict their movements for 14 days unless they are coming from a ‘green list location’. They should therefore not attend training during this time.

Many thanks for your cooperation.
