Hello Everyone,
We are pleased to inform you that the Return to Sport Guidelines from viaSport have been released allowing Figure Skating to resume in BC. The BC/YK Section Return to Play for Figure Skating Guidelines have also been approved by the BC/YK Section Board of Directors, which provides the detail by which clubs can return to the rinks should their local facility be open. Please take a close look at all the detail in the documents posted on the BC/YK Section COVID-19 page and work with your facility for a unified approach to return to the rink.
Appendix B, the Skate Canada Waiver, is a very important document and is currently going through a preparation procedure and should be available soon. All skaters, parents, coaches, and volunteers must give written consent by signing and submitting the official Skate Canada waiver prior to any participation.
Also, we are pleased to host a Town Hall meeting that will be live streamed on the www.skatinginbc.com website.The Town Hall meeting will be held this Wednesday June 3 at 7:00pm. We will review the plan, and answer your questions. Details regarding the Town Hall meeting will be sent out tomorrow. Please send any questions you would like answered on the Town Hall to bcyksection@skatinginbc.com
As we begin to return to the ice please understand that there will be challenges to overcome but if we remain diligent and committed we will do it together.
