Weekends will not be made available for the purpose of training, we have instead extended access to include Monday and Fridays previously not allowed. VicPol have been notified of our approved allocations and will enforce DHHS penalties to anyone found breaching these restrictions. We are aware that sportsgrounds are used by non-Bayside Clubs who will be issued the maximum fine. Please ensure your club doesn’t find itself in this position.

• Club must sign a separate Covid 19 agreement that sites that a breach may result in immediate withdrawal of any remaining 2020 winter season allocation. This document will be issued with your approved allocation. Sportsground lighting will not be turned on until we receive this signed document;
  
• Council staff will inspect venues to check compliance with the approved Training Plan - Club coaches/Managers to be instructed that they must fully cooperate with staff if the venue is inspected;
  
• A first and final warning for any breaches;
  
• Club and relevant Association notified by email of any breaches;
  
• If first breaches are extreme Council may choose to immediately withdraw 2020 winter tenancy; and

As key stakeholders for community sport in Victoria organisations have published guidelines for the commencement of community sport across Victoria. 

Whilst not mandatory, we are strongly encourgae to download the Covid19 Safe App as they will help with tracking in teh event of any outbreaks. Further information can be found here and as a club we support the use of this app to assist with getting back to a level of 'normality'.

First and foremost we must comply with the Directions issued by the Chief Health Officer of Victoria, which can be found:- https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/state-emergency

Sport & Recreation Victoria have published the following: https://tinyurl.com/y74af7vm  which also includes FAQ for participants in sporting activities. 

Football Victoria (FV) have published a return to training document - 

Bayside Council - The council are still finalising their plans in relation to the other governing bodies that have issued documents/policies and the latest statement from the council can be found here. 

This will be updated as we receive further information from the council.

PLEASE NOTE! - As it currently stands, we do not have any access rights from council to operate on any council provided land.  All tenancy agreements were withdrawn at the start of lockdown and haven’t been reinstated as yet.
