  • Reinforce the rules and monitor players to make sure they are not touching each other during drills.

After Practice

  • End each session in a timely manner,  so there is time for athletes to change and leave which allows time for the next coach to begin procedures before the next training.
  • Do a visual sweep of the courts.  There will not be a lost and found.  Unclaimed items will be thrown away.
  • Wash or sanitize hands prior to leaving.
  • Spray net top and bottom, places where players hung masks, bathroom soap and faucet handles, door handles to bathrooms, balls, carts, and any training aids used.  (Put away anything that you used during your training session after it has been sanitized)
