THERE IS AN INHERENT RISK OF EXPOSURE TO COVID-19 IN ANY PUBLIC PLACE WHERE PEOPLE ARE PRESENT. COVID-19 IS AN EXTREMELY CONTAGIOUS DISEASE THAT CAN LEAD TO SEVERE ILLNESS AND DEATH. ACCORDING TO THE CDC, SENIOR CITIZENS AND GUESTS WITH UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITIONS ARE ESPECIALLY VULNERABLE. BY ENTERING MILFORD ICE ARENA, YOU VOLUNTARILY ASSUME ALL RISKS RELATED TO EXPOSURE TO COVID-19, AND MILFORD ICE ARENA DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY RELATED THERETO.
MILFORD ICE ARENA UPDATED PROTOCOL-EFFECTIVE 8/31
For practices and scrimmages/games, we will now allow up to 50 players, coaches and/or referees plus one parent/guardian per player into the rink. We are also officially opening player’s benches, penalty boxes and the scorekeeper’s box. In addition, our locker rooms will be opened for players (showers are still closed).
Locker room doors will remain open during a game and after cleaning and will only be closed while the players dress and undress. We encourage the coaches to limit their post-game talks as we need to get players and parents in and out of the building quickly to continue to allow for 10 minute practice and game start times. The locker rooms will be disinfected after every usage. Teams are encouraged to get on the ice as soon as the Zamboni door closes.
Players and coaches will be allowed into the arena 20 minutes prior to their practice/game time start. They must go directly to their locker room and dress. If players cannot dress themselves, then it should be done in the parking lot. Coaches should either tie the players skates if they cannot or the parent should do it prior to coming into the rink. Parents will NOT be allowed into the rink until the parents from the previous practice/game have exited the building. Parents must go into the stands and will not be able to walk around the building, go into the locker rooms or stand on the glass. This is being done because we want to limit cleaning locations. Once the event starts, the rink doors will be locked and parents will not be allowed to go in and out of the building.
We will continue to strictly enforce temperature checks, social distancing and the wearing of masks. Everyone must wear a mask when inside the building. Players can remove their mask when they put their helmet on in the locker room. Their helmet should not be removed until they are back in the locker room and can put their mask back on. Coaches need to wear a mask at all times even when on the ice or bench.
