Disclaimer

Calgary Lawn Bowling Club, Bowls Canada, and Bowls Alberta, are not experts on pandemics and therefore all Federal, Provincial, and local Government and Public Health Authority information, guidelines and directives supersede this information. We have created this set of club guidelines to inform our club members as to how Bowls Canada and Bowls Alberta are responding to Covid-19 and to provide recommendations as to what we believe is the best course of action for our members and the Calgary Lawn Bowling Club.

At all times, the guidelines and legislations of Provincial and Local Health Authorities must be respected and will take precedence over these guidelines.

Guidelines for Phase 4 Play

Overall

• Members are not to visit the club if feeling unwell, have covid symptoms or are a confirmed covid case
• A safety volunteer is no longer required at club opening times but the event coordinator for play will need to put out the minimum sanitizing equipment and sign in book when opening the club for play.
• Players and visitors must still check in/sign in when entering club (as we have been doing these past few weeks). Guests and non-members will need to provide contact information when signing into the club.
• Masks are no longer required in outdoor settings
• Members are asked to be respectful of individual’s decisions to continue social distancing, masking and sanitization practices.

Club House

• Masks need to be worn inside the club until the city relaxes their mask bi-law. 
• Full access to lockers is permitted
• Bar service can resume indoors
• While capacity restrictions are lifted on indoor spaces, members are encouraged to be mindful of numbers within the club house and still work to limit the amount of time spent and number of individuals indoors at one time.
• Kitchen access is for event volunteers only with no coffee/tea/snack service at this point (to be reviewed later in the season)

Equipment/Sanitization

• Shared equipment use is allowed if all players on that rink feel comfortable with this. The option remains for players who are not comfortable with to use separate equipment (ex. jacks and mats) during play.
• Equipment cleaning/sanitizing supplies are still available to members to use at their discretion but sanitization of club equipment is no longer required
• Hand sanitizer is still available and members are encouraged to practice good personal hygiene

Greens/Play

• Greens may go to full capacity (all rinks, 4s play) but the T-line remains at 3 m
• All play options (jitney, league, tournaments) are allowed

Membership Forms and Waivers

will have to be completed before you can bowl.  The forms will be emailed to you before the return to play so you can read them through ahead of time.  If you wish you can print and complete them at home and bring them to the club, but blank forms will be available at the club so if you prefer you can fill them out the first time you come to bowl.

Please do not return completed and signed forms to us via email, as it is not secure. Please bring them to the club.
