CLUB CRICKET 2020: HOW WE COULD AVOID RISKS AND PLAY ?

14/5/2020

0 Comments

 
So, Cricket Scotland has decreed that no league or cup cricket will take place north of the border this season and no matches of any kind (ie friendlies) can take place before 1 August 2020.
Recreational cricket across England now awaits guidance from the ECB (hopefully positive) about the next step forward, if there is one.
Here's something to think about !
If cricket, say, some short form T20 matches in August were to be given the green light, how would you feel about these  'risk' conditions being imposed ?
It's one for discussion, so any views would be welcomed, either by completing the form below or by email to vimpscricket@gmail.com
Recommendations to reduce risk at cricket
•  No hand shaking with team-mates, opposition or umpires/officials
•  No team huddle and no ‘high five’ wicket celebrations
•  No sharing of any equipment including cricket equipment other than the ball (e.g. helmets, bats, gloves)
•  Don’t share drinks, towels, lip balm, sunscreen with others (have own)
•  Don’t use saliva or sweat to polish ball during the game
•  Limit dressing room and training attendance mostly to “need to be there” coaching staff
•  Players stay two metres apart at team meetings (no touching) and similarly off-field while not batting
•  Hand sanitiser to be in team rooms, players/staff encouraged to use, plus hand washing prior to meals
•  Food is individually packaged – no finger food, shared serving 
  People mixing drinks to have gloves & mask while doing so
• All players with respiratory or gastrointestinal illness to report this immediately to club and be quarantined from training until assessed and cleared. Do not go to training.
