- All coaches/volunteers/athletes entering must be double-vaccinated. The only exception is athletes born in 2010 or later, because the vaccine is not yet available to them. People who turn 12 this year are eligible to receive the vaccine now.
- All athletes under 12 who are not vaccinated, will not be granted access to WLU and will have to sit out those pool times in our weekly schedule or until their double-vaccination status changes.
- Parents and guardians are not permitted entry to the facility.
Waterloo Recreational Centre Pool.
The City of Waterloo has announced a change to its safety protocols for entry into its pool facilities that will affect our athletes upon return to action in January 2022.
· show proof of vaccination (QR code version required as of January 4, 2022)
· show government identification (a picture or legible photocopy is acceptable)
· complete the COVID-19 health screening
· complete the contact tracing form
These requirements are already in place for volunteers, parents and spectators (12 and older).
If your 12-17-year-old child is registered in a city program and is not fully vaccinated, they will not be able to participate as of December 20, 2021.
As we anticipate it may take some extra time to check POV and ID we will have Kraken athletes enter the pool and go to their designated area with masks on as early as 15 min before their practice time.
COVID declarations will continue to be a standard requirement for any person stepping foot inside the pool facility.
