On behalf of Kaufman ISD Athletics, we are pleased to present this outline for the plan to return our student-athletes to in-person on campus training. This is our blueprint to return our athletes to Strength and Conditioning and Sports Specific Skills Training on our campus. The health and safety of our student-athletes is our number one priority and the following guidance is based on what is currently known about the Coronavirus disease(COVID-19). Kaufman ISD Athletics has designed this guidance to help prevent workplace exposure to COVID-19 for all student-athletes, coaches, and KISD staff and will be updated as additional information becomes available.
The following guidelines were compiled with the assistance of Kaufman ISD Administration and the guidelines of the University Interscholastic League. With social distancing requirements, it will take many more hours and practice areas to provide our student-athletes a quality summer strength and conditioning experience.
We will continue to work closely with the UIL, District Administration, and the State of Texas so that timely and accurate information will guide appropriate responses. Local conditions will influence the decisions that public health officials make regarding community-level and ultimately, Kaufman Athletic strategies.
We will expect staff and athletes to conduct themselves as if they are contagious. The policies in our plan are designed to minimize risk of yourself and others. It is vital to the health and safety of everyone that our athletes and staff are fully considerate of this at all times and take responsibility for following these guidelines seriously.
