RCYBA Covid-19 status
RCYBA is required to use the current guidelines from Minnesota Youth Athletic Services (MYAS) and the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) for the content of our COVID Plan. MYAS has a Covid Task Force that is working with the MDH and the Governor's Covid Task Force to develop a set of requirements that will allow youth basketball to continue playing this season. RCYBA is part of MYAS's Covid Task Force. and is in constant communications with MYAS regarding new requirements. The plan will allow us to return in a safe and healthy way, but in order for this to happen we need ALL parents, coaches and players to follow our approved COVID Plan. Please make sure you have read and understand the RCYBA COVID Plan.
Please keep in mind that ultimately the facility owner's (RPS, RCTC, NVC) COVID-19 plan will override any plan that RCYBA develops.
