We are excited to continue training and playing in line with UK Government guidance andStage 4 ofEngland Netball's roadmap for the return of community netball. Please be assured that the safety and wellbeing of all our club members and Ashtead All Stars (AAS) community remains the club’s top priority.

It is important thatyou, or those you are responsible for are aware of the guidance in this document. Attendance atany AAS sessions is based on agreement to the protocols that the club communicates.
All members and participants should be aware:
1. Of the risks associated with netball activity related to Covid-19. These can be found on our website here. An explanatory video has also been produced by England Netball that can be viewed here.
2. Who is at higher risks of Covid-19. This information can be found in the Personal Risk Assessment document here
3. That there is no pressure from anyone at AAS to return to training or matches if they are uncomfortable with the risks.
4. That when individuals feel comfortable in returning, they will be welcomed back and, in the meantime, they remain a member of the AAS family.
All members are encouraged to speak to their health care provider to seek guidance on returning if they are in a higher risk category or have concerns.
