We hope that you are and your family are all ok in these surreal times.
It’s been very testing times for us all I know and at WFA we have adapted and reshaped our business to cope with the many changes forced upon us.
The fact that football is an outdoor activity makes it much safer and less risk in terms of the virus spreading.
The next phase is getting back to school and particularly the after school football sessions.
I just wanted to let you know what we are proposing for a safe return having spoken to one or two head teachers and taking advice from the FA and incorporating what we’ve learned over the past 4 months or so since we’ve been back to working with the children.
- Unfortunately, we can no longer offer refunds for any sessions missed because of pupils having to self isolate due to Covid. We still have to pay our staff to attend the schools sessions and we don’t receive any retrospective help from the government.
- We are now only taking online bookings for afterschool clubs
- We will operate a very strict registration policy. If parents haven’t completed the online registration form on this page prior to the first session starting then their child won’t be able to attend until we do receive a completed form and payment.
- Some schools will only invite year 1 to 6 to sign up for our after school club this term. We will then invite reception children to join for next term. This will reduce the amount of contact with the younger children who need more attention and of course, time to settle in. It will also free up our coaches to concentrate on the older year groups.
- We propose to split the children into year and class group bubbles so that children don’t mix with children from other year groups and classes until told to do otherwise by the government.
- There will be no indoor activity at all. All sessions will be held outdoors.
- If inclement weather, sufficient enough for us to have to cancel a session is forecast we will contact the parents as soon as possible to inform them that they will have to collect them from school at normal pick up time because we cannot use a classroom to entertain them as we have previously done. We would also ask the school to help contact the parents too. We can not offer refunds for any cancelled sessions as our staff will still have to attend.
- We will agree a collection point with the school outside so that we can receive the children from the classroom and conduct a register. From there we can also help the younger children tie laces etc.
- Only one coach will signing in at the office window and will inform the office of the members of WFA staff on the premises.0
- Parents will not be allowed on the field of play and at the end of the session the coaches will hand over each child one by one to the parents who will be waiting nearby in a zone designated by the school
