Registration for Fall Program will open September 11.

FALL PROGRAM POLICIES AND PROCEDURES:
We are thrilled to announce that Fulton county has cleared Fall Lacrosse to proceed after September 21, 2020.  Registration for Fall 2020 will open on Friday September 11, 2020.  Participation is completely voluntary.  The cost to participate is $325.  Registration covers practices, any fall league games, scrimmages, weightlifting and a preseason conditioning clinic through LB3.    The first practice will be held on the MHS Practice field Wednesday September 23, 4–5:30 PM.   In order to participate, please note the following new rules and procedures that must be followed by all families.  Any failure to follow these guidelines may result in suspension or removal from practice.  
1.      All players’ health information on DragonFLY (the Fulton County Sports physical portal) must be fully up to date in order to participate.  Each athlete’s file will be reviewed by Milton trainers prior to any athlete being permitted to practice.  Expect delays in being cleared for practice if your information is not up to date – priority is given to fall sports, then winter and then spring in clearing registrations.  ANY LACROSSE PLAYER NOT APPEARING ON THE CLEARED LIST WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO PRACTICE.  
2.      While fall play is completely voluntary, any family that chooses to register will be required to assume the risks of participating in the Fall 2020 MHS Boys Lacrosse program.  Please note:   
Under Georgia law, there is no liability for an injury or death of an individual entering premises or participating in the fall Milton High School Boys Lacrosse program if such injury or death results from the inherent risks of contracting COVID-19.   You are assuming this risk by entering these premises and registering for and participating in any MHS Boys Lacrosse activities.  
3.      As a condition of registration, all families will be required to hold the MHS Boys Lacrosse Booster Club, its directors and their agents harmless from any liability for any COVID-19 infection their son or their family members may contract.   If you do not agree to the waiver, your son will not be permitted to play, and we reserve the right to refund your registration fees.  At registration you will be asked to agree to the following:  
I hold the Milton HS Boys Lacrosse Booster Club and its board of directors and their agents harmless and release them from any liability relating to any COVID-19 infection of my son and family.  
4.      Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 and related Fulton County Athletic regulations, we cannot be flexible about the completion of any registration requirements in connection with the Fall Program.  Accordingly, ANY LACROSSE PLAYER NOT APPEARING ON THE “FULLY REGISTERED” LIST AS DETERMINED IN THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE MILTON HS BOYS LACROSSE BOOSTER CLUB REPRESENTATIVE AT THE PRACTICE WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO PRACTICE.  This means that if any aspect of registration is not complete, the Booster Club reserves the right to send your son home or require him to observe at practice instead of participating.  
5.      Players will be screened by a coach prior to participation in each activity (including captain’s practices, scrimmages, games, weightlifting sessions, preseason conditioning, etc.).  Players will have a temperature check and be asked a series of COVID-19 screening questions as prescribed by Fulton County Athletics.  Questions include:  
a.      Have you experienced any of these symptoms in the last 24 hours (fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, loss of taste or smell, vomiting, nausea, shaking with chills)?
b.      Have you recently had close contact with or cared for anyone with COVID-19?
c.       Are you awaiting the results of a COVID-19 test?
d.      Have you been diagnosed with COVID-19?  
6.      Families are required to report all known exposure to or extended contact with positive individuals, as well as any positive test results to Coach Brew.  Failure to do so may result in suspension from the Fall Program WITHOUT REFUND OF FEES.  
7.      Players may be quarantined and not permitted to practice in accordance with Fulton County COVID-19 Protocols.  Families and players will be expected to follow all quarantine protocols and rules.  Any failure to do so may result in suspension from the Fall Program WITHOUT REFUND OF FEES.  
8.      Please note that participation is at your own risk.  Some of the expenses for the fall program need to be paid in advance.  As a result, if fall athletic activities are cancelled due to COVID-19 at any point prior to November 1, 2020 and you have not otherwise violated the policies set forth above, we will use best efforts to refund a portion of the registration fees for Fall.  After November 1, 2020 we cannot guarantee any refunds.
