FACEMASK POLICY:

The Governor has announced that beginning July 25th, facemasks are required in all public places.  This includes the NVBA facility.  We will require EVERYONE to wear facemasks upon entering the facility and while you are moving around to your cage area.  Once you are in your assigned cage you can remove your mask.  You will need to put the mask back on any time you are leaving the training area.  Please arrive to the facility wearing a mask

 

 

Here are some of the things you will notice upon returning to the Academy: 

Who is Allowed in the Facility:  No one other than athletes participating in training is allowed into our facility. This will help us meet capacity numbers more efficiently.
Equipment:  Players must use their own bat and helmet
Hand Sanitizer and Hand Washing: Athletes are required to hand sanitize and/or wash hands immediately upon entering the facility. You will find hand sanitizer in many accessible places in the lobby. Additionally, we will ask that you hand sanitize / wash hands as you leave.
PPE: Everyone entering the facility MUST wear a facemask in accordance with Governor’s mandate. (Must bring your own mask)
Social Distancing: Many steps have been taken to ensure social distancing in the facility: staggering class times, minimizing group sizes, utilizing/reorganizing all of our cages, all in an effort to safely keep 6 feet of distance.
Disinfecting:  We have put in place disinfecting protocols to include hourly cleaning, specifically the bathroom and all high touch areas within the facility.
Restrooms: We request that all athletes and customers please refrain from using the restroom unless it is an emergency. The more we can reduce use in these high touch areas, the safer they will be.
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions that you may have about the steps we are taking to keep you, and every athlete safe in our facility.

Beginning June 15th – Until Further Notice

 Facility use by Appointment Only  –  NO WALK-IN’S ALLOWED AT THIS TIME
EVERYONE ENTERING THE FACILITY IS REQUIRED TO WEAR A FACEMASK PER GOVERNOR’S MANDATE.  (ATHLETES MAY TAKE MASKS OFF WHEN IN CAGES, BUT MUST WEAR THEM AT ALL OTHER TIMES WHILE MOVING ABOUT THE FACILITY.)
ALL NEW AND RETURNING CUSTOMERS/MEMBERS MUST HAVE A SIGNED, UPDATED LIABILITY WAIVER BEFORE USING FACILITY
TO HELP STAY WITHIN CAPACITY LIMITS, NO ONE OTHER THAN ATHLETES PARTICIPATING IN TRAINING ALLOWED IN THE FACILITY.
