Protect WT Athletics Pledge
Being a part of the Washington Township athletic family means that each of us must take extraordinary steps to
stay well and persistently protect each other, in our gym, and in the community. Accountable together, I pledge
to take responsibility for my own health, the protection of my teammates, coaching staffs, officials, fans, and
others and help to keep middle school athletics safe from the spread of Covid-19 and other infections as
identified and instructed by my coaches, teachers, and administrators.
I PLEDGE TO:
1. PROTECT MYSELF
Monitor for the symptoms of COVID-19 and report to a
medical professional if I experience fever of 100.4 F (38 C) or
higher, dry cough, difficulty breathing, chills, repeated shaking
with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat or loss of taste or
smell
Wash my hands often with soap and water or use hand sanitizer
Follow all Marion County and Indiana guidelines regarding
COVID-19
Follow all practice and game/match/meet protocols
Limit my exposure to social gathering outside of my immediate
family and my team family
Avoid traveling to areas with high infection rate during the
season
2. PROTECT OTHERS
Maintain appropriate social distancing, especially in indoor
settings or the presence of older members of the community
Stay home if I feel ill or after exposure to someone who is ill or
has tested positive for COVID-19
Wear an appropriate face covering and other protective gear as
directed by the district
After a practice or a game/match/meet immediately take a
shower when I arrive at home
Look out for my teammates and encourage their faithful
commitment to the Pledge
I realize that my participation
and my child’s participation in WT Athletics is voluntary and that health safety
risks of COVID-19 cannot be eliminated by participating. By signing this document, both the athlete and
parent/guardian have read and understand all “Return to Play” procedures and protocols specific to WT Schools
and had the opportunity with the Head Coach to ask any questions.
