Coronavirus Update for Members

 
The health and safety of our members is paramount therefore the Sorrento SLSC is closely monitoring advice from the SLSA and SLSWA regarding how surf clubs should deal with coronavirus.
 
We request club members and members who have come into contact with friends/family/colleagues etc who have travelled to mainland China, Iran, Italy or South Korea (countries listed by the Australian Government’s Department of Health) in the last 14 days to not attend the club for at least 14 days.
If you have travelled to Japan, Mongolia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Singapore or Thailand in the last 14 days, we recommend you monitor your symptoms closely and consider aboiding the club for at least 14 days.

The Australian Government has activated its Emergency Response Plan to an impending coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19 Plan). At present, the Government has only updated travel warnings and restrictions for the countries listed above, however various meetings of Government are taking place regularly to monitor any changes in the situation and to consider implementing any further measures. 

In relation to our Surf Club, these measures may include;

• cancelling/restricting large gatherings
• cancelling club training
• bringing in "social distancing" measures (quarantining people, cancelling social events)
• implementing infection control guidelines and healthcare safety and quality standards

• it would be prudent to have all members be in possession of their own drink bottle.
• place hand sanitisers around the changeroom and encourage members to use them.
• place hand sanitisers in and around food service areas and areas where large crowds gather (such as the hall/function space).
• if you or your family members feel ill with flu-like symptoms we encourage you to refrain from attending club events.

We will continue to monitor the status of the Covid-19 Plan and update members accordingly.

Thank you

Sorrento SLSC WA
