2. Williamstown Lacrosse Club 2021 Return to Lacrosse Conditions

Anyone attending a WLC training session must read and understand LV’s 2021 Return to Lacrosse Conditions. These conditions must be read in conjunction with 2021 WLC Notice to All Players, Parents, & Spectators set out in the attachment below, as they contain vital information for all WLC participants to adhere to in order to return to lacrosse from 2nd February 2021.

In order to safeguard the health and wellbeing of our members and the community more broadly, it is critical that everyone attending training strictly adhere to these conditions as a failure to do so could result in HBCC removing access to facilities.  Additionally, non-compliance could result in serious health implications, while legal and financial penalties may be levied on the club and any individual if they are in breach.

Noting the ongoing and evolving COVID-19 situation, we ask members to keep a lookout for updates, which will be posted via the WLC website, TeamApp, and Facebook page.
