JUDO is back

Dear Bulimba Judo Club Members,

The Queensland Government has approved Stage 3 COVID19 restrictions from 3 July. This means that we can now resume contact judo training with a few differences from what we are used to. The Seniors will start on Tuesday 7 July and the Juniors one week later on Tuesday 14 July. We have submitted our COVID SAFE plan with JQ in accordance with Government regulations and we are required to follow it.

We still have some basic rules to follow to minimise the chance of spreading the COVID19 virus.

If you feel unwell or are waiting for a COVID test result – stay at home. This includes fever, cough, sneezing, shortness of breath or just feeling fatigued.
The toilets and change rooms are cleaned by the BJSC (Bulimba Junior Sports Club) and should only be used when absolutely necessary. Please come to training (and leave) wearing your Gi pants to avoid using the change rooms.
There is now a one-way entry and exit route to the door. Please follow the arrows.
We will take the temperature of everyone on arrival. If you have a temperature of greater than 38 degrees, you will not be able to enter the dojo. Please maintain social distancing while waiting your turn to enter.
There will be hand sanitiser provided at the entrance and everyone is to use it on entry and exit.
Please try to limit the number of spectators in the hall and those not doing judo must comply with social distancing rules (1.5m from others).
We are required to keep electronic and paper records of attendance (including spectators). To allow us to do this we ask everyone to download the “Team App” to their phone, join “Bulimba Judo Club” and then join the “Players and Officials” group. We also strongly encourage you to download the Government “COVIDSafe” app and have it active.
All judoka are encouraged to shower before and after training if possible. The liberal use of soap will neutralise the virus.
Social distancing is still important. You must maintain social distancing while not actively engaged in judo. If someone is contagious, this will limit the spread of the virus. This also means limiting any social interaction before and after training and return to cars separately.
If you have a positive COVID19 test, you must notify the club on 0402 356 426 or info@bulimbajudo.com.au. This may require anyone who has had contact going into quarantine for 14 days.
