LUSC is committed to bringing the enjoyment of soccer back to our players, while prioritizing the safety of all participants. Our ability to successfully hold a season is based on everyone doing their part under these protocols, and promptly reporting any concerns. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
The LUSC COVID 19 Safety Protocols 9.4.20 that the club, coaches, staff, players and guardians must follow to participate in LUSC activities include the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Phase III, Step 1 requirements, Massachusetts Youth Soccer Return to Soccer Guidelines for Phase 3, and the Town of Lexington Recreation guidelines in effect for Phase C. The Mass Youth Soccer Guidelines, in particular, offer helpful summary pages broken down by roles such as coach, parent and player. LUSC will release updated guidance if any of these underlying documents change the requirements for running activities.
As required by Massachusetts Youth Soccer, LUSC has assigned a COVID Safety Officer. The COVID Safety Officer is responsible for contacting the local public health department to review their guidelines and recommendations, and working together with all members of LUSC to ensure that the guidelines and procedures as provided by Massachusetts Youth Soccer and the local health department are adhered to as required. You may raise any questions or concerns about LUSC COVID protocols and practices to Stacey Hamilton, President of LUSC and LUSC COVID Safety Officer, at president@lexingtonunited.org.
