COVID Protocols for National,
Regional and Sectional
Tournaments
Based upon the most recently received
guidance from the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),
the following mandatory policies will be
in effect until further notice:
1. Vaccination: All staff, players and
volunteers must be vaccinated with a
complete set of vaccinations completed
no less than 14 days before the date
of the event in which the player wishes
to purchase an entry (booster shots
are not included in this policy at this
time). Unless prohibited by law, each
player must provide proof of vaccination
to the Event Safety Coordinator
or a member of their staff. In areas
or locations where requiring proof of
vaccination is prohibited by law, the
event sponsor must put in place other
precautions, such as mandatory rapid
COVID testing and/or mask requirements.
2.
Mask Requirements: Due to
the CDC's updated recommendations
released on Friday, Feb. 25, the ACBL's
COVID protocols for tournaments
have changed effective March 1, 2022.
These standards apply to all tournaments
- sectionals, regionals and
NABCs.
If the COVID-19 Community Level
as determined by the CDC is " high, "
face masks will be required. Masks will
be optional (though they are always
recommended) for tournaments held in
counties notated as having a " low " or
" medium " Community Level as indicated
by the CDC.
Visit cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/
your-health/covid-by-county.html to
check by county.
This ACBL policy does not countermand
any ordinance or law in effect
at the site of the tournament and is
effective until further notice.
3. Hand Sanitizer: Sanitizer must be
available inside the playing area.
4. Event Safety Coordinator: Each
tournament sponsor must provide a
designated Event Safety Coordinator,
who will be available to review proof of
vaccinations, etc.
Please note that all the above are
subject to change at any time. Please
check with the Tournament Chair for
any clarification or further information.
