BAA Statement on COVID -19

BAA COVID-19 Update 7/21/2020

The Bloomington Athletic Association (BAA) is committed to protecting the health and safety of our sports families and the broader community. We are closely monitoring Bloomington Public Schools BPS and the City of Bloomington for our planning and preparation for COVID-19/Coronavirus and will be following their lead on decisions to cancel activities.

COVID-19 Social Distancing Policy for all BAA Sports until further notice (7/20/2020): ALL BAA Volunteers working with players (coaches, assistant coaches, volunteers organizing kids, umpires, etc) will be required to wear a face mask at all times while at the field with parents, guardians and/or players present. This is a change from our original guideline stating face masks were strongly encouraged, but not required for Coaches.

Taking this action will minimize the effect to the BAA teams if a coach was exposed to other people that had been diagnosed with COVID-19.

Sport Specific policies can be found on the Sports Page on our site.

The Bloomington Athletic Association (BAA) is committed to protecting the health and safety of our sports families and the broader community. We continue to follow all CDC guidelines and are closely monitoring Bloomington Public Schools (BPS) mitigation activities for COVID-19/Coronavirus and will continue to follow their lead on guidelines for hosting sporting activities.

We encourage all volunteers, families, and players to utilize recommended precautions to minimize the risk of spreading the virus. If you have any immediate questions regarding the upcoming season, please feel free to e-mail Stephanie Nicholson at baaonline1954@gmail.com or call at 952.373.1563.

2020 BAA Golf Camps

 

UPDATE 4/22/2020: The Hyland Golf Camp for BAA had to close because Bloomington City Council voted to NOT open Hyland Greens Golf Course in 2020.

However, we will still have the BAA Golf Camp at Dwan which has other requirements.  If you want to discuss this possibility for your kid(s), please call me (number below).  It is so much easier to explain on the phone !!  I have all the scores from last year if your kids played and if not we will figure it out. – Virg Senescall

 

NOTE: Until we know how the Coronavirus (Covid19) is going to affect our summer sport we will set up the registration to put everyone in a Waitlist (in order by when you register) so you do NOT have to pay yet.  Once information is provided (the courses open & it is safe to play golf) that allows us to continue with our season everyone on the Waitlist will get an email telling them to complete their payment by a certain date.

We are doing this because we need the registrations to happen now so we know how to plan the season.  The planning has to happen even before we know the longevity of the virus situation.

Online Registration is now open!

If you have any questions after reading the information below please call or preferably text Virg Senescall at 612-799-5455 or send an email to BAAGolf2020@gmail.com.

DWAN Golf Program

Dwan will be the same as it has been in concept, format, dates & times (Dwan Rounds – July 12, 19, 26 August 2, 9, 16, Tournament Aug 23rd Times start at 5:00) on Sunday nights.  If Covid requires that we start July 19th instead of the 12th we can do that.  The tournament would then be on the 30th.  Nothing new, in order to qualify for Dwan the player has to be mature enough to do what is right on the course without supervision. Right means keeping an accurate score, treating everyone else on the course with respect and courteously, treating the course nicely, making sure others and themselves are not in danger when swinging a golf club or hitting a golf ball, etc… all without supervision.  Along with the maturity each player has to be able to keep up with the group in front of them.  On a longer course like Dwan this would typically mean being able to score in the low 50’s or better from the Back Tees at Hyland, but most importantly know how to be ready all the time to hit your shot when it is your turn.  Please call or text me if you have any questions. I have all the scores from 2019. A quick reminder for the seniors in HS we have always allowed you to play at Dwan the summer after your graduation.  We hope you come back for one more season !!!

Note there will be NO Lessons with the Dwan Camp this year because Hyland is not available.  So the Registration fee has been reduced to $160 which will still include the 6 regular rounds, the 7th tournament round, trophies, awards and the tournament meal (Hamburger, Chips, Cookie and Beverage).
