BAA Statement on COVID -19

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.

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 admin@baaonline.org or call at 952.373.1563.

11th Annual BAA City-Wide Track Meet 2020

WHO: K – 5th Grade Boys & Girls

WHAT: Annual City Wide Track Meet

WHEN:       Saturday, May 9th, 10 am – 12:30 pm @ Kennedy High School Track

Saturday, May 16th, 1 pm  – 3:30 pm @ Jefferson High School Track

MEET DETAILS:  Participants will compete against others in their grade level, choosing one or more of the following events:

                                    100m                                       1-Mile Run

                                    200m                                       Long Jump

                                    400m                                       Softball Throw

 

REGISTRATION AND FEES:  Athletes may participate in one or both meets.  Pre-registration is not required but it is appreciated.  This can be done via e-mail and include Child First and Last Name, Girl or Boy, and Grade.  We will not be charging fees, but will be requesting a donation (suggested $3 per child, per meet).  Upon arrival to either meet, please check in by signing your child up and picking up a bib number.  This bib can be used for both meets; it will help us identify and record times for each runner and distances for each thrower/jumper.  Athletes will be divided into age groups and will travel to each event as a group.  While they do not have to participate in each event, athletes should be aware of their group’s location so they do not miss an event.


VOLUNTEERS:  We will again have the support of athletes from both the Kennedy and Jefferson track and field teams.  They have been a tremendous help over the last few years.  The meets also require parent volunteer support.  Please let us know if you would like to help.

 

BLOOMINGTON TRACK CLUB: We will once again form a Bloomington Track Club that will allow athletes a chance to get additional track experience beyond these two BAA meets.  We will be holding 3-5 practices and entering (as a team) 2-3 track meets outside of Bloomington (likely USATF meets).  There will be more information about this opportunity handed out at our meet.

 

CONCESSION STAND:  We will be running a small concession stand with water, Gatorade and a few snacks.
