Masks No longer mandatory at Hockey PEI Sanctioned Events
Department: Safety & Risk Management
Date: May 6th, 2022

As per the Chief Public Health Office of PEI, today, May 6th will mark the end to the mandate to wear masks in indoor public places. Therefore, masks are no longer required to be wore by members or the public at Hockey PEI sanctioned events.

Masks are still strongly recommended in indoor public places after this date. Masks will still be required in certain high-risk settings, including hospitals, long term, and community care homes, on public transit, early learning and childcare and for students and staff in K-12 when they are on buses and when not seated in class.

Wearing a mask in the community is a measure to protect you and those around you, even if you don't have symptoms.

Changes to COVID-19 Guidance (Step 2)
Department: Safety & Risk Management
Date: March 17th, 2022

Hello Members,

As a reminder, PEI is moving to Step 2 of its "Moving on" Plan beginning today. There are few changes as they relate to our Hockey Operations, although here are a few important ones to note:

  • Organized sport and recreation activities with interaction within 2m/6ft (including games and interprovincial competition) are now permitted with a maximum of 100 participants interacting over the course of a day
    • No isolation for unvaccinated and partially vaccinated travellers. Testing of travellers continues at our Provincial borders. Federal border measures may apply.
    • Isolation for household close contacts // Enhanced measures for non-household close contacts // Isolation for cases based on vaccination status
    • Organized Gatherings can now hold up to 75% Capacity (inside our arenas). Organizers are required to maximize use of space to allow for as much physical distancing as possible. Additional guidance this public health measures here
    • Masking still required in indoor public places, and workplaces where distancing cannot be maintained (unless actively eating or drinking).

Additional guidance for sport and recreation activities can be found here

Thanks,
Tanner

Subject: Ending PEI Vax Pass Program

Good afternoon,

As you may know, earlier this week Premier King and Dr. Morrison announced the end of the PEI Vax Pass Program as of 12:01 a.m. on Monday, February 28. This initiative - which required proof of vaccination for individuals accessing discretionary activities and events based on level of risk - was always intended to be a time-limited measure to help reduce the transmission of COVID-19 in our province, and we recognize that its success in doing so has been because of your support in implementing this public health measure. Your efforts have helped to keep Islanders and visitors safe - thank you for doing your part.

As government prepares to discontinue the PEI Vax Pass Program in the coming days, we will be updating information on our website, including Q&As to help business and organizations who were required to implement the PEI Vax Pass Program wind down that initiative. Below are steps for businesses and organizations to take starting Monday, February 28:

  • dispose of any records that contain patron vaccination status information collected since the start of the program using a secure destruction method to maintain confidentiality of personal information (e.g. paper records, at minimum, should be put through a cross-cutting shredder).
  • remove signage that may have been posted related to proof of vaccination being required as part of the PEI Vax Pass Program.
  • delete the PEI Vax Pass Verifier App from all electronic mobile devices used to scan proofs of vaccination (NOTE: Any use of the PEI VaxPass Verifier App on or after February 28, 2022, is not authorized by PEI's public health orders and not related to the Government of PEI.)
  • if using a QR code reader other than the PEI Vax Pass Verifier App, it is the business/organization's responsibility to complete due diligence to ensure compliance with any privacy legislation

PEI Business Navigator will still be available to support businesses in accessing other COVID-19 business supports from Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. and can be reached by calling toll-free 1-833-335-0536 or emailing . Information about support programs can be found at www.princeedwardisland.ca/COVIDforBusiness.

Finally, it is important to note that while PEI will no longer require proof of COVID-19 vaccination or exemption from vaccination under the PEI Vax Pass Program, Islanders may still require proof of vaccination for travel as per federal government and international policies, and private businesses in other provinces/countries may also require proof of vaccination. With that in mind, Islanders and other individuals vaccinated for COVID-19 in our province will still be able to access their proof of vaccination from the PEI COVID-19 Immunization Record Portal.

Again, thank you for your leadership and tireless efforts to keep yourselves, your staff and Islanders safe under the PEI Vax Pass Program and throughout the pandemic.

Sincerely,

Christopher

Changes to COVID-19 VaxPass & Close Contact Guidance Announced
Department: Safety & Risk Management
Date: Feb 23rd, 2022

Today, the Provincial Government announced changes to its COVID-19 VAX Pass and Close Contact Guidance. Those changes relating to how they affect our Hockey Operations are outlined below:

PEI VAX Pass Program to be Discontinued (Effective Monday, February 28 at 12:01 AM)

  • The PEI Vax Pass will be discontinued. Therefore, members will not be required to show proof of vaccination upon entry to any Hockey PEI Sanctioned event.

New Definition Of A Close Contact (Effective Wednesday, February 24th at 12:01 AM)

*Please note, the below guidance speaks to non-household close contacts. Members looking for guidance on household close contacts can do so HERE.

During the infectious period of someone with COVID-19, a close contact is someone:

  • they had face to face interaction with indoors or outdoors for at least 15 minutes, including 15 minutes in total over a 24 hour period, or
  • they were within 2 meters (6 feet) indoors for at least 15 minutes, including 15 minutes in total over a 24 hour period, or
  • they were hugging, kissing, coughing or sneezing near, or
  • who provided care to them at home.

*If the person who tested positive wore an appropriate well-fitting mask properly for the duration of the interaction, this wouldn't be considered a close contact situation.

*Infectious period of someone with COVID-19 begins 48 hours (two days) before symptoms started, or, if no symptoms, 48 hours before the positive test was taken; for length of infectious period for positive cases see here.

New Guidance For Those Deemed As Non-Household Close Contacts: (Effective Wednesday, February 24th at 12:01 AM)

  • For 4 days, follow enhanced measures:
    • Not required to isolate
    • Wear a properly fitted, three-layer cloth mask or medical mask outside your home (and as much as possible during physical/recreational activities)
    • Work from home as much as possible.
    • When at work, practice physical distancing including while eating or drinking.
    • Be tested on day 4 at a testing clinic.

*Self-monitor for symptoms of COVID-19 for 10 days since your last contact with the positive case. If symptoms develop, immediately isolate and get tested.
*For 10 days, do not visit high-risk settings or individuals (settings such as long-term care, community care and other congregate living facilities, childcare facilities, and individuals who may be at risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes).

This is scheduled to be circulated through our media channels this evening. We ask associations to share that post once it goes out.

Cheers,
Tanner

Hello all,

Today's the day! Games play is now permitted under Public Health restrictions, and with that comes the return of the Gamesheet scoring app. A couple of reminders to pass along to your respective teams and off-ice officials:

  • Ensure all iPads are charged up, updated and ready to go for games this evening.
  • Ensure that games are uploaded using the blue iCloud icon following the end game function.
  • Some new features of the GameSheet Scoring App include:
    • GameSheet now automatically classifies goals as power play (PP), shorthanded (SH), and game winning (GWG). Their new automated goal classification system works not only for new games, but for all games that have been scored in GameSheet since its inception. Now that their automatically classifying all goals scored in GameSheet they can bring you all those awesome special teams stats you've been waiting for.
    • GameSheet now supports team logos! Head over to your team's roster page on the GameSheet Dashboard, upload your logo, and watch those placeholder images disappear faster than an Ovechkin one-timer. Need some help getting your logo added? Check out the latest support article for step-by-step instructions on how to add a logo to your team.

Thanks,
Tanner

Hi Team Managers
Looking forward to going back to games on Thursday.
For the most part we are moving back to the way we were before the shutdown for spectators.
I have attached a copy of what will go up on the web site if you have questions let me know. The red parts are the changed parts.
I am sure I missed something just not sure what it is right now. Hope nothing changes today.

Highlights

  1. Team max 50 participants per day (your responsibility)
  2. Strict mask in dressing rm and for entrance and exit. No masks under the noses please tell you players
  3. spectators 50% capacity so I say 250 people
  4. Parent helpers move to stands once done helping. Spectators can mix from the different ice times as long as we are not over our 250 spectators. Teams that think they may have a large number of spectators may ask them to wait in the car until they see the group ahead leave. No waiting in the lobby area unless waiting for food.
  5. canteen will be open as much as possible.
  6. We still want a team helper at the door for vax pass to help speed things up. Everyone must have their vax pass on them for most ice times we will have an extra staff on so you can go in the arena to watch games.

Thanks

December 14th - Covid Sport and Rec Update - Dec 14, 2021.pdf

Hockey PEI logo

As an added layer of protection to reduce risk of importation and transmission, the CPHO has announced the following temporary measures effective 8:00 am on Friday, December 17 until early January as it pertains to sport:

  • Games and Practices: Regular practices and league games can occur involving a maximum of 50 participants per day (not including spectators). Example - If your O'Leary Maroons U11 team plays at home on Saturday morning and wants to play another game in Charlottetown against the Abbies that evening, they would not be permitted to play the second game against the Abbies.
  • Travel: There will be no travel to or from PEI for people to participate in organized recreational activities, including sports, regardless of age. The Maritime Junior Hockey League and the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League are exempt from these travel restrictions, at this time.
    • Furthermore, everyone travelling to PEI will be asked to wait for two hours for their result of their point of entry test, before joining their family or going to a public place. Individuals arriving in PEI are strongly recommended to test on day 4 and to follow modified isolation during those first four days. This means not attending large gatherings, larger personal gatherings, or visiting those in long term care, community care or other congregate settings. They should also avoid visiting with immune compromised or elderly individuals until their day four test if possible.
  • Masks: Masks will continue to be required in indoor public places, preferably a medical grade or three-layer mask worm properly over both the nose and mouth. Masks can be removed when actively eating or drinking and can no longer be removed when seated at organized gatherings like worship services or concerts. Masks should be worn in workplaces where physical distancing cannot be maintained and in any outdoor spaces when you are in close contact with people from outside your household.
    • Moving forward, Team Pictures are still permitted, however, masks must be worn at all times while doing so. They may post these pictures online should they follow these measures. Please ensure all teams are made aware of this.
  • Tournaments: There will be no tournaments of any sort, regardless of the age of participants in PEI.
    • Jamboree type events that consist of PEI-based teams only, and there are no more than 50 participants competing against each other on any particular day, can go ahead. This is permitting there is no Sunday play-offs and no awards. For example, if each team is only playing against one other team that day, then it can go ahead.

As always, everyone is encouraged to follow routine prevention measures:

  • Wash hands frequently with soap and water
  • Cough and sneeze into your elbow or a tissue
  • Get vaccinated
  • Wear a non-medical mask in indoor places
  • Stay home if you are not feeling well
  • Limit touching your eyes, nose, and mouth
  • Keep your circle of contacts small
  • Physical distance - stay two meters (6 feet) apart
  • Don't share items like drinking glasses and water bottles
  • Frequently clean surfaces like taps, doorknobs, and countertops
  • Visit a drop-in-clinic to be tested if you have COVID-19 symptoms

Hello Hockey PEI Members,

As Connor alluded to on Monday ahead of the PEI Vax pass launch, our Return to Hockey Plan would be updated to reflect changes in COVID-19 protocols as they relate to hockey when we knew more information. We are pleased to attach within the most up to date RTH Plan (Version 21-03) which reflects some of the key answers to questions we were waiting on.

Since the launch of the program on Oct 5, our partners at Sport PEI, Recreation PEI, the CPHO and the Sport, Recreation and Physical Activity Division have been fielding questions related to the PEI Vax Pass program. As a result of that, we have attached messaging directly from the Sport, Recreation and Physical Activity Division "Sport and Recreation Sector Bulletin #2" in regard to the PEI VaxPass which provides additional information on the program and its rollout.

**If there are areas where your facilities or associations require additional supports (ie. A worker at the front door for certain activities) then the Employment Development Agency may be able to assist. Please note their program information below and key contacts.

We ask our members to review both documents attached within and to share this guidance with your respective groups. You may also share our latest communication that has gone out on this through the various Hockey PEI social media channels.

Thanks for you continued work and cooperation as we navigate through these forever changing times and enjoy your long weekend.

Cheers,
Tanner

Yesterday, the Chief Public Health Office of PEI announced a positive case of COVID-19 out of the West Royalty Elementary School, which has led to an official outbreak with the announcement of six new related positive COVID-19 cases today.

The outbreak has also caused the closure of more than 15 schools in areas including Charlottetown, Sherwood Parkdale, and Stratford for the next three (3) days.

In addition to the school closures above, The CPHO has announced the suspension of recreational sports and extracurricular activities for children under the age of nineteen (19) in the Charlottetown area for the next three (3) days.

Due to the concerning outbreak and the measures imposed by the CPHO in relation to this news, Hockey PEI is announcing the suspension of all activity (on-ice and off-ice) for the following Minor Hockey Associations:

  • Charlottetown Minor Hockey Association
  • Sherwood Parkdale Rural Minor Hockey Association
  • Pownal Minor Hockey Association

This means that members from the above-listed associations should not be taking part in any hockey-related activities in their home association or elsewhere on PEI.

Furthermore, Hockey PEI has also announced the suspension of all scheduled High Performance Program activities including today's Atlantic Challenge Cup Practices in Summerside.

The CPHO did indicate the high chance that more cases are expected to be announced in the coming days once contact tracing can be completed. Hockey PEI will continue to monitor the situation and set out any additional restrictions as needed.

Today is an important reminder of why members should familiarize themselves with Hockey PEI's Return to Hockey plan. This includes the mandatory masks-wearing policy for Players, Coaches and Officials, conducting proper contact tracing, keeping your hands washed/sanitized and most importantly, staying home if you are feeling unwell.

  6. You must have a volunteer in the lobby to do contact tracing once this person leaves, we will lock the arena doors.
  7. Your volunteer Contact tracer must ensure at exit time that there is no crossover with players and spectators. (Communicating with our staff will be helpful as they can help)
  8. U7 to U9 (kids that need parents in the dressing room) these parents can go in with the players but they must stay in the dressing rooms and then move to the top of the arena to watch and then return to the dressing room when the kids are leaving the ice.
  9. Spectators should remain in their seats until all the players have left the ice exiting once all players are in the dressing room.

system for records for contact tracing?

While reviewing your systems for records for contact tracing, consider the following:

  • ensuring to capture people's full name (first and last)
  • printing information clearly so it is readable
  • including contextual information such as the name of the activity and the time of the activity
  • making sure that everybody who needs to be captured is included on the list, e.g. for a sporting activity include referees, volunteers and other officials and coaches as well as players
  • capturing not only people's names and contact information but also what role they play (e.g. for sporting activity, are they a player/coach/ref/etc.), and
  • for groups coming together regularly, have an electronic copy of the list ready to go and check the accuracy of the list frequently, at least weekly

This is in addition to the standard guidance on records for contact tracing:

  • Records for contact tracing may be achieved with a responsible person completing attendance on site OR electronically in advance with verification on site.
  • Records including the names and phone number should be kept for one month to facilitate contact tracing in the event of an outbreak.
  • These records should be stored in a safe, secure location for one month after creation of the records and then disposed of using a secure destruction method to maintain the confidentiality of participants. For paper records, secure destruction means, at minimum, cross-cut shredding.
  • Operations should have an internal process in place to quickly retrieve these records (within 6 hours of a request), should the records be needed, even on weekends.

Although we have become adjusted to the moderate temperatures in our region, we have been reminded of the typical Winter cold. Just a friendly reminder to all our teams that the placement of the "OPEN" APM Facility sign was put in place to have spectators remain in their vehicles until advised of entry to the building. It's important that our spectators refrain from gathering or lining up outside to enter until authorized. Please advise that they're to await in their vehicles. This will also eliminate people blocking the walkway for other APM Members entering or leaving the building for the gym/fitness centre.

With the colder weather, please remind and communicate to all your spectators- (Home and Away Teams) to remain in their vehicles and not wait or gather outside the doors. Team "Covid" Members will notify the spectators by the sign- "OPEN" is for Home team spectators and Flashing- "OPEN" is for the Away team spectators.

We want to do our part during this challenging year. Thank you to all our volunteers.....and again, it's great that we can enjoy the sport when so many other provinces are under restrictions.
