Parents and Players,
Elmira Falcon Football will be hosting practices during Season 1 starting on Monday Oct. 12, 2020. These practices are not mandatory. Keep in mind that we are installing a new offense and need to get our bodies more prepared for the season coming in February. We will only have three weeks of practice in February before our first game. That is not a lot of time, especially if you have not been showing up. Keep an eye out on how we will be grouping our players and where they need to report for practice to be screen checked. Every player will be temperature checked and contact tracing completed before practice. If any student has symptoms, PLEASE keep them home. We will be sending them home if they show up.
I need every player to complete the following form letting me know if they are planning on participating in these practices. Click on the link to fill out. I need every player to complete this form ASAP!

Face Mask Policy for Student Athletes – (updated 10/5/2020)
All participants must wear cloth face coverings at all times when indoors. When outdoors, all participants must wear cloth face coverings before and after workouts/activities, during team meetings, or breaks, and at any time they are not directly involved in physical activity such as conditioning. While conditioning outside, if participants are unable to maintain six feet distance, masks must be worn. Participants may use cloth, paper, or disposable face coverings. People engaged in physical activity may not wear plastic shield coverings. Coaches will continue to wear masks at all times; indoors and outdoors. PLEASE WEAR YOUR MASKS. If you don’t wear a mask or are having problems following rules, we will send you home immediately. We want to practice.
Thanks,
Coach Peeler
