The Brickpit
 
Guidelines for Re-opening post Covid-19 Shut Down

 
Dear Patrons
We are looking forward to welcoming you back to The Brickpit from July 6^th.
When you return, things will be different and this correspondence is to outline what changes have been made so that all patrons at The Brickpit can enjoy their activity of choice in a safe and respectful environment.
 
A thorough risk assessment has been performed on the facility and in light of this, the following changes have been made for your return:
 
Entering and exiting The Brickpit

Please exercise patience if entering from the car park. We only have a single door space at the bottom of the stairs which makes it extremely difficult to maintain social distancing if patrons are simultaneously entering and exiting. If possible, please walk up to the street level entrance to enter the facility.

There will be a hand sanitising station in the car park foyer. Please sanitise your hands when entering and exiting.

Only two (2) people should be in the lift at any time to comply with social distancing (unless members of the same family). Again, patience will be required if more than two people require the lift at any one time.
Entry/Exit arrows will be placed on the stairs to assist with traffic flow. Please keep left.

There will be a hand sanitising station placed at the top of the stairs.

There will be traffic flow bollards placed in the main foyer area.  Please stay on the correct side of the barrier when entering/exiting. 

The two glass doors of the main entrance will remain open to assist with greater air flow.

Social distancing and gatherings

There should be no mass congregations within the foyer area. Please exercise  social distancing in line with government guidelines.

There will be limited spectator chairs on each court to comply with social distancing guidelines. Please do not move these chairs any closer to each other. If you are an organiser of a larger group, you may wish to consider staggering the arrival of your group members so there aren’t too many people waiting to participate in your activity.

Player register

As a group organiser, please keep a register of your players attending each day.  This will assist with contact tracing if we do have a confirmed new case of COVID-19.

Drinking water

Please encourage your members to bring their own full water bottle. The current filtered
water bubblers will have the mouth fountain disabled. The water bottle fountain will remain allowing water bottles to be re-filled if required.

Bathrooms and change rooms

Bathrooms will have signage indicating the maximum number of people who should be in there at any one time. If you enter and the maximum number is already in there, please exit and wait or try one of the other bathrooms.

Initially, it is highly recommended that you shower at home after playing at The Brickpit, however there will be limited showering facilities available (every 2^nd shower cubicle will be locked within each changeroom).

Hand sanitising stations will be placed at either end of the change rooms foyer (near where the water fountains currently are) and against the wall leading down to court 4.

 Abusive behaviour

Abusive and intimidating behaviour towards other patrons will not be tolerated. If you feel another patron is not complying with the guidelines, please come and see myself or a member of my staff…please do not take matters into your own hands!
