(Update concerns the PacNW Handbooks, both English and Spanish, and Travel Guidelines)
If a player is not feeling well for any reason, PacNW requires that the player STAY HOME for the safety of the player and others and follow PacNW’s COVID Review/Return to Play Protocol:
PacNW follows WYS Return to Play Guidelines. PacNW created the PacNW Covid-19 Resources and Procedures Handbook as a resource for our members to easily access WYS & PacNW specific Return to Play Guidelines/Action Plan, as well as valuable information from the CDC about Coronavirus and how to prevent transmission. All members should review the handbook before returning to practices. The handbook is available in both English and Spanish.

Latest update on facial Coverings can be found on the WYS website.
To summarize:
Current Starfire Guidelines: The fields are now open to all, meaning spectators are now allowed inside the fenced area to observe training sessions! Masks are not required outside, however social distancing of 6 feet or more is still required. Starfire is checking at the door. All individuals must wear a mask while indoors and continue to follow social distancing of 6 feet or more at all times. For individuals age 12 or older, proof of vaccination, or negative Covid test within the last 72 hours, is required to enter the indoor facility.
PacNW follows travel guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Washington State Department of Health recommendations regarding players and staff returning from out-of-state non-essential travel. The club expects – based on the honor system – our families to comply with these public health recommendations
Pursuant to this guidance:
Vaccinated Players and Staff:
Fully vaccinated players and staff are no longer required to quarantine following domestic travel. (See Domestic Travel Recommendations for Fully Vaccinated People CDC).
Unvaccinated Players and Staff:
All unvaccinated out of state travelers using public transportation should self-quarantine for 10 days upon their return to Washington. (See Domestic Travel Recommendations for Unvaccinated People CDC).
This quarantine period may be shortened to 7 days if all of the following occur:
