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:
Players and Staff:
Players and staff should get tested after returning with a viral test. You are no longer required to quarantine following domestic travel. (See Domestic Travel Recommendations for Fully Vaccinated People CDC).
If you recently recovered from Covid 19:
You do NOT need to get tested or self-quarantine if you recovered from COVID-19 in the past 90 days. You should still follow all other travel recommendations.
If you develop COVID-19 symptoms after travel, isolate and consult with a healthcare provider for testing.
