Return to Play – Action plan- At this point in time, the current statewide state at home order is effective until June 10,

2020. We will continue to follow directives from the government and will have more specific dates as we move through the phased return to every day life.

- Our plan is that each player will be provided with the following at NO additional cost to families with the goal of making up for lost time on the field:

- Return to play Team camp (first week upon return)- Pre-season team camp (August 2020)- PWSI camps- Summer structure open play program**specific dates and details will be provided as we receive more information

Financial PoliciesThe goal for PWSI during this time is to continue to serve our members today and in the future. As a non-profit youth sports club, there are many fixed costs and expenses from the onset of the state-wide restrictions that we are unable to recover. These expenses include cancelled tournaments and events, county and facility fees, governing body fees and other operating costs that the club incurs whether we are playing or not. Moreover, we are committed to retaining our coaches during this time, as they play a valuable role in providing structure and much needed engagement with our players.For these reasons, PWSI’s financial policies will remain in place, as our Club’s leadership continues to evaluate options and deliver as much programming as possible using virtual means. While we will not be offering refunds, we will implement a club credit protocol that will apply part of the Spring season travel fees to the Fall 2020/Spring 2021 Travel Season.We understand this is a difficult time for our families, and we have taken an active role in providing value and structure for our travel players during this unprecedented time in our nation. By keeping our current financial policy in place, we are able to plan and adapt to multiple scenarios that protect the long termfuture of the club and allow us to move forward in the best interest of our community.

PWSI Select 2020/2021 – 3 scenario approach- The uncertainty surrounding timelines with

COVID-19 will take us into uncharted territory with the process of travel tryouts and team selection.

- To be proactive and provide each family with clarity of PWSI’s intentions and positions for the 2020/2021 season we have provided our plan of action for each familyso you are aware of what you are signing up for on a financial commitment level.

Scenario A

Scenario B

Scenario C

Scenario A- Scenario A assumes that we return to normal play and leagues set to begin in

August/September 2020.

- Upon acceptance of a roster spot – Club credit of $200 given for initial payment.**Club credit is pending board approval

- Second payment will be due on July 1, 2020.

Scenario B- Scenario B assumes that there is a phased return to normal approach with a social

distancing component in order. PWSI is developing the training curriculum adhering to the social distancing orders.

- Upon acceptance of a roster spot – Club credit of $200 given for initial payment.**Club credit is pending board approval

- Fees will be reduced dependent upon the timeline of return to play.

Scenario C- Scenario C assumes that we remain under continued ”stay at home” orders from the

state government. Therefore PWSI will continue with the Virtual Education Program, online interactive learning, and weekly online engagements.

- Upon acceptance of a roster spot – Club credit of $200 given for initial payment.**Club credit is pending board approval

- Fees will be reduced dependent upon the timeline of return to play.

PWSI team selection - 2020/2021- The number one priority at PWSI is that all players will be provided with a place to play for

the Fall/Spring 2020-2021 season. This means PWSI will be offering a renewal commitment to all current players.

- The next priority is to place players on teams that best suits their current ability and provides them with an environment to develop to achieve long term success.

- Due to the changes brought by COVID-19 we believe that there will be less movement that in previous years as we want to bring more stability to long term player and team growth by creating less disruption to teams in the short term.

- For players outside of PWSI, they will contact the DOCs directly for opportunities within the program. We will also schedule an open tryout when we are able to return to play for these players.

**More information will be released in May
