NEW SEASON ALERT! SPRING '22 Sports
All Sport Specific Information is Included Below
Please see the information below that will help us get you through the spring season.
Welcome Spring Coaches, As always we work for you and we are here to meet the needs of you and your student athletes.
Ashley's needs from spring coaches:
In a subsequent email we will attach what we have for spring schedules. If there are changes please let me know so I can adjust ASAP. Please make sure we have all non-leagues added that as well!
Transportation requests: buses with a departure time between 3pm and 4pm are difficult because of elementary and middle school runs, however we will do our best to get you where you need to be.
In terms of uniforms please set up a time with me so we can make the handout process more efficient.
If there is anything I have missed please let me know and I will get you what you need!
Coaches info from Karen
Stipends: Payroll will continue to do a spreadsheet with all coaches and their stipends listed as a way to submit for payment. Coaches will no longer be responsible for going into TalentEd twice a season to get paid.
It is important that coaches and the amount of their stipends are on that list correctly. Please confirm with your coaches so there is no misunderstanding. If a position is being split, we need to know immediately so that we can post the position that suggests the splitting of the stipend and who is getting what. Please contact me if you have any questions. The first half of the Spring Coaches' Stipend is 4/15/22!
Student Activity Accounts: I have current balances for each account if anyone needs theirs. I’ve attached deposit and withdrawal slips below. Wendy Chan is as flexible as possible in getting checks to coaches. If you need to put a rush on it, please give her some notice.
Flyer Van Usage: If you want to reserve a Van(s), please let me know as soon as possible, as they are very popular. If you are NOT CERTIFIED, you may not drive a van!! If you’d like to become certified, please let me know. Angela Furtado from Transportation is available on a limited basis, but she will do her best to work with your schedule.
Volunteers: If you have NEW volunteers, please have them complete a CORI, which is also attached. CORI’s are good for 3 years for returning volunteers. If you’re not sure, have them complete it anyway! CORI’s from other “places” are not acceptable. You can drop CORI’s here in the AO or scan them over to me, just remember to include a copy of a current drivers license and indicate which sport you're with. kfimlaid@framingham.k12.ma.us.
I’m here from 6:30am-2:30pm most school days and am happy to help in any way I can; please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Important PHYSICAL Information From our Trainer
A CPR class will be held on Tuesday March 29 at 6 pm at FHS in the Yoga room. If practices interfere please let me know so we can work it out. If you are currently certified, send me your cert card. This class will be open to all coaches at FHS.
Medkits are new this year but are kept in a waterproof bag so that’s cool if you want to put stuff in there with it. Just remember to take it out when you return it at the end of the season. Send a captain into my room to get it for your team.
Physicals should be uploaded to FamilyID when the kids register. Sometimes they have issues uploading it, if this happens they can email it to me but please offer this as a last resort option. Physicals must be dated no earlier than Feb 20 2021.
If a player tests positive for COVID-19, they must be in isolation for 5 days, not including the day they test positive. Example: if a player tests positive on Monday they cannot come out of isolation until Sunday. I will also need a note from their doctor (urgent care is fine too) clearing them for physical activity after COVID. There are no more close contact rules, however I suggest playing it safe if one of your players knows they’ve been exposed (even if they are vaccinated). Maybe try to separate them a little bit at practice and try to get them to get tested a few days after exposure. They should also be monitoring themselves for symptoms. Pool testing is still available for students every Monday morning, however it is not required in order to participate in sports.
