As with any organization, we were heavily affected by covid and lockdown, even more so being a sports program which involves contact. We did what we could to stay in touch with our kids through a watsapp group, sending videos and activity ideas.
A soon as restrictions lifted slightly, we paid our kids a visit, gifting them each a branded mask and some covid essentials, as well as a journal in the hopes to let our kids express their frustrations.
We also followed the newly exciting trend of tiktok dances and decided to create a competition between the groups, with the help of an external judge, who voted the winning group. They got an outing to spur for their efforts.
We had to make quite a few adjustments in order to begin operating again, in some instances finding new spaces for training and of course, stricter measures of sanitation. what a time it was and we are so thankful it’s behind us now.
