Hello CFB Hfx Curlers,
We are opening the Club for practice-only.
As per provincial regulations, a sheet can have 8 curlers. We can have 3 distanced sheets operating at one time provided each group prepares and enters the Ice Shed separately.
Sheets of practice can be booked by phone only. We will be open for practice during the day (Monday, Wednesday, Saturday & Sunday) and evening weekdays (subject to change based on demand). Scheduling updates will be announced as we go. Evening practice sessions are prioritized for those that regularly play in leagues at those days/times.
Below are the provincial restrictions and updates we have so far:
COVID-19 UPDATE DECEMBER 21, 2021
TODAY THE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCED THEY WOULD BE MAKING CHANGES TO THE NOVA SCOTIA PUBLIC HEALTH REGULATIONS THAT IMPACT THE NOVA SCOTIA SPORT GUIDELINES. THESE CHANGES WILL COME INTO EFFECT AS OF 6:00AM WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 22, 2021 AND WILL REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL AT LEAST JANUARY 12 2022.
GAMES, COMPETITIONS & TOURNAMENTS:

NO SPECTATORS WILL BE ALLOWED FOR ANY ACTIVITIES
TRAVEL FOR SPORT LIMITATIONS STILL IN PLACE:

THERE IS NO CHANGE IN THE REQUIREMENT FOR PROOF OF FULL VACCINATION FOR DISCRETIONARY ACTIVITIES. IT IS STILL REQUIRED FOR ATTENDEES AND VOLUNTEERS, EVEN IN PLACES WHERE GATHERING LIMITS AND PHYSICAL DISTANCE WILL APPLY.
Provincial Update:
The Province has provided the following clarification regarding the current restrictions
limiting sport and recreation to cohorts of 10: more than one cohort is allowed
as long as the cohorts are distanced from each other the entire time.
There can be no intermingling of cohorts so the space would have to allow for distancing
between cohorts, staggered entry into the facility and onto the field of play,
separate change rooms, etc.
Games, leagues and competition is currently not allowed. Practice and training
is permitted but limited to cohorts of 10 with distancing between cohorts
