DV info on overseas travel and illnesses
12 Mar 2020 by D Martini
Diamond Valley Basketball continues to monitor the situation in regards to COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and is taking steps to protect members, employees and guests against the spread of the virus in accordance with the guidelines provided by the Department of Health. We therefore ask you to ensure that you comply with the guidelines issued by our Health Authorities in order to protect our basketball and wider community and limit the spread of this virus.
If you have recently:
travelled from or transited through a designated country (designated countries include the People’s Republic of China, Iran, Italy and the Republic of Korea (South Korea). Other countries may be added in future days and weeks)
Have been in contact with anyone confirmed to have contracted the Coronavirus
Have been in contact with anyone suspected of having such symptoms in the last 14 days
You will be required to undertake a period of self-isolation (quarantine) for 14 days.
If this condition applies to you, or anyone you know, you are requested to not attend any Diamond Valley Basketball Venues, Club Training Venues and (for any Diamond Valley Eagles) any other VJBL venue in any capacity (even as a spectator) until the applicable quarantine period has expired.
Given the uncertainty of the situation evolving in Melbourne, we would ask that all parents exercise common sense and your own best judgement. Please be especially mindful if you or your child/ren attend a school with a known outbreak.
At this point in time all Junior and Senior Domestic matches will be proceeding as scheduled.
For Diamond Valley Eagles players, coaches and parents, at this point in time VJBL matches are proceeding as scheduled and we will be guided by Basketball Victoria and the VJBL if anything changes.
