Check In and Score Sheet Distribution: Any interaction between competitors and contest organizers should be 6 feet apart per CDC guidelines. In addition, all federal, state and local guidelines, including masking, need to be followed. Hand sanitizer required on site.
Solo Playing: Recommend a minimum “bubble” of 9 feet between a competitor and the judge’s table. Games should provide a Steward’s “check in” table that will provide 6 feet for social distancing between Stewards and competitors. Drumming competitors are required to wear a mask.
Band Areas: Games organizers are asked to place each band in an assigned area and ask bands not to interact inside another band’s area. During band competitions, drummers (snare, tenor, and bass) will wear masks. Judges will continue the 10 foot separation between themselves and individual players as required by competition rules. Any interactions between judges, stewards, and band members should be 6 feet apart per CDC guidelines.
