[quote=Anonymous]what I don't understand is why they are still wearing masks if negative and vaccinated?  the power point presentation by the AD and their medical advisor before tryouts said specifically that they were doing this for safety and to allow athletes to practice and play without masks -- including indoor sports. Volleyball was specifically used as an example during the parent meeting.  Well, my vaccinated kid is being tested every day and the volleyball coaches have decided that they will all wear masks all season.  I'm not anti-mask or anti-vax at all -- quite the contrary.  But what is the point?  Vaccinated athletes should either be excused from the daily testing, or they should be allowed to take off their masks with a negative test.  It's a ton of testing with no discernible purpose except maybe to gather research data.  And why are coaches being allowed to make the decision about which sports wear masks and which don't?  This should be an APS-wide policy, not a sport by sport coach by coach determination.  [/quote]
