Gold Coast Cycling Club Training will be run in accordance with AusCycling and Anna Meares Velodrome guidelines, as follows:

• You must be a financial member of AusCycling to attend the session.
• CASH: We are not currently permitted to handle cash, therefore all payments must be made electronically.
• Get In, Train and Get Out
• Participants should only attend the activity as close as practical to the start of any training and leave as soon as possible after the end of the session.
• Participants should only handle their equipment (bikes, bidons, nutrition and towels) and not touch the equipment of others
• Participants should bring their own filled bidons (no use of water taps, fill up from home)
• The Club will provide hand sanitiser, however, all participants are also asked to bring their own.
• The use of change rooms should be minimised (e.g. for toilets not for showering) (Toilets will be open but don’t go in the change rooms)
• Parents will be responsible for their child(ren)’s use of toilet facilities and are asked to wipe down all used surfaces after use
• Avoid the use of non-essential surfaces including benches, fences and gates (e.g. avoid touching the fence when lining up on the velodrome. Spread out down the track with one foot on the ground.
• Participants and deliverers (coaches and assistants) must ensure physical distancing requirements are adhered to (as above)
• No post-training social activities are to be conducted (quick roll around, then lights out and go home)
• Determine which activities are non-essential (e.g. recovery sessions or meetings) are to be done remotely (e.g. at home or online)
• No participants and deliverers are to attend (or must leave immediately) if they have any illness or symptoms of COVID-19
• Participants and deliverers must not attend if in the last 14 days they have been unwell or had close contact with a known or suspected case of COVID-19, even if mild.
• Participants should be accompanied by not more than one parent or guardian, if possible. Where possible parents can be encouraged to stay in their car during activities.
