RVC is planning to continue with requiring masks while playing volleyball this season, despite continued decline in both number of cases and percent positivity. Number of cases and percent positivity is actually lower now than it was when we began play again in July 2020. While I personally considered foregoing playing when the mask requirement was announced in December, I understood their intentions. With case rates lower than July 202 and continue to decline, and vaccinations increase, I move that RVC reconsider their mask requirement while playing. This does not mean that individuals who choose to wear a mask cannot do so, but it would allow for individuals to make that decision on their personal preferences and medical conditions.
If you are in support of removing the mask requirement I would as you email Darcy and Liz as well as sign this petition. Thank you!

I have been reviewing the feedback provided by many of you regarding your personal experiences at the club. These accounts offer a clear perspective on the practical impact of the current policy on our ability to play. We are currently evaluating the most effective way to present these concerns to the Richmond Volleyball Club leadership.
March 29, 2021
The momentum behind this petition highlights a significant desire for a change in policy at the Richmond Volleyball Club. It is clear that the community values the opportunity to exercise personal discretion regarding masks during play.

EXHAUSTING to play cardio sports with a cover on your face. Enough is enough.
Its getting way too hot in the facility to keep breathing through these things. Please let us breathe normally when we are on the court.
My kid has been begging to play but the mask rule is the only reason we havent gone back. Fix this.
Just let us play. If people want to wear one thats fine but stop forcing it on everyone else.
As the weather gets warmer, it becomes increasingly more uncomfortable. If we take every other precaution, there shouldn't be a reason we can't go without masks while playing only.
In support of RVC. Hopefully Jesse will be back soon!
No masks PLEASE!
