CVDA COVID-19 UPDATE (# 4) -6-12-2020
Good Afternoon All CVDA Members, Sponsors, and Tournament Directors. I hope all are doing well during our continued state of emergency dealing with the COVID-19 Pandemic and the protests throughout the various cities in the Commonwealth.
Board of Directors met this weekend to discuss the way forward with Phase II Opening and some easement of restrictions. Just today now all Sponsors bars are now on Phase II. We discussed and looked at the Executive orders. Due to prohibitions from opening game areas, dance floors, and playground under Phase II we have no choice but to do the following:
1.) All League and CVDA activities continue to be suspended until further notice.
2. No sanction CVDA blind draws are permitted.
3. At the rate things are going, there’s a possibility we may not get back to normal play until Phase III.
4. We encourage All of our members to the extent you can, please continue to patronize and support all of our Sponsor Bars.
The President sent an email to the Virginia Department of Health to clarify if the rule of keeping game areas closed during phase II included the playing of Darts and Pool. He received a response indicating that Yes Darts and Pool areas have to remain closed during Phase II.
We will continue to monitor the situation and provide any updates as they become available. I know many of you are anxious to get back into the bars and start up the competitive dart playing. We the board understand but please understand this decision is to make sure we comply with the law and to make sure we don’t place any of our sponsors in a bad situation and also not to place our members in harm’s way.
Any questions/comments please reach out to any board member.
Thank you and continue to be safe.
Respectfully,
CVDA Board of Directors
