We have received a number of questions about virtual coaching, please see below for more information.

Q- Can athletes and coaches practice in a virtual environment?

A- Coaches should check with their sport organization on any limitation that may be within their existing insurance policy. All interactions between athletes and coaches should uphold current B.C. Ministry of Health guidelines around isolation and social distancing. Any practices with a group of athletes should NOT be delivered until restrictions are lifted. Further guidelines for athlete training or virtual practices can be found on the CSI Pacific Website with specific reference to Own the Podium’s Sport Medicine Advisory Committee. The OTP guidelines suggest that practices or training should NOT be aimed any specific performance gain, or pushing athlete to over-reach physical abilities that would lead to a compromised immune system. The OTP advisory updates guidelines weekly and strongly recommend to reduce training regimens, and instead exercise moderately in isolation from others to maintain general health, work on stability, core strength, fundamental movement quality, and so on.

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry has announced a public health emergency in B.C. amid the COVID-19 pandemic. To focus efforts on containment of COVID-19 in British Columbia, public health officials have implemented the following measures:

For everyone:

  • The B.C. Ministry of Health has developed a self-assessment tool to help individuals to determine whether they may need further assessment or testing for COVID-19. The Ministry of Health notes this can be a self-assessment, or it can be completed on behalf of someone else.

For sport organizations:

  • Event cancellations: Event organizers are now required to cancel any gathering with more than 50 people. For gatherings under 50 people, see the Public Health Agency of Canada's 'Risk Informed Decision Making' tool. Events under 50 people that cannot maintain social distancing should be cancelled. Decisions to cancel events should also include an assessment on the event’s overall viability if attendance is reduced. We encourage you to keep public health and safety in mind at this time. If your event is postponed or cancelled, please take efforts to notify attendees/participants by email, or by posting updates on your website and social media.
  • Workplace recommendations: Workplaces should consider social distancing measures. View up-to-date information for businesses and employers from the B.C. Centre for Disease Control here.
  • Non-essential travel: Federal authorities have indicated that Canadians are to avoid non-essential travel outside of Canada, including the United States. Canadians and permanent residents currently outside the country should make plans to return home immediately.
  • Return from travel protocol: For those returning to Canada after international travel, including the U.S., it is currently requested that they self-isolate for 14 days. See guidelines and more information on self-isolation and monitoring here.
