ANNOUNCEMENTS
NOVEMBER 2020 - UPDATE REGARDING EMERGENCY ORDER
Due to the recent announcement made by Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), along with the latest update from the Michigan High School Athletic Association (MHSAA), all school sports activities (practices and contests) are suspended effective immediately through at least December 8 or until these new orders are amended.
This means all Core Athletics weekly class services/practices will be put on pause until December 8, 2020 or until these new orders are amended. Our office will remain open to continue administrative operations and provide additional support to our coaches, athletes, and instructors during this time.
We have attached the latest announcements here:
We will continue to update you throughout this time as we prepare our return to weekly classes December 8. We will be communicating these updates via email to all involved.
We want to support our coaches and athletes during this time and ensure our classes are safe environments to return to. We appreciate your understanding of this ongoing, fluid situation and your continued interest in our weekly class services.
OCTOBER 2020
As we continue to navigate COVID-19 and provide safe athletic training opportunities during this difficult time, we will continue to require face coverings at all of our classes and events. Participants and instructors must undergo an on-site check-in and screening before participating in any of our services.
In creating safe service environments, we have closely monitored and continue to follow guidelines provided by the World Health Organization, Center for Disease Control, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, National Federation of State High School Associations, and most especially guidelines provided by the and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
Specifically for our weekly classes, athletes and instructors must stay socially-distanced and wear secure face coverings. We recommend cloth masks that fit snugly to the face in order to reduce adjusting during physical activity. Every class will be equipped with an Instructor Bin that will contain supplemental sanitizer, wipes, disposable masks (only to be used when a secure cloth mask is not available), and thermometers to assist in on-site screening. Each class is required to pause every 30-minutes for a Sanitation Break. This means every participant must wash or sanitize their hands before returning to classwork.
In addition to our in-class precautions, we have also taken measures administratively to keep our instructors, employees, and families safe. We have implemented a new E-waiver for parents to submit from home before their athletes participate in class. We have also implemented a touch-free check-in and screening process.
The safety and well-being of our athletes, instructors, coaches, employees, and families are our first priority. As we know this situation continues to be fluid, we will make adjustments to our precautions and action plans as new recommendations and guidelines are provided.
Thank you for your cooperation and continued interest in Core Athletics services!
July 2020
In our continued effort in prioritizing the health and well-being of athletes, families, coaches, and instructors across the state, we will require face coverings at all of our events and participants must undergo an on-site, check-in screening before entering practice/training sites.
In creating safe environments for our services, we have continued to monitor and follow guidelines provided by the World Health Organization, Center for Disease Control, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, National Federation of State High School Associations and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
As we navigate through these times, we want to continue providing exceptional summer camp experiences for athletes of all levels. We have completely revamped all our summer camp instruction to accommodate social distancing guidelines. Each camp will have accessible sanitation stations for attendees to use. Additionally, to better accommodate teams financially this summer, we have developed Group Rate Pricing which is now listed under our available camp options.
This is an exceptionally exciting time as we announce our first Virtual Camp, bringing athletes and teams all the best experiences of our overnight camps straight to your living room.
We will continue making decisions for our upcoming events based on the information and guidelines provided to keep all Core Athletics services safe and healthy.
Thank you for your continued interest and cooperation.
May 2020
Throughout these hard times, Core Athletics remains committed to athlete development, coaches support and instructor growth while keeping everyone involved safe and healthy. As we navigate these times, we will continuously strive to provide the best athletic training experiences while following guidelines provided by the World Health Organization, Center for Disease Control, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, National Federation of State High School Associations and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
During this time, we have explored and will continue to creatively develop new innovative ways to connect, develop and grow athletic training for future athlete, coaches and instructor success. This is an exciting time as we trail blaze new transformational training experiences for athletes across the state.
We will continue preparing for our summer services as planned, however, we will make changes as necessary to follow new guidelines to keep attendees safe and healthy. As we approach our summer services, we will communicate changes to registration options and event details on our website and/or social media pages.
We will continue making decisions for our upcoming events based on the information and guidelines provided to keep all Core Athletics Services safe and healthy.
March 2020
At Core Athletics, we continuously strive to provide the best athletic training experiences while delivering our industry’s best practices in keeping our athletes, coaches, instructors and families safe and healthy. We believe it is our role and responsibility during this time to prioritize the health and well-being of our athletes, instructors, coaches and families while supporting local health officials as they work to contain the Coronavirus (COVID-19).
We have been carefully monitoring current events and preparing for the potential impact the Coronavirus may have on our weekly classes and upcoming events. As we navigate through this time, we will continue to make decisions based on the information given to us by the World Health Organization, Center for Disease Control, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, National Federation of State High School Associations, and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.
As recommended by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, we will be following community mitigation strategies to help prevent the spread of the Coronavirus. At this time, we do not have any classes or events planned to host 100 people or more in shared spaces within the immediate future. However, based off of recent events, school closures, and the new releases of guidelines/recommendations from health officials, we plan to navigate this dynamic situation community-by-community and event-by-event. As this situation is fluid, we will remain cautious and responsive and make adjustments to events as necessary.
For any of our upcoming classes and events we are encouraging our athletes, instructors, coaches and families to visit online resources such as and for information on personal hygiene practices and preventative measures to keep all Core Athletics services safe and healthy.
We will continue to update our instructors and coaches if any changes are made to our upcoming events.
