Now that the children are back to school, they will also resume their extracurricular activities, and always in rather complicated sanitary conditions. New puzzle for parents, but especially for club managers.
For example, Guy Bourguignon is director of the Dijon Judo club. He has not yet received a clear instruction from the prefecture on the precautions to be taken, so in the meantime, he tries to do the best. “We start with the same instructions as last year. Wearing a mask for everyone, disinfection of hands before entering“he explains.
But the little novelty, this is the health pass. “Accompanying parents and children over 12 years old are required to present a health pass at the entrance. Parents who do not have one will not be able to accompany their children inside“he specifies.
A novelty that divides
This novelty, the obligation of the sanitary pass, is not to everyone’s taste. Elisa is the mother of a 13-year-old teenager. He has always been in club athletics, but this year, this additional constraint makes her doubt. “I plan to get my son vaccinated once and for all, so that he can enjoy. I cannot deprive him of these lessons. But I still find it very hypocriticalshe said, quite angry.
But on the side of Alia, mother of a 13-year-old girl who swims, no restriction could prevent her from registering her daughter in a club. “If this is the condition for our children to resume a normal life, then either“she confides.”The children spent a year and a half at home. Going back to a club is an opportunity for them to see their friends again, and to do something other than go to school.“she concludes.
The majority of extracurricular activities resume this week, but the clubs have a fear: that the obligation of the health pass slows down registrations.
