This Albury Junior Badminton coronavirus update outlines the steps we’re taking to prioritise the health and safety of our players, families, and volunteers.

We are actively monitoring the situation and following guidance from Public Health England, the NHS, and Badminton England. While the risk remains low at this stage, we want to ensure our club takes a responsible approach to player safety.

What this coronavirus update means for Albury Junior Badminton

We have introduced the following precautions for all upcoming sessions:

  • If you or your child feels unwell, please stay at home and follow NHS advice

  • Avoid sharing rackets — players should use their own equipment where possible

  • We are advising children to avoid handshakes and high-fives during or after play

  • Hand sanitiser will be made available at the front desk and near the courts

We’ve also reviewed our safeguarding procedures with volunteers and venue staff to ensure we’re ready to adapt if circumstances change.

Where to get accurate updates

We encourage families to consult official sources for the most up-to-date advice:

We also want to reassure parents that our team is ready to adapt quickly. If government advice changes or the venue asks us to adjust how we operate, we’ll respond straight away. Our goal is to continue offering a safe and supportive environment for all our players — even if that means pausing temporarily. Please continue to monitor your email for updates.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support. We’re confident that with sensible precautions, we can keep the club a safe and positive place for the children to enjoy badminton.

Kind regards,

Albury Junior Badminton
