Social distancing and face coverings are REQUIRED by all. Players and coaches are required to wear face coverings on the sidelines during matches. Currently NO SPECTATORS are permitted within the facility. 

Due to the Medina County Health Department and Cloverleaf Local School District limits restricting spectators, we are waiving the No Outside Food rules and allowing athletes to bring food into the facility. No large coolers will be allowed for safety reasons, but athletes may pack small individual coolers and lunch containers. Very limited concessions will be available, and resteraunts are near. Teams leaving a camp area littered or failing to perform their officiating duties will be reported to the OVR for possible sanctions. Each team will clean up the sidelines after their match. We ask our teams and family members to cooperate with the Recreation Center staff when disinfecting the venue between matches.

Team/Tournament Cancellation:

A team canceling after the entry deadline, 14 days prior to the tournament date, will forfeit its entry fee. A team canceling prior to the entry deadline does not forfeit its full entry fee if a replacement is found at cost or discounted price. A team canceling from this tournament to enter a different tournament will forfeit its entry fee in its entirety.

REQUIRED TOURNAMENT CANCELLATION: All team entry fees, in FULL, are required to be returned in a timely manner.

When a TEAM must withdraw from an event due to required quarantine/cancellation, the following policy will be enforced. As tournament hosts, we will make every effort to replace the team withdrawing and refund of entry fee will be made possible. A PARTIAL REFUND may result from this effort. As Tournament Directors, if needed we will offer a “reduced entry fee proposal” to entice a late entry. The difference in cost must be returned to the withdrawn team.

When a TEAM must withdraw from an event due to inclimate weather or unforeseen complications, i.e., power outage, safety situation, etc.: If Stark County is under a Level 3 Emergency, the tournament will be canceled. For any reason, the tournament is canceled, a notice will be displayed at the OVR Junior Tournament list. Club directors and/or coaches and officials will be contacted (phone, email) as soon as possible. Entry fees will be returned within a timely manner after a cancellation.
