VWSC Families - we are very excited to be able to get back on the field and get our kids playing again!
With practices starting up soon, we wanted to give you an update on the current guidelines, policies and field layouts. This will help everyone know their roles and what is expected of them as we Return To Play.
We ALL must do our part to be able to return to play safely by following the guidelines and polices outlined below.

These are the conditions for us to Return To Play.
Not following these guidelines puts VWSC in risk of losing field contracts, non-compliance
with the WYSA/State requirements and Clark County Health.
DON'T BE THE REASON, WE END OUR SEASON
