Dave Holcomb – New Normal when you reopen
Dave is one of the leaders I’ve followed on how to reopen safely.
Dealing with parents is his main challenge right now.
For example, parent viewing. He’s asking parents to watch on their phones using an app called Spot TV. It’s a partner program with their club’s Jackrabbit software.
On spotting, Dave is aware of clubs offering classes with no spotting.
His club is going to require coaches who spot to wear masks when they do. In addition, his staff can wear masks whenever they wish.
Also, parents will fill out an additional release form confirming they allow coaches to spot their child.
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube. (43min). There are a few sections of frozen video, including the last few minutes – the usual technical glitches.
