ABA recognizes that there are differences between Canada Basketball’s Return to Sport Guidelines (specifically their position that basketball groups should be in the first phase of their plan) and the Government of Alberta’s Stage 2 protocols for participation in team sports (specifically the allowance for the formation of cohorts). ABA also recognizes that the terms Phase 1/Phase 2 and Stage 1/Stage 2 were used interchangeably between the two documents and this resulted in some confusion.
ABA is reviewing both documents and will provide revised guidelines next week.
