 5.      COVID-19 HEALTH & SAFETY
U SPORTS Vaccination Requirement for Championships

Effective November 8, 2021, all participants (as defined above in Section 2) will be
required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or provide a Member Institution
approved exemption granted because of a medical condition or other grounds protected
by applicable provincial human rights legislation, prior to arrival at any U SPORTS
national championship event.

All participants must either:

     •   Be fully vaccinated (14 days after their second dose of a two-dose vaccine, or
         four (4) weeks after their only dose of a one-dose, Health Canada approved
         COVID-19 vaccine series)
OR

     •   Provide a Member Institution approved exemption requiring an accommodation
         (i.e., a reason which falls within a protected ground of discrimination under
         applicable human rights legislation) prior to arrival at any U SPORTS National
         Championship event (inclusive of any ancillary events).

U SPORTS reserves the right to require any participant to provide proof of vaccination or
a valid exemption upon entry to the event. Proof can be in the form of a valid provincial
vaccine passport, a copy of the proof of vaccination given at the time of receiving
vaccination, or a letter from a medical practitioner, confirming that the participant has
been vaccinated.

Participants representing the institution who have an approved accommodation and are
not fully vaccinated must receive a negative COVID-19 PCR test result within 48
hours of arrival to the Host Institution for the Championship.

Pre-Arrival COVID-19 Testing

Fully Vaccinated Participants: While it is not a requirement, U SPORTS strongly
recommends that participants produce a negative result from a Health Canada approved
COVID-19 rapid antigen test before travelling to any U SPORTS National Championship.

Unvaccinated or Partially Vaccinated Participants: Any participant who is not fully
vaccinated must produce a negative result from a COVID-19 PCR test administered
within 48 hours of arrival at the Rugby Championship.

Individuals feeling unwell/exhibiting symptoms, who have tested positive for COVID-19
or who have been in direct contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19
in the last 14 days, must not travel to the Championship and should contact their local

                                                                                            Bulletin # 3

health authority for further direction.

In Championship COVID-19 Testing

All participants must produce a negative result on a COVID-19 rapid test to be taken
upon arrival at the Championship (Day 0) and on designated testing days outlined
in the U SPORTS COVID-19 Health & Safety Protocols document.

The rapid test kits (Abbott Panbio COVID-19 Ag Rapid Test Device – Nasal Swab) will
be provided by U SPORTS via the Host Committee on arrival to the championship. It is
the responsibility of each participating team to administer and read the results of their own
team’s rapid tests.

An instructional manual is included with each box of testing kits, and a video on how to
administer and read the tests can be found here: https://youtu.be/mZYr4Rmj3OE.

Testing must be done before accessing the Host’s campus, championship facilities,
services or participating in any championship activities (inclusive of and not limited to
practice sessions, meetings, awards celebrations, ancillary events and games).

Anyone testing positive for COVID-19 must immediately be masked and isolated and the
Host’s COVID Management Team notified.

Other COVID-19 Protocols and Requirements

In addition to testing and vaccination requirements, other health and safety protocols are
in place at the Championship for the protection of all participants and the community.
These protocols include, but are not limited to, masking, physical distancing, and capacity
limitations.

Further details on health and safety protocols are included in the U SPORTS COVID-19
Health & Safety Protocols for National Championships document. It is the
responsibility of each participating team to have reviewed and to ensure they understand
the protocols outlined in the document.

In addition to the U SPORTS protocols, Host Institutions have their own COVID-19
Protocols that must be followed by all teams, participants and representatives attending
the Championship. It is the responsibility of the participating teams to ensure they are
aware of and understand these protocols.

Please note that the COVID-19 pandemic is an ever-changing landscape and as
such the health and safety protocols and requirements for U SPORTS National
Championships are subject to change, as new information becomes available.

FANS ZONE
1. COVID-19 HEALTH & SAFETY

  A. Gouvernement du Quebec COVID-19 requirements :

     All spectators will need to :

       -   Be fully vaccinated (14 days after their second dose of a two-dose, or
           their only dose of a one-dose, Health Canada approved COVID-19
           vaccine series); OR
       -   Provide a valid basis for an accommodation (i.e., a reason which falls
           within a protected ground of discrimination under applicable human rights
           legislation)

    A proof of full vaccination will be required to attend the game.

  B. Tailgate

     A pregame activity will take place in the parking lot in front of the Stade TELUS-
     Université Laval. It won’t be a traditional tailgate where fans can park and eat
     their own food and beverage. There will be a live band, food, beverages and an
     inflatable playground for the kids. It will be organized by the Laval University
     and a vaccination proof will be required to enter the pregame activity.
