Compliance with the rules is MANDATORY, and failure to comply may result in issues up to and including future games being more restrictive or cancelled. 

1. Each Player, Cheerleader, and Coach will be limited to 2 spectators.  Understanding this might be a large inconvenience, we expect families to work together to figure this out.   The people at the gates are not responsible for this rule, but will be enforcing it to ensure your child's season can continue. I cant speak to other communities, but if you are disrespectful, mean or verbally abusive to the people tasked with this rule, you will NOT be permitted to enter. 
2. You will be required to wear a mask at all times. Yes, we are outdoors.   And yes, you will be required to wear a mask.  Although we will not be policing this, should an issue arise of people not wearing masks, you put BBFC and the entire league in jeopardy.  
3. We will ask that families socially distance from other families. At some stadiums this will be easy, at others, in particular Hartland, you should plan on bringing a chair so you can accomplish this. If you refuse to socially distance yourself, you put BBFC and the entire league in jeopardy.  
4. There will be NO concessions.   We will allow small personal coolers.   No glass and no alcohol.   Each community has the right to inspect your cooler. If you refuse inspection, you may be refused entry. 
5. Stadiums may be taking Venmo as payment along with cash payment.   It would be a good idea to be prepared to pay with Venmo. Payment at one field gets you into ALL KVYFC games that day. 
6. South Lyon will require Contact Tracing via a scan of a QR code at the gate.   If you refuse to do so, they may deny you entry at their discretion. 
7. Standard BBFC Covid Screening should be completed Saturday AM as early as possible.   Failure to do so may result in your child not participating.  

We expect that no matter where your child plays or cheers, you will act in a manner that make BBFC proud.

MASKING RULE

Bulldogs, 

While we were practicing yesterday, the governor signed a new Executive Order (EO-2020-180 'Michigan Safe Start Amendment-1) specifically requiring full use of masks while on the play field for any sport "...That can not maintain the 6-foot social distance..."

This is a bit troublesome and in direct conflict with existing safety rules and protocols, inparticular those requiring the use of a tethered mouthguard, the accessibility of airway maintenance during medical emergencies, as well as concerns about the ability to breathe through them when they are wet with sweat or precipitation. 

We are unsure of how to proceed as the EO does not take into consideration any current rules or actual approach to how the game is conducted safely without the intrusion of executive orders. 

We will be communicating with the league for a consolidated approach.  Until we have clarity, we will require masks as much as we can without violating other health safety rules and regulations regarding required equipment 

Go Bulldogs!

Dean Ditto, President BBFC

We will still require social distancing in practices, we will still require practices to be conducted in 'pods' as much as possible. We will still continue to require DAILY screening of players and coaches as well as temperature checks.  

Bulldogs, 

Please read below, there are separate paragraphs for GENERAL INFO, FOOTBALL INFO, and CHEER INFO. 

GENERAL INFO

• Our first games will be on SATURDAY September 26th.  Times and opponents will likely not be finalized until the week prior to our first game, so flexibility here will be key.
• There will be a 6 game season, targeting 3 home and 3 away games.  
• GAMES will be conducted according to MHSAA 'Return To Play' guidelines and will include sideline cheer. 
• Each Player, Cheerleader, and Coach will be allowed two spectators to the game.

• As we are proceeding with FALL football, we will not be making plans to have a SPRING season.   If, for any reason the season is further impacted, we will make a determination on how to proceed at that point, we will NOT be speculating on that as we work hard to get the season underway. 

Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together”. Hard means with effort, determination and courage; Smart means with proper execution and poise, Together means unselfishly, trusting your teammates and doing everything possible not to let them down.
