Shelter Island Volleyball, spring 2021, had a season like no other.
We started practice on Monday, March 1, over six months later than the usual fall start. The varsity squad finished their fast and furious season on Friday, April 16.
During that time we often played or practiced six days a week. Every Monday, all players and coaches were tested for COVID. Each time we entered the gym temperatures were taken and self-certification health forms signed. Masks were worn and physical contact discouraged.

The suit seeks immediate injunctive and declaratory relief, allowing the FECs to reopen under the same COVID-19 guidelines that have been applied to other similar businesses.
