Masking requirements until July 1st at the University of Guelph
Masks will continue to be required indoors in all U of G managed facilities until July 1, 2022. This includes the Guelph Gryphons Athletics Centre, Gryphon Field House, Gryphon Centre Arena, and the Football Pavilion.
In our facilities this means that face masks must be worn:
If you have finished 5 days of isolation and are returning to physical activity you must continue to wear a well-fitted medical mask in public for an additional 5 days after leaving isolation. If you are working out in the gym, playing team sports or participating in recreation or classes, continue to wear a medical mask for an additional 5 days to avoid transmitting COVID-19 to others.
All members and visitors are expected to arrive on campus prepared with their own mask. Facility points of entry may not be able to provide you with a mask. Masks can be purchased at the campus bookstore or at Gryph’s Locker. Bandanas, buffs, and scarves are not acceptable.
As of July 1st, the University of Guelph will pause its mask requirement, with masks no longer required indoors or outdoors at U of G facilities, including the Gryphons Athletics Centre. This decision aligns U of G's approach to masking with the public health approach used in other learning spaces (e.g., high schools and elementary schools) and work/public venues (e.g., theatres, malls). The University may reinstate its masking requirement at any time and with little notice.
With the lifting of this requirement, the need for self-monitoring becomes even more important. Remember, if you're sick, stay home!
Withdrawals/Refunds for registered Fitness & Recreation Activities (unless noted otherwise) can be made anytime by visiting Client Services or calling 519-824-4120 Ext. 56253. Refund amounts will be prorated for the classes that have already taken place and the $10 Withdrawal Fee will apply. Refunds placed back onto accounts will remain there for 365 days.
*Refunds for Certification courses must be requested no later than 3 business days prior to the start date by visiting Client Services or calling 519-824-4120 Ext. 56253. The $10 Withdrawal Fee will apply. No refunds after this date.
*Refunds for NRG Memberships & Personal Training Sessions can be requested at Client Services but must be done so no later than 10 days from the time of purchase to receive a full refund. After the 10-day cooling off period, requests can be made by contacting the Fitness Supervisor and will be approved on a case by case basis. You will be required to provide documentation.
We reserve the right to cancel any activity that does not have sufficient registration. In this case, participants will receive a full refund and notification prior to the start of the activity. It is your responsibility to ensure that your contact information (phone, email, mailing address) is current.
If the Department of Athletics is required to close due to changing circumstances: Individuals will be contacted and automatically withdrawn from Fitness & Recreation Activities. Refunds will be prorated for classes that have already taken place and the credit will be placed back to the original payment method. For original payments made by cash or debit, refunds will be placed onto accounts and once the facility can safely re-open to the public, individuals will be able to contact Client Services in order to process the refund from their account. NRG Members will be contacted and will receive a coupon for the pro-rated value of the membership. This coupon code can be used for the following memberships: Student NRG Membership, Student NRG Plus, NRG Plus upgrade, Student Towel Membership, and Locker Rentals. Each code is only good for a one-time use, does not expire, and can be used when registering online or in person (lockers must be done in person).
