ATHLETES' VILLAGE

The Athletes' Village is located at Brock University in St. Catharines, ON.

ACCREDITATION

Remember when you had to fill in your personal information and upload a photo? This information created your accreditation tag. You will receive an accreditation (ID) tag when you arrive at the Games. This is your all-access pass, and must be worn at all times. This tag will provide access to enter the Athletes’ Village, the cafeteria, your competition venue(s), the Polyclinic, and more.

ACCESS CONTROL | Admission to the Athletes’ Residence and village buildings during the Games will be restricted to those who have proper accreditation. Admission will be granted to all accredited participants (athletes, managers, coaches, technicians), Mission Staff, and Athletes’ Village Volunteers. In addition to those listed above, admission to the Athletes’ Villages will be granted to medical staff and medical volunteers.

LOST BADGE | If you lose your accreditation badge, let your mission staff know immediately. You’ll receive a temporary pass until a new badge can be printed. Your mission staff will go with you to the Accreditation Centre to get a new accreditation.

INCIDENTS

For the protection of all participants, any disruptive behaviour by any participant (athlete, coach, manager, technician, etc.) will be reported to the Chef de Mission and coach. Criminal activity will be reported to the police and the respective Chef de Mission, coach and Mission designate.

ACCOMMODATIONS & ROOMS

All participants will be housed at Brock University, with a satellite village in Etobicoke for Diving (Humber College).

BROCK UNIVERSITY ACCOMMODATIONS | Rooms will vary from townhouses with individual bedrooms. Each residence building has 24-hour access control with paid overnight security. Participants are not permitted to access accommodations of the opposite gender. Mission Staff have a universal accommodations icon that allows them access in all buildings.


CURFEW AND QUIET TIME | Athletes are required to be in their rooms nightly before 12am for curfew. Quiet time takes effect at 11pm each night. Exceptions are only made for those whose competition schedule goes later then curfew. A list of exceptions is provided to security each night from the competition venues. Entry points to village accommodations are monitored by paid security, who are responsible for access control. Any participant who violates curfew and/or quiet time are reported to their respective Chef de Mission and coach.


KEY MANAGEMENT | Any participant who has lost their keys, or cannot get into their unit, must report this to their coach or Mission staff. Coaches or Mission staff then contact the Accommodations Operations Centre to get a new key cut or access into the unit. Participants are responsible for the cost to replace each lost key, no exception.


DAMAGES | Each province and territory is responsible for all damages or loss of Village property and furnishings, including accommodations keys. Any repair and/or replacement costs that are required are communicated to the appropriate Chef de Mission immediately. Team Sask will charge any damages back to the Provincial Sport Organization who will need to collect from participants if desired.
