Dear Clubs,
Please see latest guidance below that we have received from the Sport Northern Ireland Expert Group, following the announcement by the NI Executive yesterday.
‘Indoors – Individual training (1v1 with a coach) is permitted, however as Covid is spread by respiratory droplets exercise activities that have high levels of exertion (i.e. that cause participants to get out of breath) are not permitted at this time. It must be noted however that organisers are responsible for selection of permissible activities.
The 15 people limit would include the coaches: it may also be worth acknowledging that although perhaps not ideal for Boxing training, outdoor exercise in groups of 15 is permitted and would enable contact training to occur. More people can attend where a gathering has been organised or operated for recreational and sporting purposes subject to a risk assessment and measures being in place to limit the risk of virus transmission’.
We understand this may not be fully definite, however this is the latest advice we have as of this afternoon. Please see link below from the NI Direct website for full details:
If there is anything you need clarification on, please let us know and we will consult the Sport NI Expert Group.
