In the yellow phase, organized sport is permitted so long as teams implement a means to reduce instances of close contact during play.
Sport competitions with less than 150 participants are allowed as follows and do not require GNB approval:
· Games/Competitions with one other team/group in a single day are allowed across zones provided each respective group practice together on a regular basis, or the game/competition is restricted to an intra-squad/club event.
· Tournaments and clinics with less than 150 participants are permitted but all participants in any tournament or clinic must reside within the health zone in which the event is to take place.
(This means that the guidance allowing individual sport events or provincial level clinics under 50 participants to take place is not applicable. Instead, a dual-club meet/competition between 2 consistent training groups from 2 different health zones could be allowed as per the first bullet above.
The term “Participants” includes athletes, coaches and officials. For events that do not have seating and the movement of spectators cannot be controlled, the spectators must be included in the number of participants
