Subject to the range of public health measures outlined below, play, active recreation and sport can take place under Alert Level 2. This includes contact team sports and physical activities as long as contact tracing arrangements and good hygiene measures are in place, particularly washing and drying of hands with soap, and regular cleaning of equipment and surfaces are in place. There is also now a legal requirement to keep a record of those who attend certain facilities such as indoor public facilities (e.g. swimming pools, recreation centres etc) and exercise facilities (e.g. gyms, sports venues, yoga studios etc) through the COVID Tracer App or an alternative means. Indoor sport and recreation facilities such as gyms, swimming pools, dance studios and health clubs can open, but with extra safety measures. You will need to keep 2 metres apart from others and facilities may need to restrict numbers to help with physical distancing. It is recommended that you wear a mask at indoor sports facilities apart from when you are exercising or playing sports. Activities at Alert level 2
Community sportThe activity of community sport (for example, touch. soccer, netball and bike races) is considered a social gathering whether held indoors or outdoors, whether in an event facility or not, and can still occur as long as long as a maximum of 100 people attend (excluding workers). There is no social distancing requirement associated with participants while playing community sport. Community sport can have multiple social gatherings at the same time if the groups are contained sufficiently in separate defined spaces. An indoor facility must have temporary or permanent walls and separate airflow in each indoor space. An outdoor facility must have temporary or permanent walls (such as dividers) or ensure that all people stay 2 metres apart from people they don’t know. Facilities may wish to consider additional measures to control the separation of attendees, including separate entry or exit points. Professional and semi-professional sportFor elite, professional and semi-professional sport, players are considered employees in a workplace and are not subject to gathering rules, but spectators are considered a gathering and must obey the gathering rules. This means they must physically distance of 1 metre at all times. Indoor sport and recreation facilities such as gyms and pools such as gyms, swimming pools, dance studios and health clubs can open, but with extra safety measures. You will need to keep 2 metres apart from others and facilities may need to restrict numbers to help with physical distancing. A person in charge of a social gathering must ensure records are kept for contact tracing purposes, except where every person in a gathering knows, and can identify for the purposes of contact tracing, every other person who is a participant in the social gathering. This includes in your home, community hall or other space. You must not participate in any gatherings if you have COVID-19 symptoms or if you need to be in isolation for any reason. Public Health MeasuresContact tracing and mandatory record keepingIt is mandatory for any business or service to display a QR code for the NZ COVID Tracer app prominently at the main entry point of their building. Further information on the QR code and how to get one can be found here. There is also now a legal requirement to keep a record of all those aged 12 and above who attend certain facilities such as indoor public facilities (e.g. swimming pools, recreation centres etc) and exercise facilities (e.g. gyms, sports venues, yoga studios etc) through the COVID Tracer App or an alternative means. It is also recommended that QR code scanning and record keeping is undertaken in other places where people gather such as changing rooms. More information about these requirements can be found here. Physical distancingKeep your distance when out and about and stay 2 metres away from others you don’t know, both indoors and outdoors. It is recognised that contact during physical activity will occur but this should be minimised as much as possible, especially off the field of play. Face coveringsAt Alert Level 2 the risk of COVID-19 being present in the community is higher. It is recommended that you wear face coverings when you are indoors at sport and recreation facilities such as gyms, dance studios and health clubs apart from when you are exercising or playing sports. It is recommended that all customer-facing staff at indoor sport and recreation facilities wear a face covering while serving customers. More information about the rules applying to face coverings can be found here. Cleaning and hygieneSurfaces and equipment should be regularly cleaned and disinfected where practicable. Good personal hygiene practices should continue – wash and dry your hands before and after activities, cough into your elbow and don’t touch your face. General guidanceStay home if you’re sick and do not take part in sport or recreation. If you have flu like symptoms, self-isolate at home and get tested immediately. People at high risk of severe illness from COVID-19 (particularly older people and those with existing medical conditions) should take additional precautions when undertaking physical activity. More information can be found here. Business premises (e.g. cafés/bars in club rooms, or pro shops) can be open for staff and customers provided that they meet the relevant workplace requirements. What does this mean for play, active recreation and sport generally?Alert Level 2 allows for opportunities to engage in play and active recreation with certain limitations and allows for competitive sport, if the public health measures outlined above are implemented to create a safe environment. It is essential to make sure all the protocols are in place before undertaking activity and ensure that everyone in your club or organisation is on the same page. Please work closely with your regional and/or national organisation to get advice on how to make your activity safe. Personal hygiene is a key public health measure that will reduce the risk of transmission of the virus through physical activity. Each participant should wash their hands with soap and dry them before and after play or use hand sanitiser if this is not possible. There will also need to be regular sanitation of shared equipment. In addition to practicing good hygiene, the ability to record participants to aid contact tracing is very important. It is now mandatory to keep a record of those who attend certain facilities such as indoor sport and recreation facilities through the COVID Tracer App or an alternative means. More information about these requirements can be found here. Playgrounds, gyms, pools and public courts will be able to open, subject to meeting the above public health measures. Public conservation land is open to the public for walking, biking, and hunting but there are guidelines on the use of DOC huts and campgrounds. Check that where you want to go is open before setting off – you may need to book in advance. During Alert Level 2 there may be some refinements to the public health measures. Any implications for play, active recreation and sport as a consequence of changes to the government’s expectations and measures will result in these guidelines being updated and reissued.
