COVIDsafe: Group Training restrictions eased
The Premier of NSW recently announced that restrictions to the two person gathering rule will be eased, effective Friday 15 May. Based on expert health advice, the two person limit on outdoor gatherings will be adjusted, with the limit rising to 10 people.
Although these changes from the Government are small, they are welcomed by Triathlon NSW (TNSW) and the broader community.
Clubs/coaches who wish to recommence group training sessions MUST do so in line with all Government Guidelines, including 1.5m social distancing. TNSW has recently suggested the following to clubs regarding group training to ensure the safety of all members;
- If members are unwell they should not attend training sessions
- At no time should the training session allow for more than 10 people (coach included)
- All members must be self-sufficient (water bottle, towel etc)
- Allow for extra space within the training area to ensure social distancing can be adhered too
- Group rides of up to 10 may occur but MUST adhere to the 1.5m social distancing rule.
Please remember if you are out exercising please do not risk the safety of yourself or others.
Stay COVIDSAFE and do not let your club or training group become a COVID cluster.
