Awesome announcements for gyms and indoor physical training confirmation today.

From Monday 23rd November we can have groups of 20, and although on paper up to 150 people allowed in a centre, our club density of 1 per 4 m2 means up to 40. Practically we could have possibly 20 on green mat, and 10 on black mat as separate group or outdoor training.

However, as we reopen and rebuild the tribe together again it’s important for all of us to keep up our normal hygiene procedures with only a few added within the covid safe plan.

Masks are to be worn by adults in all indoor common areas.

They can be taken off for exercise on the training mat, but be in reach for leaving training mat. In certain situations of static face to face within 1.5m, however needs more details on this point as at the moment it looks like masks are off for any physical training.

Masks aren’t required outdoors unless distancing regulations are required and again, I couldn’t think rugby would be tackling each other with masks, so possibly masks pre and post training.
