COVIDSafe Sport & Recreation

Clubs and organisations need to be able to access and understand the latest and best use resources to enjoy their sport and recreation in the ongoing COVID-19 environment. We recommend you contact your relevant State Sporting Association (SSA) or National Sporting Organisation (NSO) for any sport specific considerations that may be applicable to your circumstances – you can find a list of most SSA’s and NSO’s on our website HERE.

NOTE: It is important to ensure that you are up-to-date with the latest State Government guidelines for any sport or active recreation. For current guidelines, check:

When implementing a Return to Play or a COVIDSafe Plan, it is important that the 6 COVIDSafe principles are identified and addressed:

  • Ensure physical distancing
  • Wear a face mask
  • Practice good hygiene
  • Keep records and act quickly if participants, volunteers or organisers become unwell
  • Avoid interactions in enclosed spaces
  • Create activity bubbles
