The ban on sports (basketball, soccer, etc.) involving physical contact in Davao City has been officially announced. However, various strict rules are to be set. Under what restrictions were such sports allowed?
Covid-19 Task Force Davao has lifted the ban on sports involving physical contact. However, he said he had been vaccinated and that there would be a limit on the number of games. On November 30, Davao City Sports Director Mikey Aportadera said it was decided at a meeting with the Task Force the day before (November 29). However, because it is not a source of infection with the new coronavirus, there were no guidelines or resolutions for sports and related events.
“We have agreed to resume sports with physical contact, but we are quite limited in how we play the match,” Aportadera said when he appeared on Davao City Disaster Radio. He said the agency had created guidelines for basketball, soccer, volleyball and Ultimate Frisbee only, and said these games were for recreational and athletic purposes only. Tournament tournaments are prohibited. He also said that sports other than these four can be enjoyed outdoors and the risk of infection with the new coronavirus is low.
However, there are guidelines for each sport, and it is essential that vaccination has been completed at this venue, and you will be required to submit a vaccination card and QR code (SafeDavao QR). In addition, all players are required to make a reservation before the match. In addition, it is known that only players in the place where the match is played are allowed and spectators are strictly prohibited.
Infection control is also strictly required. It is also necessary to wear a mask at the time of admission, sterilize the foot bath, and check the body temperature. It is mandatory to wear a mask after the match, and it is left to voluntary response during the match. Athletes waiting on the bench are also required to secure a social distance.
Also, each barangay talked about how to manage the basketball court. Regarding this, it was decided to monitor playable courts and prohibit the use of other courts.
In this way, sports involving physical contact have also been lifted, but strict rules have been imposed. Due to the discovery of Omicron strains in each country, there are concerns about the rapid spread of infection in Davao City. I hope to enjoy sports in New Normal while following this rule.
[News]The ban on sports involving physical contact is finally lifted, and guidelines are expected to be issued next week.
