The Government will reopen some outdoor sports premises for activities involving little physical contact starting Thursday.
The outdoor sports premises that will reopen includes athletic tracks in sports grounds, tennis courts and tennis practice courts, golf courses, golf driving ranges and practice greens, bowling greens, shooting ranges, archery ranges, cycling parks, horse riding schools, and radio-controlled model aircraft flying fields.
Sea activities centres for water sports (including but not limited to canoeing, kayaking, sailing, yachting, windsurfing, rowing, dragon boating, water-skiing, stand-up paddling, diving and surfing), climbing walls, gateball courts, outdoor table tennis tables and outdoor badminton courts will also reopen subject to relevant requirements and restrictions.
Users of these facilities must wear a mask before and after exercise, except when having a shower or consuming food or drink. Each group must consist of no more than two persons and there must be effective partitions in between groups.
Staff involved in the operation of the premises should undergo a COVID-19 nucleic acid test once every 14 days, according to the government.
In addition, users are required to scan the "LeaveHomeSafe" QR code or register their visits as far as feasible before the person is allowed to enter the premises, in order to facilitate contact tracing when there is any case.
