COVID Update 23 April 2020

Posted: 23/04/20

April 23, 2020

Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, all Squash Clubs are currently closed.  As per the government’s guidelines, while we are at Alert level 3 & 4 all public facilities must be closed.  We are hopeful that when/if we move to Alert Level 2, we will be able to re-open clubs in some capacity following strict guidelines.  At this stage, we expect Level 1 to be when we can resume interclub and open club tournaments.  Once we have some more clarity around when this is likely to be, we will begin rescheduling affected tournaments for later in the year.

We will be following the Government’s guidelines when they are updated.

See below for the current Alert Levels and how they affect Squash.

Please note: These guidelines may change on any given date, depending on what new information is released by the government in their daily briefing, but we hope it will give clubs some ideas and starters for what will need to be done upon reopening when that happens.  We will communicate any information that comes to hand that vastly differs from the document as soon as possible.
