As of Monday 29 March 2021, several COVID-19 restrictions across NSW have been eased as the state continues to move forward in a COVID-Safe way. Following this announcement, several changes have seen restrictions ease in the sport and active recreation sector and a change to some COVID Safety Plan requirements. The most significant change is the removal of the reference to 'community sporting activities' within the PHO. Community sport and recreation activities will now fall under one of the below categories. Indoor Sport and Recreation Activities All community sport and recreation activities that take place indoors now fall under the category of 'recreation facility (indoor)'. This includes but is not limited to all community sport and recreation activities taking place indoors (e.g., basketball, netball, ice hockey, ten pin bowling etc); gyms; indoor pools, spas and saunas; dance; and health and wellness studios (e.g., yoga, Pilates, boxing etc). Under Clause 11 in the Public Health Order, these facilities will be permitted a maximum of 1 person per 2 square metres, or a maximum of 25 persons if the space is less than 50 square metres. Gyms no longer require a COVID Safe Marshal. Under the PHO, as occupiers of an indoor recreation facility, your organisation will be required to have a 'Gyms and indoor recreation facility' COVID-19 Safety Plan. If you are hiring a facility, we encourage you to liaise with the venue owner/operator with regards to the development of the COVID-19 Safety Plan. Outdoor Sport and Recreation Activities All sport and recreation activities that take place outdoors now fall under one of the four categories below. For all community sporting activities registered as COVID safe outdoor events (see detail below), there is a new requirement for all record-keeping to be managed electronically. Community sport organisations can support this by registering as a COVID Safe business or organisation. 1. A non-controlled outdoor gathering (up to 200 people) (Clause 19) These activities are restricted to 200 people (unless the gathering is a COVID-safe outdoor gathering with a COVID-19 Safety Plan. 2. A non-controlled outdoor gathering (up to 5,000 people) (Clause 19) The organiser must have and comply with the relevant COVID-19 Safety Plan. The organiser of a COVID-19 safe outdoor gathering is directed to ensure that the number of participants in the gathering is the lesser of:

The Organiser must have and comply with the relevant COVID-19 Safety Plan. 4.

The occupier of an entertainment facility or indoor recreation facility (major) is directed to ensure the maximum number of persons on the premises does not exceed the greater of:
