COVID-19 Update: 22 January 2021

To Our Members,
 
Baseball NSW would like to take the opportunity to remind our members of the current restrictions/requirements that have been enforced by the NSW Government. We request that all members continue to adhere to the Public Health order.

• For community sporting activities that involve more than 100 participants, the organiser must have a COVID-19 Safety Plan for community sporting competitions and full training activities.

 

• Participants include players, people who are training, officials and spectators.

 

• More than one parent may attend community sporting activities if physical distancing of at least 1.5 metres can be maintained between people that are not from the same household.

​

• The maximum number of participants at a community sporting activity must not exceed 3,000 participants, or one person per 2 square metres (whichever is less).

 

• Record keeping for attendees must take place for all community sporting activities of more than 100 people where this is practical.

 

• For indoor areas*, the capacity must not exceed one participant per 4 square metres of publicly accessible space (previously 1 person per 2sqm).

 
*an indoor area includes an area in a building or other structure, whether or not temporary, which has a roof, ceiling or other top covering, but does not include an area with at least 2 sides open to the weather.
 
Mandatory Face Masks
 
From Sunday 3 January, the Public Health Order requires the use of a ‘fitted face-covering’ (face mask) in a range of indoor settings across Greater Sydney.
 
Children aged 12 and under and people that have a physical or mental health illness or condition, or disability, that makes wearing a mask unsuitable (for example, a skin condition, an intellectual disability, autism or trauma) are exempt from wearing masks but are encouraged to wear masks where practicable.
 
Sport and recreation organisations that have retail operations (e.g. equipment stores, Pro shops, uniform shops etc) should note that masks are mandatory in retail premises.
