A Message from Baseball New South Wales Regarding the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Dear Baseball NSW Members,
In a recent announcement made by Acting Minister of Sport, Dr Geoff Lee, it was confirmed that community sports competitions may restart for ALL AGES from July 1st, 2020.
The announcement came as the NSW Government lifts more COVID-19 restrictions for sporting participation around the state. Until the most recent changes come into effect, Baseball NSW continues to request that all participants adhere to the current Public Health Order and follow the prescribed procedures from our 22nd of May update – Return to Sport in NSW (click here for the announcement).
Upon return to competition, participants are to take note of the following:
- Current spacing zone requirements will no longer be applicable.
- Participants may have full use of the fields.
- The ‘one person per four-square meter’ rule must be applied at all times.
We encourage our members to follow the recommended physical distancing measures of 1.5 meters, whilst continuing to practice good hygiene. Baseball NSW will continue to work closely with the Office of Sport and other authorities to provide our members with the necessary guidelines to ensure a safe return to sport.
Sport NSW
