In light of last week’s easing of Covid-19 restrictions announcement by the Northern Ireland Executive (20 May), the Irish Football Association can confirm the following key points:
-
Spectators can return from today. There is a limit of 500 and to determine how many spectators can attend, a risk assessment must be carried out. Spectators should continue to adhere to regulations including social distancing
-
Limited use of changing facilities is permitted
-
Indoor squad training can take place
We continue to encourage everyone in the football family and beyond to practise good hand hygiene, social distancing and wear a face mask
The Irish FA also encourages all clubs to re-familiarise themselves with the document below: ‘A Return to the Everyday Game’. This can be viewed clicking on the tab below.
