COVID POLICY
We want to thank you in advance for playing your vital part in helping our great game get going again. By observing Government guidance and the football-specific protocols, let’s work together to ensure the transition back to enjoying football is as smooth and safe as possible. Naturally, we’ll provide any updates if any are required going forward.
The Prime Minister has confirmed new temporary and precautionary measures following the emergence of the Omicron variant in the UK. The Government has now confirmed that all contacts of suspected Omicron cases must self-isolate, regardless of their vaccination status. You will be contacted by NHS Test and Trace.
​
From Tuesday 30th November all face coverings were made compulsory in shops and on public transport.
The vaccination programme and test, trace and isolate system continue to be the most effective way of reducing transmission, along with practicing good hygiene, keeping spaces well ventilated, and wearing a face covering in enclosed or crowded spaces.
Your health and safety is of paramount importance to us - we all have a duty to safeguard the health and safety of all attendees, their families and the wider community. This includes the way people conduct themselves in and out of the premises we operate in relation to preventing the spread of COVID-19.
