Dear Club,
We would like to welcome you back to our facilities in order for your club members to enjoy taking part in physical activity.
This page provides guidance between us (facility owner) and the clubs operating from the facility to ensure a joint commitment towards members and staff operating in a safe environment.
Thanks for your continued support and co-operation during these challenging times and we look forward to continuing our strong partnerships in the future.
Plan
- the reopening of our facilities for physical activity is due to commence in August 2021
- the facility operator will engage with the club at the earliest possible opportunity to discuss planning towards the resumption of sporting activity
Prepare
- all Clubs must appoint a COVID-19 Officer who must attend online training by Sports Scotland, no booking will be accepted without confirmation that each club has this in place prior to first booking. If your booking is not sport related, the training provided by Sports Scotland still provides valuable information on new records required due to COVID-19
- the facility will inspect the condition of equipment and identify areas/equipment for deep cleaning
- the facility will identify with the club any high traffic touch points around the facility
- the club will submit their risk assessment and plans for maintaining physical distancing for the activities they will be delivering. No booking can be accepted without a risk assessment
- the facility will prepare guidance and signage for users covering hygiene, cleaning, and health and& safety
- the facility will remove any unnecessary equipment and items from the facility and surrounding area
Protect
- the facility will liaise with the club to ensure they have processes in place for maintaining an accurate record of attendances complying with Scottish Government guidance
- the facility will have a clear, ongoing hygiene and cleaning plan in place for all fixed and moveable equipment
Review
