The following requirements must be met by ALL players, coaches, managers, parents and club officials at all times. This information will change as the restriction levels change.
CLUB REQUIREMENTS FOR T3 COMPLAINT TRAINING
UPDATE: On Friday (12th June), the NSW Government announced further easing of COVID-19 related restrictions in line with the "Level B - Return to Training" phase effective from Saturday 13 June. This allows for teams to train in groups of up to 20 people instead of the current 10.
For teams taking part in non-T3 training, this means that you no longer need to split your squad into groups of 10, but can train as a single group. Importantly however, social distancing is still required and any contact with challenges and tackles is still prohibited. This means that training can not yet include full contact games.
Teams taking part in T3 sessions will still remain as per the current arrangement but we are aiming to return to team based training as soon as possible.
