Sport and Recreation Framework for COVID Safe Activity
This document outlines the principles and strategy to deliver sport and recreation across all Sporting Wheelies and Disabled Association activities in a COVID-safe environment. The document has been developed to support the framework developed by the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) to inform the resumption of sport. National Cabinet also considered and endorsed ‘National Principles for the Resumption of Sport and Recreation Activities’ developed by the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC) which was used by the AIS in development of their framework. The Queensland Health COVID-19 website provides current information on restrictions and hotspots to be adhered to within this Framework.
This paper considers the principles that should be applied in to Sporting Wheelies sport and recreation activities – from elite sport to community sport and recreation.
There are a number of specific considerations regarding the staging of safe sport and recreation for Sporting Wheelies:
- Community sport/elite sport
- Contact/non-contact
- Individuals/teams
- Training/competition
- Indoor/outdoor
- Health/compromised immunity/disability
With careful planning and close oversight, we look forward to recommencing all our activities to ensure the physical, psychological and emotional well-being of our members.
