NSA squash resumes operation on 1st March, 2021

 

As you are aware, as of Monday 1st of March 2021, we resume operation.

Following the statement by the Minister of Health, Mr. Constantinos Ioannou on Thursday 25th February, further de-escalation steps have been decided, and indoor activities are permitted. At this stage, courts will be ONLY open for one-to-one training with a coach. No court reservations, for other purposes, are allowed at the moment. Use of changing rooms and showers is prohibited, where only the use of a toilet is allowed.

Following these new regulations, all athletes are obliged to take a rapid test for accessing the courts. Relevant information follows:

COVID-19 rapid test:

Before you return to NSA courts:

You need to register by contacting us, stating your intentions for private training. Following this, a registry will be formed and a plan for testing for all registered athletes will be set and strictly followed, in order to meet the regulations required from March 1st onwards. Every registered athlete will be notified accordingly.

Taking the test:

Each registered (senior) athlete will need to take the COVID-19 rapid test following the timetable that we will set, and inform us beforehand on the date and result of the test.

Test regularly:

While being active, you should test according to the timetable that will be set.  50% of the registered for this purpose athletes need to test each week, and repeat the test every other week.

Junior athletes:

Test is not mandatory for ages 12-18 but we strongly suggest that you take the test in order to ensure and maintain, with your cooperation a COVID-secure environment, helping to keep everyone safe (for ages under 12 test is not required).

Reserve a court and coach for training:

This has to be done through us for better coordination. Details on pricing can be found here.

Face mask:

You must wear a face mask, unless exempt when you’re entering and leaving the premises. Athletes while exercising can remove their face masks.
