Wondering how the latest government guidance affects grassroots football? 🤔

Read what outdoor football activity is now permitted:

[Sport England @Sport_England]

The government has released new guidelines on outdoor exercise in England. From today you can do an unlimited amount of daily exercise in groups of up to six outside, provided people from different households observe social distancing (staying 2m apart). See more 👇

From today, groups of six people will be able to exercise together as long as social distancing rules are observed.

We will issue updated guidance on grassroots football soon, in line with the @DCMS’s latest recommendations:

[ukactive @_ukactive]

'A wide range of non-contact sports such as golf, surfing, hiking and open air swimming could almost certainly be allowed without greatly increasing the risk of transmission.'
