Coronavirus Advice: Return to Rowing Version Two

Following changes to the UK Government’s coronavirus guidance, we have updated our guidance for clubs, particularly in relation to group sizes.

Following the changes to the UK Government’s coronavirus (COVID-19) guidance related to group sizes, we have amended our advice for Phase B and created an updated version two of our ‘Return to Rowing’ guidance. This can be download below:

The guidance is detailed but inevitably there will be specific scenarios that aren’t covered by the guide. The document sets out some guiding principles for decision-making in these situations. If you have any further questions then please contact [email protected] or we will also be hosting a webinar on Thursday, 4 June at 19.00.

The two supporting resources available for the document, are unchanged:

• Signage poster templates for use in clubs in future phases
• Example risk assessment for coronavirus considerations

Changes to the document from the original version one have been highlighted in yellow and are summarised in the table below. The cover image of the document has been updated to make it easy to recognise the different versions of the PDF.
