Travel Guidance Update

Following discussions with the Scottish Government, Sportscotland have published some changes to travel guidance specific to sport.

What are the changes?

The specific changes in summary are: -

1. If you live in a Level 3 or Level 4 local government area you can take part in organised sport, activity or exercise in that area as detailed in the Levels Table in our guidance.
2. You should however, not travel out of your local government area, if it is at Level 3 or 4, to undertake organised sport, activity or exercise (exception: u18s in a level 3 area can travel into other areas for allowable organised sport, activity and exercise).
3. At Level 3 and 4 you can travel to a place up to 5 miles outside your local government area to take part in informal exercise (household rules apply) as long as you start and finish at the same place.

What if I live in a Level 2 government area?

• Members aged 18 years or over can travel to and from Level 0, 1 and 2 areas (but not Level 3 or 4) to take part in organised sport, physical activity or training.
• Members aged 17 years or under can travel to and from Level 0, 1, 2 and 3 areas (but not Level 4) to take part in organised sport, physical activity, training and competition.

Can I attend training?

Unfortunately while the current restrictions are in place adult members who live out with Midlothian will not be able to attend training.

Hopefully the restrictions will be eased soon and we can all get back to enjoying playing hockey once more.
