Qld Sport & Recreation Restrictions Update as at 9th August 2021

Good morning SCHA Members:

An Excerpt from Qld Sport and Rec in relation to the recent Lockdown ending and the temporary restrictions in place that affect SCHA:

A range of temporary restrictions have been advised and will be implemented from 4pm Sunday 8 August 2021, through until 4pm Sunday 22 August 2021, to ensure the continued safety of our communities.

At this time, it has been advised that:

- community sport (including 'state leagues') cannot resume and will not be permitted for this next two-week period.

- school sport and activities can proceed with only students from the same school.

- Mask wearing is required at all times (including workplaces where physical distancing is possible) is required, except when:

* you are alone or with members of your household

* you are eating or drinking

* exercising with your household or one other person

* it is unsafe to do so.

Clarity on the operation of sport, active recreation and fitness businesses, indoor and outdoor events, will be provided once the Public Health Direction has been updated.

SCHA Board acknowledge the impact this has on our clubs and their teams as well as our competition. SCHA Board want to assure all SCHA Members we are working on a solution for our 2021 season competition and will be communicated to all clubs as soon as possible. Please be patient as we work to a positive outcome and what is best for SCHA as a whole.

Covid Update as at 29th April 2021

Hockey QLD has provided all HQ Associations with an update and clarification on a couple of Covid requirements:

​

- HQ Associations will cease using the Eva Check In app from Saturday 1st May 2021. As agreed on by Association Presidents on 28th April 2021.

- Covid update: currently we are no longer operating under an industry plan for Field Hockey (Indoor Hockey is still required to abide by the Indoor Sports Plan).  Outdoor sporting venues can resume activities as they were pre-Covid, however you must adhere to the following principles:

​

1. Check in with the QLD Check in App

2. Maintain good hygiene. Make sure you still have your hand sanitiser available and wipe down high touch points.

3. Maintain Social Distancing off the field.

4. Wear a mask in crowded places and when you can't socially distance.

​

​

From 1st March 2021 SCHA facility will not be accepting cash transactions. This advise is under the ratification of the SCHA Board.

​

Bar and Canteen transactions will be processed via EFTPOS only. This will align with our upgrade to new Canteen and Bar registers.

Register Your Business or Trade!

 

We are currently setting up a business directory on the SCHA website. The reason for this is twofold – (a) SCHA often gets Grants plus require other services and would rather put the business to our members than outsourcing further and (b) it would be a great opportunity for members to be able to utilise other members knowing the business stays within our community.

 

To register your name, please click here and submit and we will include you on the listing.
