Football

It’s a welcome back to junior football – seniors next please !

Junior football is back! Now we need senior football to follow as soon as possible!

The Welsh Government has today confirmed that organised outdoor activities and sports for under-18s can resume from tomorrow Saturday, 27 March, as the current public health conditions are favourable.

The FAW has communicated directly with all Area Associations, Leagues and clubs about the FAW’s Return to Play protocols, which are now confirmed and can be found in its COVID-19 Hub.

Following discussions and lobbying by the FAW, the Welsh Government have made revisions to the number of people who can gather indoors and outdoors at Alert Level 2 of their Coronavirus Control Plan.

The 30 people outdoors and 15 people indoors limits have been lifted to 50 and 30 respectively.

This is a significant development for the return of senior league competitions and the FAW is currently reviewing the impact of this change on its roadmap for the return of football.

The Welsh Government’s guidance for organisers of outdoor activities for children and young people aged 18 and under can be accessed via this link https://www.faw.cymru/en/news/u18-football-given-green-light-welsh-government/

Full information on the Welsh Government’s response to COVID-19 and further details on the Welsh Government Control Plan and Alert Levels can be accessed via the website http://www.faw.cymru
