COVID-19 UPDATE

Today the Provincial government announced that starting 12:01am Monday March 7, 2022, the following changes in restrictions will go into effect:

• Competition and events are no longer limited to the regular competitive schedule; bringing together teams or participants that typically do not play one another is allowed – for Swim Nova Scotia member clubs, this means that we can welcome swimmers from out of Province!

• Spectators will be permitted following the formal gathering limit - 75 per cent of the venue’s capacity – Clubs should work with their facilities on spectator access and limits

• Sport training, practice and competition remains at a maximum of 60 participants indoors and outdoors without physical distancing – there is no change to Swim Nova Scotia member clubs with the current regulations 

• Also, as of Monday, February 28 there will no longer be a requirement to show proof of vaccine before participating in non-essential, discretionary events and activities

• The province also announced that as of Monday, March 21 there will no longer be any COVID-19 restrictions for sport – Swim Nova Scotia is excited to host our Provincial Championships the following weekend!

 Additional details and up to date information can be found on the Nova Scotia Provincial Government webpage. A copy of today’s press release can be found here.
