NHSC Guidelines on Return of Spectators to GAA Club Games

Spectators should be aware that all the risks posed from Covid-19 cannot be eliminated, including attending GAA games but that essential control measures have been put in place to reduce risks for members.

• Spectators must not attend games if they display any symptoms of Covid-19 and instead should phone their GP and follow public health advice
• Individuals that are considered high risk or are in close contact with others who are considered high risk should not attend games (click here)
• Individuals must be informed that much of the responsibility for managing Covid-19 risk remains with themselves particularly in relation to social distancing, wearing of face coverings and sanitation
• All spectators should be encouraged to bring their own hand sanitiser
• The use of face coverings is strongly advised for all patrons over the age of 13
• Spectators must not enter the field of play at any time including pre-match, at half-time and other intervals and after the final whistle or at end-of-match presentations
• Spectators should be advised to keep their own record of contacts at a match for potential tracing purposes
• All spectators should be encouraged to download the HSE tracing app (click here)

Social Distancing

• The current public health guidance advises a social distance of 2m be maintained between people. Further government guidance may change and the GAA’s assessment method may change as a result.
• Where small groups of people are attending games, members of these should wherever possible be from the same household
• Individuals and small groups should remain insofar as possible in the same area for the duration of the game, remain 2m apart and avoid intermingling with other individuals or groups
• Before, between and after games it is essential that spectators do not congregate in groups in the vicinity of the grounds as social distancing and contact tracing measures will be compromised and the potential risk of transmission higher

Medical Protocols

• Should any patron present to staff or stewards with any symptoms of Covid-19 either before entering or whilst in the ground they should be advised to go home immediately and contact their GP
