BAA First to implement COVID-19 Guidelines

The guidelines officially came into effect during the BAA inter-zonal championship held at the National Stadium on Saturday. Through the arrangement, officials and athletes were requested to present COVID-19 negative tests results before entering the facility. BAA vice president-administration, Oabona Theetso told Sport Monitor that everybody who was at the stadium had tested for COVID-19 as per the new guidelines.

He said there was no pressure because they have always complied with protocols. According to the requirements for the non-contact sport, on each tournament in less than three days, random rapid COVID-19 tests will be conducted on athletes and in the event all return positive results, the tournament shall be suspended until all the athletes and only those with negative results are allowed to continue.
