UPDATE

LOCKDOWN 5.0 EXTENDED TO 11.59PM TUESDAY 27 JULY.

Unfortunately, on the advice of the State's public health team, the State will continue in lockdown until 11:59pm on Tuesday 27 July.

Relevant to our community, the following restrictions still apply:

• Rowing Clubs are closed; no access allowed. This means there is no access to social rooms, change rooms, boats and/ or gyms.
• Exercise is allowed for up to two hours and with one other person, limited to five kilometres from home.
• If an individual (or two) have easy access to their own scull, pair or double scull, and they comply with all remaining exercise restrictions, i.e. not traveling more than 5km from where they live and limiting exercise to no more than two hours in total, they may row for exercise.
• With the clubs being closed, the safety management plans are not activated, and insurance is not available.
• No Competitions allowed.

We ask that you continue to review the published exposure sites, their exposure windows, exposure Tiers and the indicated necessary action in efforts to keep the community safe.

With exposure sites now present through the state and our community this reiterates the importance to take caution and adhere to COVIDSafe protocols.

Upon return to our clubs, it is now vitally important that QR codes are implemented as part of your COVIDSafe plans to enable streamlined contact tracing to take place if required.

If you have been knowingly exposed to the virus or have been to the known exposure sites, continue to follow public health advice and COVID-Safe hygiene practices.

Rowing Victoria will continue to monitor the situation and communicate with the community surrounding exposure sites and public health advice.

Let's stay safe so we can get back rowing.
