COVD-19 has presented challenges that we have never seen before within touch and we have had to ask clubs, players, referees and coaches to comply with guidance that was challenging.  Scottish Touch would like to extend our thanks to everyone for their perseverance and commitment to public health over the last few months while providing opportunities to play.

The next phase of COVID-19 has seen the Scottish Government release a five tier strategic framework that simplifies the restrictions required to control the spread of the virus in our communities.  As previously, sport has a key role to play in maintaining activity levels and ensuring the virus does not spread in our communities.

To support this next phase of guidance, Scottish Touch has developed a guidance document that covers all five levels of the Strategic Framework.  Clubs and teams should be aware of the latest level for their local authority and read this document in conjunction.
