25.01.2022 Easing of Restrictions BQ has received further clarification from Queensland Sport and Recreation on how QLD's additional easing of restrictions impacts indoor sports. While we wait for our Indoor Sports COVIDSafe Industry plan to be updated, basketball can operate under the new easing of restrictions. This means:... Person limits in indoor premises will increase from 1 person per 4 square metres to 1 person per 2 square metres Seated, ticketed indoor events (including sports) can increase patron numbers from 50% to 100% * * . If you are feeling unwell and suffering from cold or flu-like symptoms or have come in contact with a known or suspected COVID-19 case, you MUST NOT attend any basketball activities.
