For community netball these will be applied as follows:

Masks are not required outdoors when undertaking strenuous or vigorous exercise or physical activity (i.e., participating in or umpiring netball) but must be worn by all other patrons if physical distancing cannot be maintained.
Indoor Venues - Masks
The wearing of masks indoors is required unless patrons are engaged in strenuous or vigorous exercise or physical activity, (i.e., participating in or umpiring netball) or are exempt as per the latest WA State Government Directions.

Outdoor and indoor venues are to abide by the two square metre capacity rule, up to a maximum 150-patron limit. Please note that players (participants), coaches, umpires, bench officials (scorers & timers) are not included in the 150-patron limit, however spectators are.

If you have attended a known exposure site or are feeling unwell, please do not attend any netball venues and get tested as soon as possible at a COVID Clinic.
We greatly appreciate the steps taken by everyone involved with netball, especially our volunteers, to quickly act and communicate evolving COVID requirements to participants. We can all be proud that we have contributed to making our community safer during these challenging times.
Netball WA will continue monitoring State Government updates and provide further information to the netball community as soon as possible.
