<p>Sport and physical activity are incredibly important for our physical and mental
health, and are a vital weapon against coronavirus. As the Prime Minister said on
23 November that national restrictions will end on Wednesday 2 December and that grassroots
sport can resume in all tiers. This is providing social distancing remains in place,
although there will be some restrictions on highest-risk activity in tier three areas.</p><p>
</p><p>In tier one areas indoor sports can take place within the rule of six. This
will mean four people from different households could play doubles tennis. Group activities
such as training sessions and exercise classes can take place in larger numbers, provided
that people are in separate groups (up to 6 people) which do not mix.</p><p> </p><p>In
tier two areas, indoor sport can take place within households, and people can take
part in group activity like exercise classes as long as there is no mixing between
households. People can play certain sports which do not involve close proximity or
physical contact against one person from another household, such as a singles tennis
match.</p><p> </p><p>In tier three areas, indoor sport will be restricted to within
your household only, and there should be no group activity such as exercise classes.</p><p>
