All national events including engagement days, para-sport festivals and national championships will remain cancelled until the end of March 2021. A further review will take place in February to determine the position from April 2021. All education and training sessions will continue to take place online with a further review for face-to-face delivery in February. As a multi-sport organisation advice from sportscotland, the sport-specific governing bodies, Active Scotland and the Scottish Government has been considered. This decision is to provide clarity for Branches and clubs to allow them to communicate effectively with their members.
The return of regional and national squad training will be considered on a case by case basis depending on the nature of the sport, the environment and the underlying health conditions of the athletes. Guidance and advice from sportscotland, the sport-specific governing bodies, Active Scotland and the Scottish Government will also be considered. SDS will provide ongoing support and guidance on the return to sport in Scotland. It is a rapidly changing environment and SDS will endeavour to keep you up to date throughout.
All Scottish boccia clubs should follow the Return to Boccia guidance issued by SDS.
SDS will continue to deliver a comprehensive and varied variety of virtual programmes and events to support our athletes, participants, Branches, coaches and volunteers during these unprecedented times.
