SA Rugby president Mark Alexandra has welcomed the move by government to the scrap the last Covid-19 protocols, including mask-wearing, limits on indoor gatherings and testing and vaccination rules for those entering the country.
Speaking during the Springboks’ team introduction event in Tshwane on Thursday, Alexander said the changes will help unions.
“So it is very important for us to have full stadiums and no masks. You don’t have to produce a certificate to enter the stadiums and that will speed up the process as well because life is back to normal.”“It will be a saving for the unions, it will be a saving for all the extra stuff that we put around the stadium. But it doesn’t mean that we don’t have to practise safe social distancing — we want to be responsible.
