Soccer players will be able to tackle in close-contact training, and boxers spar with partners, in the next step towards Britain's elite athletes returning to live sport after the COVID-19 lockdown, guidance published on Monday said.
Examples given include close quarters coaching, combat sports sparring, team sports tackling and the sharing of technical equipment such as balls, gloves and pads. The league was halted in mid-March but under 'Project Restart' hopes to get going again in June without spectators. Under stage two, athletes will still have to keep their distance before and after training and time spent closer than two metres in training should be kept to"a reasonable minimum".
