Dear Pirates Members,

Please read the following email from Football SA

Dear all,

I hope that you are well.

COVID-19 UPDATE

With the ongoing challenges around COVID-19, the South Australian Government have implemented additional restrictions to assist in reducing the spread of the virus. The additional restrictions will impact clubs in relation to the serving of alcohol.

Please find below information provided by Clubs SA and please find attached a social media tile that clubs can utilise to inform their patrons of the restrictions.

• Patrons cannot stand or sit and drink at the bar.

• Food and beverage can continue to be purchased by spectators, however while all food and non-alcoholic beverages can be consumed while standing, alcoholic beverages must be consumed while seated.

• 8ball, pool and darts can continue to be played providing all food and drink is consumed while seated.

The Football Community has worked very hard to get to the position of returning to competition and we all need to continue to be vigilant in implementing the Return To Competition Requirements (as attached). Becoming complacent is not an option, not only for the continuation of our competitions but for the health and welfare of our participants.

Football SA would encourage all clubs to reinforce and remind their participants of the requirements that need to be implemented during this time.

SOCIAL MEDIA

Football SA has received a number of reports relating to participants making social media comments in relation to the performance of Match Officials. Please remind all of your participants including Team and Club Officials that posting derogative comments on social media is a breach of the Social Media Policy and the Football SA Rules and Regulations.

Any such breaches may incur sanctions.

Kind Regards

Wendy Carter
