COVID-19:NSA to extend demarcation of seats across the various stadia

The Director-General for the National Sports Authority (NSA), Professor Peter Twumasi, has hinted at plans by the Sports Authority to ensure proper spacing at the various stadia across the country to prevent the spread of the COVID-19.

According to the NSA boss, the recent spike in the COVID-19 cases across the country has called for the review of measures to be put in place, and ensure strict adherence to the protocols on match days.

He stressed that the NSA will ensure strict adherence to the COVID-19 protocols in accordance with the 25 per cent capacity allowed to watch the games.

“We are in tougher times during this COVID-19. So we are putting in measures to make sure everyone adheres strictly to the COVID-19 protocols when they come to the stadium”, he said in an interview on Happy 98.9FM.

“In order to ensure that there is proper spacing done at the venue, we have done a proper demarcation so the fans know where to sit. We will make sure we will replicate this around all the various stadia”, he added.

Professor Peter Twumasi warned that anybody who flouts the COVID-19 protocols would be punished.
