· The new regulations approved by the Xunta de Galicia further restrict the practice of sports in our community
· The impossibility of maintaining courses and training normally has forced the Sailing School to temporarily suspend its activity
· The restrictions published this Tuesday in the Official Gazette of Galicia will last until next February 17
The tightening of the restrictions derived from the serious situation of COVID19 in Galicia has forced the temporary suspension of the activity of the Monte Real Club de Yates Sailing School.
The new regulations approved by the Xunta de Galicia and published yesterday, Tuesday, in an extraordinary edition of the Official Gazette of Galicia , further restrict the practice of sports in our community and make it impossible to maintain courses and activities as usual.
To the obligation to maintain the safety distance, wear a mask at all times, not exceed the perimeter closures of the municipalities, comply with the “curfew” set at 10:00 p.m. and not use changing rooms or classrooms, now add the demands that all activities be exclusively outdoors, keeping all indoor facilities closed; and are practiced only individually.
The obvious repercussions that this has on the Sailing School have forced the club to suspend its activity until the restrictions are relaxed and allow courses and training to resume normally, at which time an attempt will be made to recover the classes that have been lost during this January.
The Baitra J80 Winter League, included in the group of regional sports competitions that have been suspended due to COVID19, is also still on standby without having a return date set for the moment.
From the Monte Real Club de Yates we hope that you are all well and that the serious health situation in which Galicia finds itself today can be resolved, with the support and help of all, as soon as possible.
