    Q –  Do these restrictions affect my league or Affiliate National Association?

    A – The exemptions to this guidance are clubs within the following leagues and ANA’s:

    • SPFL
    • Lowland and Highland League
    • West, East and South of Scotland Leagues
    • North Caledonian League
    • SJFA Leagues
    • Scottish Women Premier Leagues 1 & 2

    For the avoidance of doubt this means that the following ANA’s are affected:

    • SAFA
    • SWFA
    • SWF out with Premier League 1 & 2
    • SYFA
    • SSFA
    • PARA Football

    Thanks,  it was only because I was reading the Q&As and these two replies had me wondering

     

    Q – I live in a high risk health board area but my club is located in a different high risk health board area, can I travel there to train and play?

    A – No, if you live in a high risk health board area, you cannot travel out with that boundary to play football, regardless of your age.

     

    Q – I have players who reside in one high risk health board area, but the club is located in a different area. Can players travel between these areas to train and play?

    A – No, travel from high risk areas to any other area, high risk or otherwise at this stage following Scottish Government guidelines to play football is not permitted.

    Big News:

    https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/news/scottish-fa-statement-on-new-government-guidelines/?rid=13929

    Thursday 8 October 2020

    Following the latest update from Scottish Government on Thursday, 7 October, the Scottish FA can today confirm the impact on Scottish football as a result of government guidance. 

    OVER 18s

    ALL football activity for those aged 18 and over is not permitted in the following areas:

    1. Ayrshire & Arran Health Board, comprising East, North, and South Ayrshire;
    2. Forth Valley Health Board, comprising Clackmannanshire, Falkirk, and Stirling;
    3. Greater Glasgow & Clyde Health Board, comprising Glasgow City, East Dunbartonshire, East Renfrewshire, Inverclyde, Renfrewshire, and West Dunbartonshire;
    4. Lanarkshire Health Board, comprising North and South Lanarkshire; and
    5. Lothian Health Board, comprising the City of Edinburgh, East Lothian, Midlothian, and West Lothian.

    Scottish Government travel guidance is that individuals who live in a high risk local health board area should not travel outside their health board area. This guidance applies for players travelling for training or matches. 

    Clubs NOT located within the five high risk local health board areas noted above can continue to train and play in line with the current Phase 3 Route Map Guidance.  However, matches cannot be organised with any clubs located within the five high risk local Health Board areas.

    Exemptions for over-18s are outlined below.

    EXEMPTIONS

    Please note, Scottish Government have advised of an exemption for professional sport. This covers teams who take part in the following competitions - Scottish Professional Football League, Highland League, Lowland League, SWF PL 1 & 2, West of Scotland Leagues, East of Scotland Leagues, South of Scotland League, North Caledonian League and SJFA Leagues. These competitions can continue in line with relevant guidance and protocols. This exemption also covers Scotland National Team fixtures at Men’s A, SWNT and Under-21 level.

    UNDER 18s 

    Teams, with players aged 17 and under, located within the five high risk local Health Board areas can only take part in training or matches within the same local health board area.

    Players who live within a high risk local health board area should not travel out with that local health board area for training or matches as per Scottish Government guidance.

    Teams, with players aged 17 and under, located in any non-high risk local Health Board areas can organise training or matches within any other non-high risk local health board area.

    Players who live within a non-high risk local health board area can travel into other non-high risk local health board areas for training or matches.

    Players who live within a non-high risk local health board area should not travel into a high risk local health board area for training or matches.

    These restrictions are in place from Saturday 10 October and will remain in place until midnight on Sunday 25 October at the earliest.

    Confused.  Club is in one high risk area and player lives in a different high risk area.  Is the player exempt from all restrictions if club is.  Only reason I am asking is if you go into the Q & A session on the SFA website,  the question is asked by a player and the answer given is NO you cannot travel to train or play.
