Haida Gwaii Recreation Commission –
Drop-in-Sports
(Info based on HGREC FB post / January 7, 2022,
for current updates, check out their FB page or the
HGREC website at hgrec.com)
HGREC is only resuming drop-in-sports programs with
organizers that are comfortable leading a program at this
time. This may cause some delay in return to drop-in
sports. HGREC drop-in sport programs at Gidgalang
Kuuyas Naay Secondary School and Gudangaay Tlaats'gaa
Naay Secondary School are permitted to continue so long
as:
• 50% venue capacity is maintained,
• there are no spectators,
• all organizers and attendees are double vaccinated, and
• a safety plan is in place that includes maintaining
attendance, contacts, and conducting wellness checks of
attendees.
The current public health orders related to indoor adult
sport are as follows (and subject to change):
• Sport tournaments are not allowed. Tournaments
are single or multi-day events where 3 or more teams
compete against each other outside of regular league
play. This restriction does not include: A gathering where
team members compete individually against each other
+ A gathering where the result will decide if a team will
advance to play in a national or international competition.
• Other sport activities that normally take place in a sport
environment can continue, including: Participating in
an adult indoor sport or recreation program as long as
it does not exceed 50% of the occupancy of the space.
Participating or competing in individual sports like skiing,
swimming or skating. Competing in regular league play
for individual or team sport
Other requirements for sport include:
• Masks are required indoors when not participating in a
sport
• Proof of vaccination is required for spectators and adult
participants at indoor sporting events
• Non-employee supervisors, coaches and assistants of
indoor sports and group activities for people 21 years or
younger must be fully vaccinated
“As we know cases on Haida Gwaii have been cited. For
those vaccinated individuals interested in attending a
program, take time to make an informed choice that
takes into consideration the requests or advice from
your local health centres and local government when
engaging in non-essential activities. Haawa - thank you
for your patience with us as we navigate uncertain times.”
