INSIDE OUT
New NZ Covid regulations gives unlimited attendances at sports matches and competitions when staged outdoors. An example is the Hurricanes and the Phoenix at Sky Stadium. Great news of course all round with crowd participation an important factor.
Indoor events are restricted at present to 200 and for good reason.
So in Dunedin the Forsyth Barr indoor stadium is used for Super and National rugby competitions involving Highlanders and Otago.
Just what is the status of this venue in regard to the lastest Covid rules? The roof cannot simply be moved off and on within hours of an event.
I think the Govt has given FBS an exemption.
Which reminds me that Sky Stadium is famous for its surround-around internal facility used for indoor events and crowd congregating before, during and after outdoor events - but this too is not restricted to 200 people at a time.
Another exemption it seems.
