Hastings Prince Edward Public Health announced Monday that anyone involved with indoor sports in the region will need to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination.
The letter of instruction says that owners, operators, and individuals responsible for indoor facilities that host organized sports must confirm proof of vaccination for coaches, officials and volunteers over the age of 12 associated with indoor sports.
However, people between 12 and 17 years old who are entering the facilities to practice a sport do not need to show proof of vaccination.
These regulations will take effect at 12:01 a.m. on Tuesday and will remain in effect indefinitely.
The letter of instruction also says that all people associated with indoor sports must comply with COVID-19 safety regulations including masking, social distancing and contact tracing.
