Having been cancelled due to the global pandemic, the 12th National Championships has finally been concluded on the 12th – 21st March at Bishan Sports Hall.
The global disruption caused by COVID-19 didn’t stop the Singapore Gymnastics (SG) from preparing for the return of events to its arena. The organization used this downtime to reassess its strategies and identify opportunities to ensure readiness for the return of the competition.
With over 1,050 competitors, Singapore Gymnastics has successfully held its first event since the COVID-19 pandemic with preventive measures in place to ensure a safe, hygienic and comfortable environment for athletes, judges, volunteers and staff.
SG has stepped up preventive measures to ensure the health, safety and well-being of staff members and participants through event arrangements, such as floor plan design, queuing logistics, F&B provision etc. All arrangements complied with the requirements imposed by the local authority and SportSG.
All participants, coaches, judges, volunteers, contractors and SG staff members were required to wear face masks at all times and had their body temperature screened before entering the Bishan Sports Hall. Social distancing practice was implemented.
Sanitation and disinfection were carried out by the SG staff regularly to ensure venue hygiene.
