Activities must still avoid close contacts and maintain safe distances. Training involving close contact is not allowed. Matches, competitions, and performances are not allowed. These recommendations are in effect until 25 April.
The city of Rauma will open all sports facilities for 13 to 20-year-olds. However, the sports facilities are not open to the public or adults, but only to the guided activities of young people and children. A team can train simultaniously but it must be done in separate groups of six people.
Activities for children 12 years of age and younger continue, but no matches, competitions, or performative activities can be held.
