Restrictions for Locked Down Areas
Can I play golf/tennis?
Answer: All indoor and outdoor sports and exercise venues in a lockdown area are closed. This means sports such as netball, golf, tennis, lawn bowls and other sporting activities which involve use of indoor or outdoor facilities are not allowed, even if they are within 10km of your home. Similarly, no exercise or sports is permitted at commercial premises during lockdown, this includes group or individual personal training. You may exercise outdoors (not recreational boating) within a 10km radius of your home and with no more than one person from outside your household if you are in a lockdown area.
