To the Tennis Community in Victoria,

As you will be aware, the Victorian Government has today announced that some Melbourne Suburbs have been declared COVID-19 ‘Hot Zones’ and Stage 3 Stay at Home Restrictions are to be enacted once again from 11.59pm 1 July 2020.  Postcode areas classed as ‘Hot Zones’ are: 3038, 3064, 3047, 3060, 3012, 3032, 3055, 3042, 3021, 3046.

Under Stage 3 Stay at Home Restrictions you are only to leave your home for one of the following four reasons:

• Shopping for food and supplies
• Care and caregiving
• Exercise
• Study or work – if you can’t do it from home

Tennis Victoria is seeking further clarity from Government about the impact of this statement for Tennis Clubs, coaching and community competition in these areas.  As soon as further information is available we will be in touch directly with clubs, coaches and associations who may be affected.  We will also liaise with local government to ensure alignment with policy at a local level.

The Victorian Government’s full statement is available here.
