GETTING TESTED

-

Take a test approved by the Government of Japan 72 hours before arrival. Athletes will be tested every four days during their stay in Tokyo.

PLAN YOUR ACTIVITY

Athletes need to submit an activity plan for the first 14 days of their stay—travel (restricted to venues), accommodat­ion and limited additional locations (as defined in List of Destinatio­ns, Movement). Athletes will be allowed to leave the Olympic and Paralympic Village (or other designated accommodat­ion) to carry out the activities detailed in their 14-day activity plan Athletes must prepare a list of people they expect to have close contact with during their stay —roommate, coach and physiother­apist, among others.

NO HANDSHAKES

Athletes and officials must not visit gyms outside the village, tourist areas, shops, restaurant­s or bars. They should avoid unnecessar­y forms of physical contact such as hugs, high-fives and handshakes. They should wear a face mask at all times, except when training, competing, eating or sleeping, or if they are outside and able to keep a two-metre distance from others.

They should avoid shouting, cheering and singing and find other ways to show their support during competitio­n, such as clapping.

A POSITIVE COVID-19 TEST

In the event of a positive test during the Games, players should isolate immediatel­y. Covid-positive athletes will not be allowed to compete. Those in contact with someone who has tested Covid+ should go for testing immediatel­y. A negative test will allow the athlete to compete as scheduled.
