As mandated by the Government of Alberta, indoor mandatory masking and physical distancing guidelines continue. The Restriction Exemption Program applies to all Lethbridge Sport Council programs, events. Workers (staff, contractors, and volunteers) and program participants 18 years of age and older will be required to show the following:
- Proof of vaccination (paper or digital) along with a government issued photo identification,
- partial vaccination accepted to October 25 if received 2 weeks before time of service
- full vaccination series required after October 25
- proof of a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of service (tests from Alberta Health Services or Alberta Precision Laboratories not allowed), or
- an original (non-copied) medical exemption letter as outlined by the Government of Alberta.
Those under age 18 would not be required to provide proof of immunization or a negative test to participate in Lethbridge Sport Council programs.
Outdoor activities are not included in the Restriction Exemption Program.
These procedures and the Restriction Exemption Program will remain in full effect until the Government of Alberta rescinds the current Public Health Order and will be updated as the Orders or restrictions change.
We are also offering loanable equipment kits for home use, click HERE for all the details.
Program Overview
The Roving Gyms program nurtures physical literacy, the love of movement, and provides an environment for families to connect.
Come and enjoy free play with a purpose. Enjoy equipment designed to help your child develop fundamental movement skills, the precursors for healthy living. When confident and competent in these skills, children can develop sport-specific and complex movement skills. These skills allow children to enjoy sports and physical activities that have been connected to healthier living.
