To encourage Singaporeans to be more active, the government introduced a scheme in 2015 to allow members of the public to use sports facilities in schools.
However, SportSG and Ministry of Education (MOE) will be temporarily suspending this from 2 Mar onward in light of the Covid-19 outbreak.
In a statement on Thursday (20 Feb), SportsSG and MOE jointly announced the decision to stop public sharing of indoor facilities in schools, like indoor sports halls, starting 2 Mar.
This is in light of the current Covid-19 outbreak, as well as intensified cleaning and hygiene efforts conducted by schools.
The suspension is only temporary. However, authorities did not disclose when members of the public will be allowed to book such facilities again.
