*  Spectators must not attend games if they display any symptoms of Covid-19 and instead should phone their GP and follow public health advice

*  Individuals that are considered high risk or are in close contact with others who are considered high risk should not attend games (click here)

*  Individuals must be informed that much of the responsibility for managing Covid-19 risk remains with themselves particularly in relation to social distancing, wearing of face coverings and sanitation

*  All spectators should be encouraged to bring their own hand sanitiser

*  The use of face coverings is strongly advised for all patrons over the age of 13

*  Spectators must not enter the field of play at any time including pre-match, at half-time and other intervals and after the final whistle or at end-of-match presentations

*  Spectators should be advised to keep their own record of contacts at a match for potential tracing purposes

*  All spectators should be encouraged to download the HSE tracing app (click here)

Capacity:

*  A maximum gathering of 200 persons is permitted in the 26 Counties. This will therefore restrict the total capacity at GAA grounds to 200 until further notice

*  The figure of 200 includes all present at the ground, including staff, volunteers, players, backroom staff, media, contractors, and spectators of all ages
