Spectator limits

Lloydminster, AB/SK – The Saskatchewan Health Authority has provided direction to municipalities to allow arena spectator limits to increase for minor hockey in Lloydminster.

The updated guidelines will see the City’s arenas provide a unique occupancy number based on the square footage and the ability to maintain two metres (six feet) of separation between spectators.

“City Council and City Administration appreciate the change in service levels for hockey players and enthusiasts alike. The recent changes are a step in the right direction; however, we continue discussions with the Saskatchewan government and the health authorities to determine how we may allow similar guidelines for other sporting activities,” said Mayor Gerald Aalbers. “Although the number of COVID-19 positive cases is slightly increasing in the province, we are confident the mitigation measures in place at City facilities will allow facilities to remain open to athletes, family and friends.”

Spectators are reminded to remain two metres (six feet) apart from those who are not within immediate family. For more information about the Government of Saskatchewan’s reopening plan, visit Saskatchewan.ca/covid19.

FAQs

Are all Lloydminster recreation user groups abiding by the same COVID-19 safety rules?
User groups must abide by the minimum standards set forth by the Saskatchewan government; however, some teams and user groups have implemented additional precautions, including wearing masks while entering and exiting the arena.
Are masks mandatory in City of Lloydminster arenas and recreational facilities?
Wearing of masks is not mandatory within the City of Lloydminster. Anyone wanting to wear one is encouraged to do so. The City of Lloydminster continues to follow the recommendations set out by the Government of Saskatchewan and the Saskatchewan Health Authority.
The Saskatchewan Health Authority says 150 spectators are permitted in arenas. Why do the Lloydminster arena guidelines indicate otherwise?
The maximum capacity in arenas is 150 spectators. The maximum capacity for individual arenas is based on the space available for individuals to maintain physical distancing in all areas of the arena.

I require additional information. Who do I contact?
