Gymnastics makes you invincible to Covid 19

Apparently Hmm
We are in London where cases of CV19 are highest but most of the local gymnastics clubs are staying open and have no plans to close. Plus they are still offering kids’ soft play parties. At least one is even offering an Easter holiday kids club. I am outraged by how irresponsible this is. (I am also being pressured to continue to send my children to their classes which I have no intention of doing right now.)
This is an area where the Government needs to put in place much stricter definitions of social distancing.

Our local gymnastics club was open until yesterday. The owner said it's because British Gymnastics are their guiding body and they haven't made the decision or advised clubs to close. Local parents also expect/demand sessions to continue apparently. Maybe British Gymnastics should step up.

Same with our gymnastics classes, OP! Swimming is cancelled but not that. I can't understand the reasoning either. Have already pulled mine out regardless. Frankly, all those sweaty, germy hands on the vaulting horses turned my stomach before all this! All very strange.

Ours were open for squad until last night, when they also closed.
