Note on sports outside of sports facilities

The currently valid regulation for the containment of the corona pandemic(7.SARS.CoV-2-EindV) also allows for relaxation in outdoor sports. Due to a large number of enquiries, we would like to take this opportunity to point out the current regulations once again.

The following is permitted:

  • Contact-free exercise of up to 10 adults in documented groups on outdoor sports facilities. (§12 para. 2 7.SARS.CoV-2-EindV).
  • Exercise of up to 20 children (14 years or younger) on outdoor sports facilities (§12 para. 3 7.SARS.CoV-2-EindV).
  • Several of these groups, if each group has at least 800m² of outdoor space available on the sports facility (§12 para. 4 7.SARS.CoV-2-EindV).


The following is not permitted:
Sport in groups in enclosed spaces and in public areas such as parks and green spaces. For outdoor exercise outside of sports facilities, the general contact restriction applies, according to which a maximum of five people from two households may meet, with the exception of children under 14 years of age (Section 4 (1) 7.SARS.CoV-2-EindV).

From an incidence value of 100 new infections (for at least three days) in the district, the relaxations regarding group sports will be withdrawn (§26 para. 8 7.SARS.CoV-2-EindV).
