The Province of BC announced that starting September 13, proof of vaccination will be required for people attending certain social and recreational settings and events. Formal public health orders have yet to be released, but the general details can be found at BC Gov News – mask mandate and proof of vaccination.
In the meantime, public health has been asked for guidance around how the orders should be interpreted in a sport context and details will be shared as soon as they become available.
Thank you for your patience.
