Lefteris Avgenakis was on the same panel with Tsiodra and Hardalia. After they spoke, they took the floor as Undersecretary of Sports to talk about the sport the next day and about the effort to go back to normal.

It is unprecedented and heartwarming, as is the attitude of the athletic family. Accept the Stay Home message and promote action. We gave one more step with auctions, actions and donations for health and society.

Locker rooms, showers, and indoor gyms remain closed. We put the training clothes in a closed bag and let the club take care of them.

Individual training for low-risk individual sports will also be allowed. For martial arts, physical contact is not allowed and training will only take place outdoors.

More details:
We thank our fellow citizens for their responsible and mature attitude throughout this time. We are all proud of this conquest. The discipline and restraint they displayed is unprecedented. How moving is the attitude and the offer of the sports family all this time. For the first time, the sports family, united beyond the dividing lines and outside the pursuit of performance, sent messages of optimism and solidarity to the entire society. Accept the message “Stay at home” and promote, within the framework of the “Live Sports” program, actions to promote health through exercise at home, adequate nutrition and, of course, voluntary blood donation that we carry out in our sports facilities throughout Greece. .
We went one step further. Big names in sports still offer auctions today, personal mementos of their great successes in strengthening the Ministry of Health account for treating the coronavirus. Professional athletes, coaches, federations, sports associations, associations, PAE and KAE with actions and donations support society and the public health system.
We thank you all very much, because you confirmed the timeless values of sports. Let me thank in particular the staff of the General Sports Secretariat and the administrations of the supervised agencies. Dear citizens: With a sense of responsibility, today, State and citizens, we must continue the battle without complacency. Today we are entering a new reality. The crown prince did not leave. We treat it with maturity, attention, responsibility and individual responsibility. For this reason, we have created a Scientific Sports Health Committee in collaboration with EODY, which has been working on Health Protocols, which will be updated according to developments, international experience and scientific data on safe operation and compliance. of hygiene standards in restarting sport. Today, INDICATIVELY we announce the basic principles of the health protocols and the planning of the next weeks for the gradual and safe restart of sports activity: the Health Training Protocols for * Athletes, * Coaches and * team personnel, but also for * Administrative and technical personnel The installation, for example, is as follows:
1. We maintain a list of those who enter sports facilities. We form an entrance.
2. We control the participants in the sports facilities by completing a questionnaire with their recent history. In addition to the athletes, all the others wear masks.
3. We maintain a distance of two meters from any other person. We do not shake hands or hug. We avoid touching our face.
4. We use only our own sports equipment, which we wash at home.
5. We prefer the transfer to and from the sports field with our own means of transportation.
6. We inform immediately in case we have symptoms of fever, cough, shortness of breath and excessive fatigue or that someone in our family has it.
7. If we come into contact with another person during training, we first wash our hands thoroughly or use an antiseptic and then we rinse our faces with plenty of water. Regarding the use of instruments, they are disinfected after use by an athlete.
8. We use only our own water bottles, preferably bottled.
9. Locker rooms, showers, covered gymnasium and dining rooms of the facility remain closed. We avoid baths.
10. If the team disinfects the training clothing, we keep it in a waterproof bag and leave it in the care of the club. As I said, the lifting of restrictive measures and the resumption of sports will be gradual. This period is pilot and what we announce today will be valid from next Tuesday, May 5 until almost half of the month in which we will return.
Initially, all individual trainings will be allowed to athletes who have already qualified or are qualifying for the Olympic Games, as recommended by the Hellenic Olympic Committee. They will also be allowed for athletes: teenagers and older athletes, ONLY outdoor training and ONLY for low-risk individual sports, such as:
• Tennis • Road Cycling • Golf • Horseback Riding • Shooting • Archery • Outdoor Swimming • Mountaineering – Climbing (Outdoor) • Triathlon • Underwater Activity • Treadmills, Athletics with special emphasis on individual responsibility . For martial arts: • Wrestling, • Taekwondo, • Boxing, • Judo, • Karate, • Ziou Zitsu, • Pankration, • Kick Boxing, etc., only physical training (outdoors) is allowed. Of course without contact and keeping your distance! Next year, track and field sports will be allowed in swimming pools, water skiing and beach sports, such as beach volleyball.
As at a later time, care will be taken with athletes with disabilities. And because I am often asked about the evolution of the championships, popular sports -mainly- and especially soccer, I reply: we approved a provision that allows the organizing authorities to decide whether to stop their championships or complete them next year in the summer and always according to the instructions of the experts. For the cases of the first soccer category, the training of PAE soccer teams, members of SL1, * will be allowed starting next Tuesday, May 5, * in strictly small sections of 6-8 athletes, * always in open fields, * with special health protocols, based on international data. The training will be FREE * in restoring athletes’ physical condition, * in strengthening and * in improving individual technique.
We are awaiting the final decisions of the organizers in the other team sports (basketball, volleyball, polo, handball) to examine the possibility of individual training at a later time. In any case, the resumption of sports activities (including training) will be closed. In addition, special attention will be paid to candidate students of Panhellenic students who have declared SEFAA, Military Schools and Schools of the Security Forces, so that in the next stage of lifting the restrictions and in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, they can be adequately trained for the competitions in which they will be examined. There will be special care for student athletes. For the possible completion of at least the Junior and Junior Championships of all Federations, the results of which are taken into account in the scores of those who participate this year in the national exams.
In addition, the operation of outdoor gyms that have been installed by various municipalities in parks and squares will not be allowed. We cannot give any guarantee for municipal sports events or other organizations such as marathons, mass sports, or for the operation of camps and camps. My dear fellow citizens, amateur sport is a key pillar of social activity.
You need to support him to continue to play his important role in society. After all, it is a priority of the Prime Minister himself. We are making rapid progress in creating a Registry of Sports Institutions, in order to capture the amateur sports environment and respond more effectively to the real needs that arose due to the pandemic. At the same time, Sports Center administrations across the country, overseen by the General Sports Secretariat, are ready to proceed with bold financial facilities to support amateur sports clubs and our thousands of athletes. We hope that the respective administrations of sports facilities belonging to the local government can do the same. It is true that the crisis of the pandemic that we are experiencing has created opportunities. The culture of individual sports, improving fitness and shifting to a healthier lifestyle model have been further cultivated.
This fact makes us very happy. We continue in the direction of promoting our health and I invite you to look for alternative sports and discover the joy of these activities and the infinite beauty of our country. In fact, in the transition phase from sport to the digital age, we are creating the “Digital Sports Card”. With regard to Sports Programs for All, the question of extending gymnastics contracts is being considered. However, the question of many for the complete lifting of restrictive measures and the use of all and by all sports venues cannot be answered today. The situation will be constantly reviewed and decisions will be adjusted, always based on the opinions and advice of the scientists we appreciate. In conclusion, I would like to remind you: We adhere to unhealthy health protocols. We emphasize individual hygiene and individual responsibility. We protect society and the sports family. We stay safe, we play sports responsibly. To conquer new peaks.
