According to V.Šiugždinis, the most difficult period of the year for sports clubs is approaching – the warm period, so only part of them will start operating from April 26 and the other part will open from autumn.
“Operators are considering not opening now, perhaps waiting for the fall, seeing the situation during the summer, out of season, and how the pandemic will continue,” the association’s head said on 15/15.
The quarantine was too intense.
In early spring, V. Šiugždinis has stated that some sports clubs, without the help of the Government, are considering closing. According to the interlocutor, at least some well-known brands did not pass the pandemic test.

“It just came to our attention then. Well-known brands like Fankas in Kaunas and Žydrūnas Savickas Sports Club in Vilnius have publicly announced the termination,” he said.
Hurry to find what to show
G. Plytnikas, director of Forum Cinemas, says he welcomes the government’s permission to resume operations, but has so far unanswered questions: why this sector has shut down at all, when various studies show a particularly low risk of developing the disease. .
Getting upset with what is already a pirate nukrekinta and built into stolen movie servers, no need
“We have a lot of evidence that we are the ones who have not been closed in most of the world for objective reasons, there is no possibility of the virus spreading in theaters during all the global research, even staying at 100%. turns. This is because we have a large volume and it is very well ventilated: 26 cubic meters per person, regardless of the room. <...> Every 10 minutes the weather changes completely, “said G. Plytnik on the” 15/15 “program.

Starting next week, cinemas will be able to operate with certain restrictions, up to 30 percent. seats full, but no more than 150 people. The director of Forum Cinemas smiles because in such circumstances, viewers will not only see the film, but will also gain new experiences.
“Let’s multiply 26 cubic meters of fresh air by three. Almost air therapy, “he said.
According to the interlocutor, the main objectives of the company at the moment are to find new premieres to show to viewers. And what to choose, he assures, really is.
“It just came to our knowledge then. For a film to appear in a movie theater, it must perform a certain sequence of actions. Films are sold by film distributors, those films must be prepared. But even today, after talking to Some distributors, I see that we will have to offer new movies, a real premiere in the true sense of the word. And bother with what is already pirate nukrekinta [pavogta] and embedded in stolen movie servers, it is not necessary. <...> I see a very good catalog on the shelf, “said G. Plytnik.
We are well aware that if we raise prices, we will simply become clowns and no one will come to us.
Will prices go up?
A spokesman for the film industry says it will not be economically worth operating within the limits set by the government. It is said that the revenue would not be enough even if the viewer limit was increased to 50%. Still, there are no plans to increase prices.
“With any restriction, even 50%, it is difficult for us to balance.” While we continue to wait and hope that we will somehow gain support for this downtime, we believe that we will try to earn at least some of the money necessary to survive. ” , He said.

“We never play with these things and we understand perfectly that if we raise prices, we will simply become clowns and no one will come to us. No, those things are not planned ”, – he commented on the issue of price. G.Plytnikas.
V.Šiugždinis, representing the sports clubs, did not give such a specific answer, he assured that it depends on several factors: support from the government, relations with the owners and others.
“Prices are regulated by the market, because there are enough players, the market is dynamic enough. Out of season, prices tend to go down. This is usually the case. Operators are now very affected, they need any financial injection. This appeals to the fact that prices can go up if you can’t afford it if there are few athletes. It’s hard to say, it depends on the lease relationship, if the state contributes to the lease subsidy, maybe those prices will tend to stay the same or decrease “, said a representative of the Association of Health Clubs at the 15/15 show.
According to the government’s decision, cinemas can open their doors from April 19 and sports clubs can operate from April 26.
