Text of Petition:                     

Children in Wales have had a really disrupted year, regularly self isolating and unable to participate in sport. Sport is incredibly important for mental and physical well being. In England, organised training is being permitted. We feel that Wales should allow this too. Physical health also being hugely important at the moment. Our best defence against this and any future pandemic is to be fit and healthy.

Status

This petition was considered completed by the Petitions Committee at its meeting on 16/03/2021.

The Committee considered the petitions for the first time and, in light of the Welsh Government’s indication that organised outdoor activities for children will be able to resume from 29 March, the Committee noted there was little further action it could take at this time. It therefore agreed to close the petitions and thank the petitioners.
