May 5, 2021: ASA updates regarding Outdoor Sport Activities

IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION from ALBERTA SOCCER ASSOCIATION

Many of you will have watched the brief press conference yesterday (May 4, 2021) evening that mentioned the additional restrictions that will come into affect for the province and for sport.

The key to the announcement last night is that many restrictions are coming into affect immediately, May 5, but for sport the restrictions come into affect on May 9 at 11:59 PM for “high case regions”.
