The NSW Government announced yesterday that indoor and outdoor community sports for those aged 18 years and under will return on July 1.
"Children and young people will be thrilled they can get together with friends and team-mates again and I am sure parents will welcome the news too," Acting Minister for Sport Geoff Lee said.
A number of junior sporting groups contacted by The Border Mail yesterday had only just heard the news and didn't want to speak publicly until they had read the necessary coronavirus-related documentation.
"Sport and businesses will need to do things a little differently than in pre-COVID-19 times and following their safety plan is key to keeping people safe," Health Minister Brad Hazzard said.
A decision on adult community sport will be made at a later stage.
Meanwhile, gyms, yoga, indoor pools and dance studios can open on June 13.
