Since Monday, "contact-free individual sports outdoors" has been allowed again in the district. Track and field athletes, tennis players and glider pilots must adhere to strict requirements.
Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen - athletes are known to be movement people, and that's why everyone has been longing for this appointment for weeks: For Monday, May 11th, the Bavarian State Government has given the green light again for the start of activities. However, the approval does not apply to soccer, handball or ice hockey, but only to "contact-free individual sports outdoors". This includes requirements such as maintaining a distance of 1.5 meters or exercising alone or in groups of up to five people. The use of changing rooms and showers is also prohibited.
athletics
Alfred Barth is still happy that it starts again. "I already received 30 inquiries via email and WhatsApp on Thursday," reports the chairman of TSV Wolfratshausen. Security concepts have already been considered for training operations at the Isar Loisach Stadium. "This ranges from the disinfectant that has to be available, through the incoming goods inspection, to the subsequent cleaning of the areas that are being played," explains Barth. All Wolves trainers have been instructed and must also ensure that the distance regulation is observed.
Starting shot: The Wolfratshauser athletes led by Alfred Barth will start training again on Monday.
On Monday the TSV wants to start with its adult athletes, on Wednesday it will be the turn of the youngsters between the ages of 11 and 14. Barth: "The first training session for the little ones aged eight years and over should take place on Friday." The club boss is optimistic that everything will work out: "Of course, you shouldn't risk anything at the moment, but I think that everyone now has a certain basic sensitivity for have developed the situation. "
For the Raiffeisen Oberland Challenge, of which he is also the chairman, the Wolfratshauser sees black despite the now permitted start of training: "We have already canceled the running series itself." As of August 31, no major events are known to be allowed, "and it makes no sense then squeeze all runs from spring and summer into autumn ”. However, Barth hopes that the extreme competitions in Gaißach (September 5) and Schliersee (September 12) as well as the Mooshamer Waldlauf (September 26) and the market run in Holzkirchen (October 25) can still take place.
The typical distance and hygiene problem in sanitary rooms is not an issue at all for the Lenggries athletes - because there are none at the sports facility at the former Prinz Heinrich barracks. "Everyone is pawing here and looking forward to something moving again," reports Evi Stadler, TVL department head and chair of the Oberland Athletics Association (LGO). “We will definitely start training in small groups again in the next few days. It is particularly important for the children that they be employed again, ”emphasizes the official. The distance between the training participants is also guaranteed, because the long jump facility is behind one goal and the one for the high jump behind the other - i.e. 100 meters away. Stadler: "And the individual athletes can stand in line for the exercises themselves."
tennis
Wolfgang Wenus is also very happy. The Geltinger is a full-time tennis instructor and also a club player at TC Geretsried. "It's great that tennis is allowed again, but I'd rather wait until May 18th," said Wenus. The reason is the extensive requirements: disinfectant spray must be available, the benches on the edge of the field must be at a certain distance, there are guidelines on how many people can be on a tennis court at the same time and how many active people can participate in training. "It will certainly be organizationally difficult at the beginning," says the tennis instructor.
Serve: Tennis players like Wolfgang Wenus have to meet many requirements.
It is still unclear when the Tölzer Rot-Weiß tennis club will start operating again. "We only have a board meeting on Monday evening in which we want to determine the conditions under which tennis will be possible," explains Chairman Klaus Koblenzer. Disposable gloves for pullers are considered here. In tennis, too, the biggest problem is not the practice of sport, since the individual players are naturally far enough apart, but the use of changing rooms and showers. "There is certainly a greater need for disinfection there," says Koblenzer. "When the hygiene measures to be taken have been clarified, we definitely want to unlock our tennis courts as soon as possible," emphasizes the club manager.
Gliding
Even with the Königsdorfer glider pilots a lot has to be discussed before the start. "Of course we are very happy that it starts again," says Mathias Schunk. The press spokesman for the Isartal gliding group is in constant contact with colleagues from all six clubs. "It's about hygiene concepts and how we organize the winch start, for example, in which several people are involved." Flying in a two-seater is also a sensitive issue. "In principle it is possible, but there are strict requirements," Schunk clarifies. For the time being, only experienced pilots will be allowed to get back into the cockpit. “One should not forget that we have now stopped gliding for a long time. Therefore, training would be absolutely necessary for some colleagues, but we have currently suspended them, ”said the press spokesman.
beach volleyball
Lukas von Stülpnagel has already received several inquiries from his volleyball players. "The boys are almost impatient," said the head of the BCF Wolfratshausen. As is well known, volleyball is not only played in the hall, but also in summer in the sand - and usually only with two people on one side of the field at the same time. "The topic is delicate," says von Stülpnagel and refers to the training concept that the Bavarian Volleyball Association (BVV) has developed. However, this is primarily about the operation in the hall. "For example, that the active people have to keep a distance of 1.5 meters from each other and network attacks are prohibited, which is not so easy to implement in practice," the middle blocker of VSG Isar-Loisach lists. At most, contactless tactical, technical or fitness training outdoors is conceivable - but with a maximum of five people. "Actually, I would rather wait until we receive specific instructions from the BVV," says von Stülpnagel.
golf
At the Isarwinkel Golf Club (GCI) on the Tölzer Flinthhöhe, they are pleased that the facility can be used again from Monday. Of course, under strict rules that follow the rules of hygiene and keeping a distance. For golfers, a prior booking of the start time is required, and only two-person flights are left on the course every ten minutes. To avoid major traffic jams, a maximum of three start times per week and member is allowed. For hygienic reasons, the flag must not be taken out to punch in, the rakes have been removed from the bunkers and the ball washer is out of order. Furthermore, entering the clubhouse and caddy rooms is only permitted with mouth and nose protection. Distance rules must also be observed on the driving range. It is not possible to use the changing rooms and showers, the club restaurant remains closed.
Also very interesting is the note that the GCI sends to its members: "Please avoid discussions about the meaningfulness of measures that we implement to the best of our knowledge and belief based on official requirements."
