Coronavirus named Coronavirus 2019-nCoV or (Covid-19) by theWorld Health Organization (WHO) has spread to all corners of the globe, disruptingmany aspects of day-to-day life. The pandemic has led nations to implement stringentsocial distancing measures to prevent the spread of the virus; these include stay-athome advice, closures to schools and businesses and a pause to everyday social life toreduce close contact among people. Sport is no exception: livelihoods in the sectorhave been severely disrupted; gym, leisure, sport and recreational facilities have shutdown; professional and community sport is suspended; and major events have beencancelled. Studies show that this has many economic and social repercussions, with thesports and tourism sectors effectively shutting down, and the strictest lockdownmeasures.
