As per the WA government’s announcement, from 6.00pm Thursday 27 January 2022, masks are required in all indoor public settings in the Great Southern and Wheatbelt regions. This rule will also apply to anyone who has been in the Great Southern region or Wheatbelt region since Thursday, 20 January and has since travelled to another region.

Masks must be worn in all indoor public settings, including in vulnerable settings like aged care facilities and hospitals, with exemptions for people with disabilities, people doing vigorous exercise and children in primary school or younger.

From Monday 31 January 2022, proof of vaccination for people aged 16 years and over will be required state-wide for an increased range of venues which includes gyms and indoor sporting centres. Community Indoor Sport are considered exempt from the proof of vaccination mandate.

On entry, patrons over 16 years of age will be required to:

  1. Sign in digitally via the SafeWA or ServiceWA app or on our manual sign-in sheet.
  2. Show proof of your COVID-19 vaccination or approved medical exemption.
