Gyms, sport facilities reopen across Jordan

Monday, gyms and sport facilities across the Kingdom reopened after three months of closure due to the coronavirus crisis.

On Nov. 2, Prime Minister Bisher al-Khasawneh announced during a press conference the closure of gyms and public pools across the Kingdom, including those located in hotels and residential compounds.

On Jan. 13, the government announced that gyms and other sporting facilities will be opening on Feb. 1.

Last week, the Jordanian Olympic Committee announced the steps to be taken in order to reopen sports centers, gyms and other sporting facilities in accordance to the health instructions from the Ministry of Labor.

On the committee’s website, they urged for all establishments to follow the preventative measures set in place by the Ministry of Labor and the Ministry of Health in order to prevent further infections.

The committee clarified that those who wish to reopen their establishments should go to the Jordanian Olympic Committee Amman Hall to sign the necessary pledges in order to obtain a certificate of commitment to the health protocols.

Whoever will sign the pledges must bring the appropriate identification and registration documents.
