Rejected petition Let sports fans back into sports venues in Wales at all levels.

I want to go back to the football.

More details

Barbers are allowed to open which is indoors and this is by no means necessary. However, the positive affects on mental health that sports can have would be beneficial especially with sports grounds such as football grounds being outside meaning that with social distancing and masks football grounds will be more safe than a hairdressers/barbers. This would also provide a huge boost to the economy as ticket sales would rise massively contributing tax towards the senedd.
