Allow golf as outdoor exercise with one other person from a different household

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

New Covid restrictions allow unlimited outdoor exercise, recreation with your household/bubble on your own or with one other person from a different household but not golf.
Two people can play golf which is outdoors, exercise and socially distanced. Prohibiting it played by two players is illogical

For the sake of our relationship my Partner needs to play golf and I need to get him out of our house. He can exercise recreationally outdoors with one other person playing as a pair or two ball. The nature of the game means that it is naturally socially distanced. To ban golf played in pairs is illogical when the Government is encouraging and wants people to take unlimited exercise.
