Exempt outdoor tennis from the list of places required to close due to Covid-19

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

This could be achieved on outdoor tennis courts where singles tennis can be played whilst keeping well apart from one another. On the court two players can keep a safe distance from each other. Let's make use of the space and the open air.

Isolation essential to the Government’s strategy for fighting coronavirus, and UK citizens must remain healthy and exercise whilst keeping adequate distance between people. The Government should allow outdoor singles tennis so individuals can play tennis in order to exercise safely.
