Premier Burt said, “As we continue to move beyond the pandemic, we have been able to enjoy the return of sport and a return of our important summer cricket events. This weekend Bermuda can again enjoy the Eastern Counties Cup Series at the Sea Breeze Oval. The Government of Bermuda is proud to support Eastern Counties Cricket Association with a $20,000 grant to ensure the event is a success.
The Eastern Counties has been permitted to allow 1,250 fans into grounds, and all in attendance must be in possession of SafeKey. Persons can obtain a SafeKey through receipt of a negative coronavirus test, which will be valid for 72 hours from the time of testing. Anyone needing a test in order to obtain a SafeKey for this Saturday’s Eastern Counties match can go to Clocktower Mall (Dockyard) Wednesday & Friday 10 am - 3 pm, or Penno’s Wharf Thursday, 10 am - 3 pm, or they can book an appointment at Bull’s Head on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, and you can book at coronavirus.gov.bm.
