SOPA have confirmed the 500 persons limit at SOP will remain in place for this weekend’s PL Grand Finals. Part of the reasoning offered by the Venue operator is ; “We understand there is frustration surrounding this (limit) as football crowds are higher, however football is ticketed, people are allocated a seat, and unless transiting to a concession, or amenity, they have to remain seated.

The hockey games are not like these, they are not ticketed, the crowd is not all seated, and therefore are subject to the 500 pax under the NSW Health directive. It is of note that just because a change may be released from NSW Health we are not required to implement it immediately”.

Sydney Hockey will be live streaming each PL match, beginning at 12 noon, 2pm & 4pm

SH ask that there be a prompt turnaround for spectators. If you are attending one match, please exit promptly to ensure incoming spectators can be accommodated.
