Es gelten die folgenden Sicherheitsvorkehrungen und Regeln:

  • Mögliche Maskenpflicht/3G-Kontrollen: Wir behalten uns das Recht vor, eine Maskenpflicht (medizinische Maske/FFP2-Maske) durchzusetzen oder 3G-Kontrollen durchzuführen, sofern die pandemische Lage dies erfordert. Die endgültige Entscheidung dazu wird 1-2 Wochen vor dem Wettbewerb getroffen und spätestens am 26. März auf der Website vermerkt sowie den Teilnehmern in einer Rundmail mitgeteilt.
  • Symptome: Personen, die am Tag des Wettbewerbs Covid-Symptome wie Fieber, Husten oder Abgeschlagenheit zeigen und in der Woche vor dem Wettbewerb mit einem Covid-19-Erkrankten Kontakt hatten, dürfen die Venue nicht betreten und nicht am Wettbewerb teilnehmen. Wer in der Woche vor dem Wettbewerb mit einem Covid-19-Erkrankten Kontakt hatte ODER geringfügige Covid-Symptome wie Husten oder Abgeschlagenheit zeigt, muss vor dem Wettbewerb einen Selbsttest/zertifizierten Schnelltest ("Bürgertest") machen, der natürlich negativ ausfallen muss.

Achtung: Die oben genannten Regeln dienen der Durchführung einer sicheren Veranstaltung für alle Teilnehmer. Nichtbeachten der Regeln und mutwilliges oder wiederholtes Zuwiderhandeln führen zur Disqualifikation und Ausschluss von der Veranstaltung.

Die obigen Regeln erfüllen die aktuell gültige Corona-Schutzverordnung in Nordrhein-Westfalen in vollem Umfang. Bitte beachte, dass wir keinen Einfluss auf gesetzliche Regelungen haben. Sollte es kurzfristig zu Änderungen kommen wegen denen wir unsere COVID-Sicherheits-Richtlinien verschärfen, oder den Wettbewerb sogar komplett absagen müssen, werden alle Teilnehmer per E-Mail benachrichtigt und die Teilnahmegebühr wenn nötig zurückgezahlt.

Falls du zum Wettbewerb aus einem anderen Land als Deutschland anreisen möchtest, beachte bitte die derzeitigen Einreiseregelungen für Deutschland und leiste den dort beschriebenen Anweisungen Folge.

English

The following safety rules and precautions apply:

  • Possible Mask Requirement/3G Control: We reserve the right to require medical masks/FFP2 masks to be worn during the competition or to conduct 3G controls (vaccinated, recovered, tested) at the competition if the pandemic situation demands this. The final decision will be made one or two week prior to the competition, and on 26th of March the website will be updated as well as all competitors will be informed via email.
  • Symptoms: Persons that show covid symptoms such as fever, coughing or fatigue on the day of the competition and were in contact with a Covid-19 patient in the week prior to the competition are not allowed to enter the venue and/or compete. Persons that show weak Covid symptoms such as coughing or fatigue on the day of the competition OR persons that were in contact with a Covid-19 patient in the week prior to the competition have to do a rapid self-test or certified antigen test (with a negative result) prior to attending the competition.

Attention: The rules stated above serve to ensure the safe execution of the competition for all competitors. Ignoring and willful or repeated violating of these rules will result in disqualification and exclusion from the competition.

The rules above are in compliance with the laws in force (see the Covid-19 Safety Policy in North Rhine-Westphalia). Please note that we do not have any influence on the regulations set by the laws. In case these laws change and we have to alter our COVID Safety Rules or even cancel the competition entirely, all competitors will be notified via email and the registration fee will be paid back if possible.

If you plan to travel to the competition from another country, please take a look at the current entry restrictions for Germany and follow the regulations set there.
